surface. Support the work so that the wide portion of the saw shoe is on the portion of the
material that doesn't fall after the cut is made. Never hold cut off piece by hand (Fig. 4 ).
KICKBACK from blade pinch can result. Keep both hands on saw at all times.
• S TAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Keep body positioned to one side of blade.
Always maintain a firm grip and control of saw with both hands. Do not change hand grip or
body position while saw is running. Take precaution to avoid injury from cut off pieces and
other falling material during operation.
• VIEWING WINDOW MUST BE IN PLACE AT A L L TIMES and it must stay closed against
the upper guard of the saw at all times when operating the saw.
D A N G E R : RELEASE SWITCH IMMEDIAT E LY IF BLADE BINDS OR SAW STA L L S.
• TURN OFF AND REMOVE BAT T E RY before attempting to clean the viewing window.
WA R N I N G : Do not operate your saw if window becomes damaged or fails to stay in place
as noted above. Take your saw to your closest Black & Decker Service Center or authorized
service facility.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
• KICKBACK CAN BE CAUSED BY the saw blade becoming pinched, twisted or bound while
cutting, or when the saw stalls. When the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the
teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the
blade to climb out of the cut and move suddenly back toward the operator.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACK
• Keep a firm grip on saw with both hands at all times.
• Stay alert – exercise control.
• Support long overhanging materials. As the material is cut and weakens, it will sag, causing
a pinched blade.
• Support large panels as shown (Fig. 1). Material supported only at the ends (Fig. 2) will lead
to blade pinching.
• Avoid sawing overhead. Material can sag and will pinch blade.
• Keep blades sharp and clean.
• Use fence or straight edge guide when ripping. Be careful as the cut off strip can sag or
twist, closing the cut and pinching the blade, leading to KICKBACK.
• Don't force tool. Wood variables such as knots, hardness, toughness, wetness, pressure
treated and freshly cut green lumber can heavily load the saw which can lead to stalling.
Push the saw slower when this occurs.
• Don't remove saw from work during a cut while the blade is moving.
• Allow saw to reach full speed before blade contacts material to be cut. Starting the saw with
the blade against the work or pushed forward into cut can lead to stalling or sudden
backward movement of saw.
• Never attempt to lift saw when making a bevel cut. This leads to blade binding and stalling.
• Always secure work to prevent workpiece movement during cut.
• Do not try to force saw back on line if your cut begins to go off line. This can cause
KICKBACK. Stop saw and allow blade to coast down to a stop. Withdraw from cut and start
a new cut on the line.
• Set depth adjustment of saw such that one tooth of the blade projects below the workpiece
as shown in (Fig. 6 ) .
• Do not back up a rotating blade in the cut. Twisting the saw can cause the back edge of the
blade to dig into the material, climb out of the work and run back toward the operator.
• Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
• Some wood contains preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which can be
toxic. When cutting these materials, extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and
minimize skin contact.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: CHARGING THE SAW
1. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) bat-
tery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
3. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Black & Decker Power Packs.
Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in a risk
of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed
extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters
Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be used outside, the cord must be suitable for
outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be used for indoor work. The
letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure
each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your saw. The use of any other charger
could damage the saw or create a hazardous condition.
10. Use only one charger when charging.
11. Do not attempt to open the charger or the saw. There are no customer serviceable
parts inside. Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
12. DO NOT incinerate the saw or battery packs even if they are severely damaged or
completely worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.
13. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charg-
ing or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer
seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10
minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-
35% solution of potassium hydroxide.
CHARGING THE POWER PACK
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR POWER PACK ARE NOT F U L LY CHARGED AT T H E
FA C TO RY . BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, T H O R O U G H LY READ A L L O F
THE SAFETY I N S T R U C T I O N S .
The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power. NOTE: Do not
charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 120V AC.
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
2. Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in Figure A and let it charge initially
for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your power pack should be
fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.

3. Remove pack from the charger and place in tool. N O T E : To remove the battery from the
s a w, press down on the release button on the back of the battery (Figure B) and pull out.
I M P O R TANT CHARGING NOTES
1. After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 hours or less. If the
power pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged.
Your power pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before
attempting to use it, it must be charged for at least 3 hours.

2. DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 40°F or above 105°F. This
is important and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest life and best
performance can be obtained if the power pack is charged when the air temperature is
about 75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal con-
dition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the power pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by plug-
ging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and power
pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F to 105°F. (4) If the receptacle and tem-
perature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send the power pack and
charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using saw with its power pack
in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power pack on charge for more than 8
hours. Although overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce overall
power pack life.
7. When the battery is inserted into the charger, the red "Charging Indicator" light will come
on indicating that there is contact between the battery and charger. The light will stay on
as long as the battery is in the charger and the charger is plugged into a working outlet. It
WILL NOT flash, go out or change to a different color when the charging cycle is
complete.
8. The power pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during
normal usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before recharging.
Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the batteries.
Before operating this tool, carefully read and understand all
instructions in the "Important Safety Instructions"
section.
Battery Cap Information
Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for
use whenever the battery is out of the tool or
charger. Remove cap before placing battery in
charger or tool.
WARNING: Do not store or carry battery so that
metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in
aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc. with loose nails, screws, keys,
etc. without battery cap. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery
terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand
tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations
(HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in
suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected
and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit."

AT TACHING AND REMOVING THE BLADE
NOTE: The first time the blade bolt is removed from saw without a blade installed, it
may be necessary to place the blade wrench on the bolt head and tap it sharply in the
counter clockwise direction.
Retract lower guard and assemble blade and clamp washers, as shown in Fig. 8. To prevent
blade rotation while tightening the blade clamping screw, raise the lower guard and place
the saw down on a piece of scrap wood as shown in Fig. 9A. The blade teeth will dig into the
scrap wood and prevent rotation while you tighten the blade clamping screw. Tighten the
blade clamping screw securely, using the wrench provided. Figure 9B illustrates an
alternative method of loosening and tightening the blade by inserting a screwdriver through
