4. With the blade just clearing the work piece, start the

motor by depressing the lock-off button and squeezing

the trigger switch.

5. Always let the blade reach full speed (approximately 2

seconds) before you begin to cut into the work piece.

6. Slowly lower the saw into the work piece, using the front

of the base resting on the work piece as a hinge point.

WARNING.

As soon as the blade starts cutting the material,

release the lower blade guard lever.

7. Once the base plate is flat against the work piece,

proceed cutting in a forward direction to the end of

the cut.

8. After completing your cut, release the trigger switch

and allow the blade to come to a complete stop.

Do not remove the saw from the work piece while the

blade is moving.

Note.

If the corners of your pocket cut are not completely

cut through, use a jigsaw or hand saw to finish the corners.

Using the parallel fence

The parallel fence allows you to make parallel cuts

in a sheet of wood, all at the same width.

CAUTION.

Always ensure that the saw is switched off

and unplugged from the power supply before making

any adjustments.

1. Loosen the parallel fence locking knob (Fig. L).

2. Slide the parallel fence through the parallel fence slots in

the base plate (Fig. M).

3. Adjust the parallel fence to the

required width and secure it in

position with the parallel fence

locking knob.

4. Ensure that the parallel

fence rests against the

wood along its entire length

to give a consistent parallel

cut (Fig. N).

Using the Laser system (Applicable only on

the LS1200 Circular Saw)

WARNING.

Before proceeding to use the laser line system,

Additional safety rules for laser lights

ensure that the

section is read and fully understood.

Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work

piece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough coated

surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel

or the like is not suitable for laser use as the reflective

surface could direct the beam back at the operator.

Only turn laser beam on when tool is on the work piece.

1. Mark the line of the cut on the work piece.

2. Adjust the depth of cut and bevel angle as required.

3. Rest the front edge of the base on the work piece.

4. Switch on the laser beam using the laser light on/off

button (Fig. O).

5. Align the beam with the line on the work piece (Fig. P).
