GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING! Read all instructions

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,

re, and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed

below refers to your line-operated (corded) Circular Saw.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.

Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodied plugs

and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges

and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a

power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

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.

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for

outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electric shock.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating

a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the

inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear work gloves

when handling the Blade. Safety equipment such as dust mask,

non-skid safety shoes, work gloves, or hearing protection used for

appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Page 4SKU 97200 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before

plugging in. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in

power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A

wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in

personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection

facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these

devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it

was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the power switch does not turn it on and off. Any

power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool

accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow

persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate

the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained

users.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition that 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.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these

instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool,

taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use

of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a

hazardous situation.

Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only

identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool

is maintained.

VIBRATION HAZARD

This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may

cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms

and shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:

Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should rst

be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure

medical problems are not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women

or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand injuries,

nervous system disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud’s Disease should not use this

tool. If you feel any medical or physical symptoms related to vibration (such as

tingling, numbness, and white or blue ngers), seek medical advice as soon as

possible.

Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and

ngers, increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.

Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice between different

processes.

Include vibration-free periods each day of work.

Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it). Let the tool

do the work.

To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If any

abnormal vibration occurs, stop use immediately.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety

information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a

replacement.

Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.

Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can

grab the surface and pull the tool out of your control.

Page 6SKU 97200 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

When using a handheld power tool, maintain a rm grip on the tool with both

hands to resist starting torque and keep both hands out of the way of the Blade.

Do not leave the tool unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn

off the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet before leaving.

Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways 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.

This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.

Always use blades with a 2” diameter and round arbor holes. Blades that do not

match the mounting hardware of the Saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of

control.

Change Blade only after it has had a chance to cool down. The Blade will be

very hot after any cutting procedure.

Check Blade Guard and Guard Spring before use to ensure proper condition and

alignment. Blade Guard should move back into place easily and have no contact

with the Blade.

When Blade is binding, or interrupted in a cut for any reason, release the trigger

and hold the Saw motionless in the material until the Blade comes to a complete

stop. Never pull the Saw backward while the Blade is in motion. Investigate and

take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

When starting a Saw in the workpiece, center the Blade in the cut and check that

teeth are not engaged into the material. If Blade is binding, it may walk up the

workpiece when the Saw is restarted.

Do not use dull or damaged Blade. Dull or improperly set Blades produce a

narrow cut causing excessive friction and Blade binding.

People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use.

Electromagnetic elds in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause

pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with

pacemakers should:

• Avoid operating alone.

• Do not use with power switch locked on.

• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.

• Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

(GFCI) should also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities, contains chemicals known [to the State of California] to

cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these

chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints

Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products

Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type

of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated

area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that

are specially designed to lter out microscopic particles. (California Health &

Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)

The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual

cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be

understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which

cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

GROUNDING

Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in

electric shock.

Check with a qualied electrician if you are in doubt as to

whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify

the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove

the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if

the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it

repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not

t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied

electrician.

Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs

Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong

grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If

the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low

resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric

shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the

cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the

only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached

to an electrically “live” terminal. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet

should look like those in the following illustration.

(See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

3-Prong Plug and Outlet Outlets for 2-Prong Plug

Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs

Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special

double insulation system which satises OSHA requirements and complies

with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian

Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code.

(See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the

preceding illustration. (See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Extension Cords

Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can

use either a two or three wire extension cord.

As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge

extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a

serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.

(See Table A.)

The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.

For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.

(See Table A.)

When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make

sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Table A.)

If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate

amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.

(See Table A.)

If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the

sufx “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.

Page 9SKU 97200 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

Make sure the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.

Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualied

electrician before using it.

Protect the extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet

areas.
