SAFETY AND OPERATING MANUAL ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS CIRCULAR SAW WU434 WU434.
General power tool safety warnings c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
the blade. b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece. c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
line of cut and near the edge of the panel. e) Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback. g) Use extra caution when making a “plunge cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.

Help to minimize your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories. Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10oC or less. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days. Accessories WU434 WU434.
Operating instructions Tilt back the lower blade guard (9) and hold it firmly with the lower guard lever (11). Place the saw blade onto the inner flange (15). Assemble the outer flange (17) and the blade bolt (18). Use the wrench (19) to tighten the bolt (18) with 1/4 turn more than finger tight. • Take care that the mounting positions of the inner flange (15) and outer flange (17) are correct.
2 ADJUSTING THE CUTTING DEPTH (See Fig. B) 4 20 To achieve an optimum cut, the saw blade must not protrude the material by more than 3mm (maximum). Lift the depth of cut lock lever (21) and raise the saw body away from the base plate. Adjust the required cutting depth using the depth of cut scale (20). Turn the lock lever (21) in clockwise direction to lock the set cutting depth. 1 2 6 21 3 ADJUSTING THE CUTTING ANGLE (See Fig.
Working hints for your circular saw If your power tool becomes too hot, please run your circular saw no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very low speeds. Protect saw blades against impact and shock. Excessive feed significantly reduces the performance capability of the machine and reduces the service life of the saw blade. Sawing performance and cutting quality depend essentially on the condition and the tooth count of the saw blade.
Environmental protection so proceed with extreme caution. Clearly mark the area to be cut. Set the depth of cut on the saw. Position the saw over the marked area with the front edge of the base plate resting on the work surface and cutting guide aligned with marked line on workpiece. Ensure the blade is not touching but is close to the work surface. The moving lower guard must be rotated open by using lever.
Plug replacement (UK & Ireland only) If you need to replace the fitted plug then follow the instructions below. IMPORTANT The wires in the mains lead are colored in accordance with the following code: BLUE =NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.
