Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.

you simply pull the switch trigger without press-
ing the lock-off button. A switch in need of repair
may result in unintentional operation and serious

NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button. This can
cause switch breakage.
CAUTION:
The tool starts to brake the cir-
cular saw blade rotation immediately after you
release the switch trigger. Hold the tool firmly to
respond the reaction of the brake when releasing
the switch trigger. Sudden reaction can drop the tool
off your hand and can cause a personal injury.

Adjusting depth of cut

CAUTION:
After adjusting the depth of cut,
always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base
up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base
by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more
than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using
proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for danger-
ous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

this case, adjust the depth guide (refer the section
about adjusting the depth guide).
