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!

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.

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
working dust inhalation and skin contact.
Follow material supplier safety data.
