Safety precautions

  1. Read the Manual: Familiarize yourself with the manufacturer’s instructions and safety guidelines provided in the user manual before operating the circular saw. Pay attention to specific warnings and recommendations.
  2. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
    • Safety glasses or goggles to protect your eyes from flying debris.
    • Ear protection such as earmuffs or earplugs to reduce noise exposure.
    • Gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges and splinters.
    • Non-slip footwear to maintain stability and prevent slips or falls.
  3. Inspect the Saw: Before use, check the circular saw for any damage, loose parts, or defects. Ensure that the blade guard and safety features are functioning correctly. Do not operate the saw if any issues are detected.
  4. Secure Workpiece: Always secure the workpiece firmly in place using clamps or a vise to prevent it from moving during cutting. Ensure that the workpiece is adequately supported and stable on a flat surface.
  5. Adjust Blade Depth: Set the cutting depth of the circular saw to the appropriate level. The blade should extend below the material being cut by no more than 1/4 inch (6 mm) to minimize the risk of kickback.
  6. Position Yourself Correctly: Stand in a stable position with your feet shoulder-width apart. Maintain a firm grip on the saw handle with both hands, keeping your body to the side of the cutting line to avoid injury from kickback.
  7. Use Proper Technique:
    • Start the saw before bringing it into contact with the material.
    • Allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning the cut.
    • Apply steady, even pressure on the saw to guide it through the material smoothly.
    • Avoid forcing the saw or pushing it too quickly, as this can lead to kickback or blade binding.
  8. Keep Hands Clear: Keep your hands and fingers away from the cutting line and blade path at all times. Do not reach over or behind the saw while it is in operation.
  9. Wait for the Blade to Stop: After completing a cut, wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing it from the material or adjusting the saw.
  10. Disconnect Power: When not in use, disconnect the power source (unplug the saw or remove the battery for cordless models) to prevent accidental start-up.
  11. Store Safely: Store the circular saw in a dry, secure location where it is out of reach of children and unauthorized users. Keep the blade guard in place when not in use.
