CAUTION:
● Don’t remove circular saw from workpiece during a cut while the saw blade is

1. Operation of switch (switch trigger and light switch)
(1) For safe operation of the machine, a
“switch lock” is provided on the side of a
handle.
If the “switch lock” is pulled in a state
where it is pressed in the direction of the
arrow mark, the main switch can be
turned ON.
And the “switch lock” is used as the “light
switch”. If the “switch lock (light switch)”
is pulled in a state, the light is turned ON.
(2) After the switch is turned ON, even when
you release your hand from the switch
lock, the saw blade continues running
and the light continues being turned ON
as long as you keep on pulling the switch
trigger.
(3) If you release the switch trigger, you can turn OFF the switch and the “switch lock” returns
to the original position automatically and the light turns OFF too.
NOTE:
If the saw is set aside with the battery still installed, then depending on the orientation of
the saw, if the “Switch Lock” comes in contact with the floor surface or wall surface, the
light can remain on continuously. Please be aware that if the light is allowed to remain
on continuously, even a fully charged battery can be completely discharged in about 3
hours.
