INTRODUCTION
DOUBLE INSULATION is a concept in safety, in
electric power tools, which eliminates the need for
the usual three wire grounded power cord and
grounded supply system. Wherever there is electric
current in the tool there are two complete sets of in-
sulation to protect the user. All exposed metal parts
are isolated from the internal metal motor com-
ponents with protecting insulation.
IMPORTANT -- Servicing of a tool with double in-
sulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the
system and should be performed only by a qualified
service technician. For service we suggest you
return the tool to your nearest Sears Store for repair.
Always use original factory replacement parts when
servicing.

WARNING: ALWAYS RAISE THE LOWER BLADE GUARD WLT_._I';I]'H E HANDLE
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY. See Figure 14, Page 10.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. See Pages 7 and 8.
BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE THE DEPTH AND BEVEL ADJUSTMENTS
ARE TIGHT.
DO NOT USE BLADES WITH INCORRECT SIZE HOLES. Never use blade
washers or bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade capacity of
your saw is 7-1/4" diameter.
Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
DRUGS, ALCOHOL, MEDICATION. Do not operate tool while under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication.
WEAR HEARING PROTECTION DURING EXTENDED PERIODS OF OPERATION.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequently and use them to
instruct third party users. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these
instructions also.
The operation of any Circular Saw can result in foreign objects being
thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always
wear safety glasses or eye shields before commencing power tool opera-
tion. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over spectacles or
standard safety glasses, available at Sears Catalog Order or Retail
Stores.
EXTENSION CORD
The use of any Extension Cord will cause some loss
of power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to pre-
vent tool overheating follow the recommended cord
sizes on the chart at the right. Extension cords
suitable for use with your circular saw-are available
at your nearest Sears Catalog Order or Retail Store.
Extension Cord Length Wire Size, A.W.G.

50-100 Ft. 14
SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they
are not kept clean, sharp, and properly set. Using a
dull blade will place a heavy load on your saw and in-
crease the danger of kickback. Keep extra blades on
hand, so that sharp blades are always available.
Gum and wood pitch hardened on blade will slow it
down. Use gum and pitch remover Cat. No. 9-49191,
hot water, or kerosene to remove these accumula-
tions. DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
LUBRICATION -- All of the bearings in this tool are
lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade
lubricant for the life of the unit under normal
operating conditions, therefore, no further lubrica-
tion is required.

OPERATION
BLADE GUARD SYSTEM
The lower blade guard attached to your circular saw
is there for your protection and safety. It should
never be altered for any reason. If it becomes damag-
ed, do not operate your saw until the damage has
been repaired or replaced. Always leave guard in
operating position when using your saw.
When sawing through 'work, lower
blade guard does not cover blade on underside of
work. See Figure 4.
Since blade is exposed on underside of work, keep
hands and fingers away from cutting area. Any part
of your body coming in contact with moving blade
will result in serious injury. Never use saw when
guard is not operating correctly. Guard should be
checked for correct operation before each use.
NOTE: The guard is operating correctly when it
moves freely and readily returns to the down posi-
tion. If you drop your saw, check the lower blade
guard for damage to all depth settings before reuse.
KICKBACK
THE BEST GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK IS TO
AVOID DANGEROUS PRACTICES.
Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and
the saw is driven back towards you.
RELEASE SWITCH IMMEDIATELY IF BLADE BINDS
OR SAW STALLS. See Figure 5. Kickback could
cause you to lose control of your saw. Loss of con-
trol can lead to serious injury.
KICKBACK IS CAUSED BY:
1. Incorrect blade depth setting. See Figure 5.
2. Sawing into knots or nails in work.
3. Twisting blade while making a cut.
4. Making a cut with adull, gummed up, or improper-
ly set blade.
5. Incorrectly supporting work. See Figure 6.
6. Forcing a cut.
7. Cutting warped or wet lumber.
8. Tool misuse or incorrect operating procedures.
TO LESSEN THE CHANCE OF KICKBACK:
1. Always keep the correct blade depth setting
the correct blade depth setting for all cuts has one
whole tooth projected below the material to be
cut. (For carbide-tipped blades, only one-half of a
tooth). See Figure 4.
2. Inspect the work for knots or nails before begin-
ning a cut. Never saw into a knot or nail.

.
.
Make straight cuts. Always use a straight edge
guide when rip cutting. This helps prevent
twisting the blade in the cut.
Always use clean, sharp, and properly .set blades.
Never make cuts with dull blades.
.To avoid pinching the blade, support the work
properly before beginning a cut. The right and
wrong ways to support large pieces of work are
shown in figure 6.
6. When making a cut use steady, even pressure.
Never force cuts.
7. Do not cut warped or wet lumber.
8. Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and
keep your body in a balanced position so as to
resist the forces of kickback should it occur.
WHEN USING YOUR SAW ALWAYS STAY ALERT
AND EXERCISE CONTROL. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR
SAW FROM WORKPIECE WHILE THE BLADE IS
MOVING.
DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct
blade depth setting for all cuts has one whole tooth
projecting below the material to be cut. (For carbide-
tipped blades, only one-half of a tooth). More blade
depth will increase the chance of kickback and
cause the cut to be rough.
TO ADJUST BLADE DEPTH
1. UNPLUG YOUR SAW.
2. Loosen wing nut. See Figure 7.
3. Hold base flat against the work and raise or lower
saw until the required depth is reached.
4. Tighten wing nut securely.

OPERATION
STARTING A CUT (Cont'd)
TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL:
1. Always support your work near the cut.
2. Support your work so the cut will be on your right.
3. Clamp your work so it will not move during the
cut.
Place your work with its good side down. NOTE: The
good side is the side on which appearance is impor-
tant.
Before beginning a cut, draw a guide line along the
desired line of cut. Then place front edge of base on
that part of your work that is solidly supported. See
Figure 10.
NEVER PLACE YOUR SAW ON THAT PART OF THE
WORK THAT WILL FALL OFF WHEN THE CUT IS
MADE. See Figure 11.
Keep the cord away from cutting area. ALWAYS
place the cord to prevent it from hanging up on the
work while making a cut.
_lf the cord hangs up on the work during
a cut, release the switch trigger immediately. Unplug
your saw and reposition the cord to prevent it from
hanging up again.
_Using your saw with a damaged cord
could result in serious injury or death. If the cord has
been damaged, have it replaced before using your
saw again.
Hold your saw firmly with both hands. See Figure 10.
Push the lock-off button down and squeeze the
switch trigger. NOTE: The lock-off button is located
on top of the handle. ALWAYS LET THE BLADE
REACH FULL SPEED, THEN GUIDE YOUR SAW IN-
TO THE WORK.
When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Forc-
ing causes rough cuts, could shorten the life of your
saw and could cause "kickback."

REMEMBER:
When sawing through work, the lower blade guard
does not cover the blade, exposing it on the under-
side of work. Keep your hands and fingers away from
cutting area. Any part of your body coming in con-
tact with the moving blade will result in serious
injury.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and
allow the blade to come to a complete stop. DO NOT
REMOVE YOUR SAW FROM WORKPIECE WHILE
THE BLADE IS MOVING.
_When lifting your saw from the work
the blade is exposed on the underside of your saw
until the lower blade guard closes, Make sure lower
blade guard is (}tosed before setting your saw down
on work surface.
Page 9
OPERATION
TO CROSS CUT OR RIP CUT
When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of
cut with the outer edge of the notch in the saw base
as shown in figure 12. Since the thickness of blades
vary, always make a trial cut in scrap material along a
guideline to determine how much, if any, the
guideline must be offset to produce an accurate cut.
NOTE: The distance from the line of cut to the
guideline is the amount you should offset the
guideline.
RIP GUIDE
Use a rip guide when making rip cuts up to five
inches wide. It helps prevent the blade from twisting
in a cut. The blade twisting in a cut causes kickback.
If needed, Rip Guide Cat. No. 9 27679 is available at
your Sears Catalog Order or Retail Store.
TO ASSEMBLE RIP GUIDE
1. UNPLUG YOUR SAW.
2. Place rip guide through holes in saw base as
shown in figure 13.
3. Adjust rip guide to the length needed for the cut.
4. Tighten screw securely.
When using a rip guide, hold the face of the rip guide
firmly against the edge of work. This makes for a true
cut without pinching the blade. The guiding edge of
work must be straight for your cut to be straight. Use
caution to prevent the blade from binding in the cut.
TO POCKET CUT
With the bevel setting adjusted to zero, swing the
lower blade guard up using the lower blade guard
handle.
While holding lower blade guard by the handle, firm-
ly rest the front of the base flat against the
workpiece with the rear of the base raised so the
blade does not touch the work. See Figure 14. Push
the lock-off button down and squeeze the switch
trigger. ALWAYS LET THE BLADE REACH FULL
SPEED THEN SLOWLY LOWER BLADE INTO THE
WORK UNTIL BASE IS FLAT AGAINST WORK.

TO POCKET CUT (Cont'd.)
After you complete your cut release the trigger and
allow the blade to come to a complete stop. DO NOT
REMOVE YOUR SAW FROM WORKPIECE WHILE
THE BLADE IS MOVING.
Corners may then be cleaned out with a hand saw or
sabre saw.
TO BEVEL CUT
The angle of cut of your saw may be adjusted to any
desired setting between zero and 45 degrees. There
is a notch in the saw base to help you line up the
blade with the line of cut. See Figure 15. Align your
line of cut with the inner edge of the notch in the saw
base when making full 45 degree bevel cuts. Since
the thickness of blades vary and different angles re-
quire different settings, always make a trial cut in
scrap material along a guideline to determine how
much you should offset the guideline on the board to
be cut.
When making a bevel cut hold your saw firmly with
both hands as shown in Figure 16. Rest the front
edge of the base on the work. Push in the lock-off
button and squeeze the switch trigger. ALWAYS LET
THE BLADE REACH FULL SPEED, THEN GUIDE
YOUR SAW INTO THE WORK.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and
allow the blade to come to a complete stop. DO NOT
REMOVE YOUR SAW FROM WORKPIECE WHILE
THE BLADE IS MOVING.
TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING
1. UNPLUG YOUR SAW.
2. Loosen wing nut. See Figure 15.
3. Raise motor housing end of saw until you reach

GENERAL
Only the parts shown on parts list, page 15, are in-
tended to be repaired or replaced by the customer.
All other parts represent an important part of the
double insulation system and should be serviced on-
ly by a qualified s_rvice technician.
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their
use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust,
etc.
When electric tools are used on fiberglass boat
sports cars, etc., it has been found that they are sut
ject to accelerated wear and possible prematut
failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings a_
highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutato
etc. Consequently it is not recommended that th
tool be used for extended work on any fibergla_
material. During any use on fiberglass it is extremel
important that the tool is cleaned frequently by blov
ing with an air jet. ALWAYS WEAR SAFET
GLASSES, DUST MASK, OR EYESHIELDS BEFOR
BEGINNING POWER TOOL OPERATION OR BLOV
ING DUST.
