WARNING:  
For your personal safety, READ and UNDERSTAND before using.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.  
 
5. Avoid body contact with grounded sur-  
faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of  
electric shock if your body is grounded.  
14. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye  
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety  
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must  
be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary  
eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.  
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  
conditions. Water entering a power tool will  
increase the risk of electric shock.  
Tool Use and Care  
15. Use clamps or other practical way to  
secure and support the workpiece to a  
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or  
against your body is unstable and may lead  
to loss of control.  
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord  
to carry the tools or pull the plug from an  
outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil,  
sharp edges or moving parts. Replace  
damaged cords immediately. Damaged  
cords increase the risk of electric shock.  
16. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for  
your application. The correct tool will do the  
job better and safer at the rate for which it is  
designed.  
8. When operating a power tool outside, use  
an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”  
or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor  
use and reduce the risk of electric shock.  
17. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it  
on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled  
with the switch is dangerous and must be  
repaired.  
Personal Safety  
9. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and  
use common sense when operating a  
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or  
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or  
medication. A moment of inattention while  
operating power tools may result in serious  
personal injury.  
18. Disconnect the plug from the power  
source before making any adjustments,  
changing accessories, or storing the tool.  
Such preventive safety measures reduce the  
risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children  
and other untrained persons. Tools are  
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-  
ing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep  
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from  
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long  
hair can be caught in moving parts.  
20. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting  
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained  
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely  
to bind and are easier to control.  
11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch  
is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with  
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools  
that have the switch on invites accidents.  
21. Check for misalignment or binding of  
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any  
other condition that may affect the tools  
operation. If damaged, have the tool ser-  
viced before using. Many accidents are  
caused by poorly maintained tools.  
12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches  
before turning the tool on. A wrench or a  
key that is left attached to a rotating part of  
the tool may result in personal injury.  
22. Use only accessories that are recom-  
mended by the manufacturer for your  
model. Accessories that may be suitable for  
one tool, may become hazardous when used  
on another tool.  
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing  
and balance at all times. Proper footing and  
balance enables better control of the tool in  
unexpected situations.  
3
 
24. When servicing a tool, use only identical  
replacement parts. Follow instructions in  
the Maintenance section of this manual.  
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow  
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of  
electric shock or injury.  
SERVICE  
23. Tool service must be performed only by  
qualified repair personnel. Service or main-  
tenance performed by unqualified personnel  
could result in a risk of injury.  
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.  
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your  
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of  
power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and  
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage num-  
ber, the heavier the cord.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
USB008-5  
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from  
repeated use) replace strict adherence to circular saw safety  
rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer  
serious personal injury.  
1. DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting  
area and blade. Keep your second hand  
on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If  
both hands are holding the saw, they cannot  
be cut by the blade.  
below the work. Do not attempt to remove cut  
material when blade is moving.  
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off. Wait  
until blade stops before grasping cut material.  
2. Check lower guard for proper closing  
before each use. Do not operate saw if  
lower guard does not move freely and  
close instantly. Never clamp or tie the  
lower guard into the open position. If saw  
is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be  
bent. Raise the lower guard with the Retract-  
ing Lever and make sure it moves freely and  
Keep your body positioned to either side  
of the saw blade, but not in line with the  
saw blade. KICKBACK could cause the saw  
to jump backwards. (See Causes and Oper-  
ator Prevention of Kickback)  
Do not reach underneath the work. The  
guard can not protect you from the blade

does not touch the blade or any other part, in  
all angles and depths of cut.  
Blades that do not match the mounting hard-  
ware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing  
loss of control.  
To check lower guard, open lower guard by  
hand, then release and watch guard closure.  
Also check to see that Retracting Lever does  
not touch tool housing. Leaving blade  
exposed is VERY DANGEROUS and can  
lead to serious personal injury.  
10. Never use damaged or incorrect blade  
washers or bolts. The blade washers and  
bolt were specially designed for your saw, for  
optimum performance and safety of opera-  
tion.  
3. Check the operation and condition of the  
lower guard spring. If the guard and the  
spring are not operating properly, they  
must be serviced before use. Lower guard  
may operate sluggishly due to damaged  
parts, gummy deposits, or a buildup of debris.  
11. Causes and Operator Prevention of Kick-  
back:  
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched,  
bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an  
uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the  
workpiece toward the operator.  
4. Lower guard should be retracted manually  
only for special cuts such as “Pocket  
Cuts” and “Compound Cuts.Raise lower  
guard by Retracting Lever. As soon as  
blade enters the material, lower guard  
must be released. For all other sawing, the  
lower guard should operate automatically.  
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by  
the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the  
motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back  
toward the operator.  
If 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 kerf and  
jump back toward operator.  
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or  
incorrect operating procedures or conditions  
and can be avoided by taking proper precau-  
tions as given below:  
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on  
the saw and position your body and arm  
to allow you to resist KICKBACK forces.  
KICKBACK forces can be controlled by the  
operator, if proper precautions are taken.  
When blade is binding, or when interrupt-  
ing a cut for any reason, release the trig-  
ger and hold the saw motionless in the  
material until the blade comes to a com-  
plete stop. Never attempt to remove the  
saw from the work or pull the saw back-  
ward while the blade is in motion or KICK-  
BACK may occur. Investigate and take  
corrective actions to eliminate the cause of  
blade binding.  
5. Always observe that the lower guard is  
covering the blade before placing saw  
down on bench or floor. An unprotected,  
coasting blade will cause the saw to walk  
backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be  
aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop  
after switch is released.  
6. NEVER hold piece being cut in your hands  
or across your leg. It is important to support  
the work properly to minimize body exposure,  
blade binding, or loss of control.  
7. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces  
when performing an operation where the  
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or  
its own cord. Contact with a livewire will  
also make exposed metal parts of the tool  
liveand shock the operator.  
8. When ripping always use a rip fence or  
straight edge guide. This improves the  
accuracy of cut and reduces the chance for  
blade binding.  
When restarting a saw in the workpiece,  
center the saw blade in the kerf and check  
that saw teeth are not engaged into the  
material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk  
up or KICKBACK from the workpiece as the

saw is restarted.  
cutting, it may cause binding and KICKBACK.  
Use extra caution when making a “Pocket  
Cut” into existing walls or other blind  
areas. The protruding blade may cut objects  
that can cause KICKBACK. For pocket cuts,  
retract lower guard using Retracting Lever.  
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with both  
hands. NEVER place your hand or fingers  
behind the saw. If kickback occurs, the saw  
could easily jump backwards over your hand,  
leading to serious personal injury.  
Support large panels to minimize the risk  
of blade pinching and KICKBACK. Large  
panels tend to sag under their own weight.  
Supports must be placed under the panel on  
both sides, near the line of cut and near the  
edge of the panel as shown in Fig. 1.  
To minimize the risk of blade pinching and  
kickback. When cutting operation requires  
the resting of the saw on the workpiece, the  
saw should be rested on the larger portion  
and the smaller piece cut off.

panel near the cut.  
12. Use extra caution when cutting damp  
wood, pressure treated lumber, or wood  
containing knots. Adjust speed of cut to  
maintain smooth advancement of tool without  
decrease in blade speed.

from the cut.  
Do not use dull or damaged blade.  
Unsharpened or improperly set blades pro-  
duce narrow kerf causing excessive friction,  
blade binding and KICKBACK. Keep blade  
sharp and clean. Gum and wood pitch hard-  
ened on blades slows saw and increases  
potential for kickback. Keep blade clean by  
first removing it from tool, then cleaning it  
with gum and pitch remover, hot water or ker-  
osene. Never use gasoline.  
14. Avoid Cutting Nails. Inspect for and  
remove all nails from lumber before cut-  
ting.  
15. When operating the saw, keep the cord  
away from the cutting area and position it  
so that it will not be caught on the work-  
piece during the cutting operation. The  
tool is provided with a front grip and rear  
handle for two hand operation. Operate  
with proper hand support, proper work-  
piece support, and supply cord routing  
away from the work area.  
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking  
levers must be tight and secure before  
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while  
WARNING: It is important to support the

workpiece properly and to hold the saw  
firmly to prevent loss of control which  
could cause personal injury. Fig. 4 illus-  
trates typical hand support of the saw.  
Fig. 6  
17. Never attempt to saw with the circular saw  
held upside down in  
a
vise. This is  
extremely dangerous and can lead to seri-  
ous accidents.

16. Place the wider portion of the saw base on  
that part of the workpiece which is solidly  
supported, not on the section that will fall  
off when the cut is made. As examples,  
Fig. 5 illustrates the RIGHT way to cut off  
the end of a board, and Fig. 6 the WRONG  
way. If the workpiece is short or small,  
clamp it down. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD  
SHORT PIECES BY HAND!  
Fig. 7  
18. WARNING: Blade coasts to stop after  
switch is released. Contact with coasting  
blade can cause serious injury. Before  
setting the tool down after completing a  
cut, be sure that the lower (telescoping)  
guard has closed and the blade has come  
to a complete stop.  
19. Some material contains chemicals which  
may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust  
inhalation and skin contact. Follow mate-  
rial supplier safety data.

OPERATION  
CAUTION:  
Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line gently.  
Forcing or twisting the tool will result in overheating the  
motor and dangerous kickback, possibly causing severe  
injury.  
When using diamond wheels, always follow the following  
instructions.  
Check the wheel carefully for cracks or damage before  
operation. Cracked or damaged wheels will cause a  
serious injury to operator.  
Do not use water. Water may get into the motor, causing  
an electric shock hazard.  
If the cutting action of the diamond wheel begins to  
diminish, use an old discarded coarse grit bench grinder  
wheel or concrete block to dress the diamond wheel. To  
do this, tightly secure the bench grinder wheel or  
concrete block and cut in it.

001464  
Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front grip  
and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If both  
hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. Set  
the base on the workpiece to be cut without the blade making  
any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the blade  
attains full speed. Now simply move the tool forward over the  
workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advancing smoothly  
until the sawing is completed.

To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your  
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly follow  
your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the tool  
back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and lead to  
dangerous kickback and possible serious injury. Release  
switch, wait for blade to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign  
tool on new cut line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid  
positioning which exposes operator to chips and wood dust  
being ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid  
injury.

Rip fence (Guide rule)  
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate straight  
cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against the side of  
the workpiece and secure it in position with the screw on the  
front of the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uniform  
width possible.
