SETTING THE CUTTING DEPTH
The cutting depth of the blade should be set to
suit the thickness of the material being cut. The
cutting depth should be approximately 1/8" (3
mm) greater than the thickness of the material
being cut.
Loosen the depth locking knob (see (15) in
know your Plunge cut circular saw on page 12),
move the depth stopper to desired position.
Then tighten the depth locking knob (see (15) in
Know your Plunge cut circular saw on page 12)
DUST ADAPTOR
1. The Plunge cut circular saw is supplied
with a dust adaptor for a vacuum. It is
attached to the dust port located at the
back end of the fixed guard.
2. Insert the dust adaptor to dust port until it
fastens.(Fig. 4)
3. Use a 1-1/4” tube to connect the dust
adaptor and vacuum can keep work area
clean while cutting.

TRIGGER SWITCH
1. To turn the saw ON, squeeze the ON/OFF
trigger switch (11) (Fig. 5).
WARNING: Never carry the saw with your
finger on the trigger switch. The saw could be
accidentally started and cause severe personal
injury.
2. To turn the saw OFF, release the trigger
switch.
MATERIALS THAT YOU CAN CUT
The circular saw is a versatile saw that allows
you to cut many different types of materials.
Some of the materials include:
Wood products such as lumber, hardwood,
plywood, composite board and panelling
Drywall.
Masonite and plastic.
NOTE: There are several different types of
blades available. Generally, blades with carbide-
tipped teeth cut better and stay sharp longer.
Tooth count and configuration are also
important. High tooth counts cut slower, and are
best suited for making smooth cuts on thinner
materials such as panelling. Use the correct
blade for your application.
GENERAL CUTTING
1. Make any adjustments to the saw before
installing the blade.
2. Clearly mark the workpiece to locate the
position of the cut.
3. Hold a smaller workpiece with a vise.
Clamp a larger workpiece to a workbench
or table
