Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw
³
and position your arms to resist kickback forces.
Position your body to either side of the blade,
but not in line with the blade.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a
³
cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold
the saw motionless in the material until the
blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt
to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or kick-
back may occur.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre
³
the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw
teeth are not engaged into the material.
Support large panels to minimise the risk of
³
blade pinching and kickback.
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
³
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers
³
must be tight and secure before making cut.
Use extra caution when making a „plunge cut"
³
into existing walls or other blind areas.
Check lower guard for proper closing before
³
each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard
does not move freely and close instantly. Never
clamp or tie the lower guard into the open posi-
tion.
Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If
³
the guard and the spring are not operating prop-
erly, they must be serviced before use.
Lower guard should be retracted manually only
³
for special cuts such as „plunge cuts" and „com-
pound cuts". Raise lower guard by retracting
handle and as soon as blade enters the mate-
rial, the lower guard must be released.
Always observe that the lower guard is covering
³
the blade before placing saw down on bench or
floor.
Use the appropriate riving knife for the blade
³
being used.
Adjust the riving knife as described in this
³
instruction manual.
Always use the riving knife except when plunge
³
cutting.
For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged
³
in the workpiece.
Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent.
³
Examine the workpiece for foreign objects.
³
Never attempt to cut nails or other metal
objects.
Instructions on service and maintenance:
Regular cleaning of the machine, especially the
³
adjusting devices for the base plate and guide-
ways, is an important safety factor.
Only original MAFELL spare parts and acces-
³
sories must be used. Otherwise the manufac-
turer does not offer any warranty and does not
accept any liability.

Setting up / Adjusting
3.1
Mains connection
The portable circular saw KSP 65 F has Class II pro-
tective insulation (double-insulated).
Before starting up, make sure that the mains voltage
matches the voltage stated on the rating plate.
3.2
Chip extraction
When cutting wood for a long period and when using
the machine industrially and with materials that gen-
erate dust which represents a health hazard, the
machine must be connected to a suitable dust
extractor unit. The inside diameter of the attachable
hose connector 3 (Fig. 1) is 35 mm (1 3/8 in.).
In Germany, extractors tested for the
extraction of wood dust are specified.
Safe compliance with air pollution limits
(2 mg/m
3
) is ensured only if the machine
is connected to a tested extractor unit
(such as an industrial vacuum cleaner or
a combination unit).
3.3
Change of saw blade
Always pull out the mains plug
before changing the saw blade.
Do not fit saw blades that are
cracked or otherwise damaged.
Use only saw blades with a diame-
ter of 180 mm (7 5/64 in.) to 190
mm (7 31/64 in.) and a bore diame-
ter of 30 mm.
Do not use HSS saw blades.
Make sure that the saw blade being mounted is
properly sharpened since this is the basic require-
ment for perfect cuts.
Proceed as follows to change the saw blade:
• Press locking bolt first 8 (Fig. 2) in order to lock
the saw blade.
