• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it

replaced by a qualied person

• Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos

is considered carcinogenic)

• Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some

wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful

(contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic

reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or

bystanders); wear a dust mask and work with a dust

extraction device when connectable

• Certain kinds of dust are classied as carcinogenic

(such as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunction

with additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust

mask and work with a dust extraction device

when connectable

• Follow the dust-related national requirements for the

materials you want to work with

• Only use a saw table provided with a switch that prevents

restarting of the motor after interruption of voltage

• Only use a saw table provided with a kerf guide

ACCESSORIES

• SKIL can assure awless functioning of the tool only

when original accessories are used

• Use only accessories with an allowable speed matching

at least the highest no-load speed of the tool

• Use only saw blades with a minimum diameter of

150 mm, a maximum diameter of 170 mm and a

spindle hole of 16 mm

• Never use saw blades made of high speed steel (HSS)

• Never use grinding/cutting discs with this tool

BEFORE USE

• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the

voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools with

a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to a

220V supply)

• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and

other elements in your workpiece; remove them before

you start working

• Remove all obstacles on top of as well as underneath the

cutting path before you start cutting

• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped with

clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than

by hand)

• Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or

call the local utility company for assistance (contact

with electric lines can lead to re or electrical shock;

damaging a gas line can result in an explosion;

penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or

an electrical shock)

• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

DURING USE

• The noise level when working can exceed 85 dB(A); wear

ear protection

• Never use the tool without the original protection guard

system

• Do not attempt to cut extremely small workpieces

• Do not work overhead with the tool

• In case of jamming or electrical or mechanical malfunction,

immediately switch o the tool and disconnect the plug

• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do

not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug

AFTER USE

• When you put away the tool, switch o the motor and

ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete

standstill

• After switching o your circular saw, never stop the rotation

of the saw blade by a lateral force applied against it

WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):

• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire

in the cord of this tool to the earth terminal of the plug

• If for any reason the old plug is cut o the cord of this tool,

it must be disposed of safely and not left unattended

USE

• Changing saw blade 3

! disconnect the plug

- take blade wrench A from storage B

- push spindle-lock button C and hold it while you

remove blade bolt D with blade wrench

! push spindle-lock button C only when tool is at

a standstill

- release spindle-lock button C

- remove ange E

- open lower guard F with lever G and hold it while you

change saw blade with saw teeth and arrow printed on

saw blade pointing in same direction as arrow on lower

guard

- release lower guard F

- mount ange E

! make sure that clamping surfaces H of flanges

are perfectly clean and face the blade

- push spindle-lock button C and hold it while you

tighten blade bolt with blade wrench 1/8 turn past

nger tight (ensures slippage of saw blade when it

encounters excessive resistance thus reducing motor

overload and saw kickback)

- release spindle-lock button C

• Adjusting cutting depth (0-55 mm) 4

- for an optimal quality cut the saw blade should not

extend more than 3 mm below the workpiece

- loosen lever J

- raise/lower foot K until desired cutting depth is set on

scale using indicator L

- tighten lever J

• Adjusting cutting angle (0-45°) 5

- loosen knob M

- tilt tool until desired cutting angle is set on scale using

indicator N

- tighten knob M

! when bevel cutting, cutting depth does not

correspond with value on cutting depth scale

• 90° Cutting angle check 5

- adjust and tighten foot K to maximum cutting depth 4

- adjust and tighten cutting angle to 0°

- check for a 90° angle between the blade and bottom of

foot with a square

- if adjustment is needed, tilt and tighten foot to 45° and

bend tab P with an adjustable wrench

• Adjustable saw line visor Q 6a

- for guiding tool along desired line of cut marked on the

workpiece

- for a straight 0° cut or a 45° bevel cut use the indicator

line concerned
