Personal • • Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accident. • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. • • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. • Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents. • Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations. • Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical Safety • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the charger. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may create a fire. A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery. Use battery only with charger listed. MODEL BATTERY PACK CHARGER 973.112930 Item No. _9-11375 (1310715) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. INSTRUCTIONS Work Area • Safety Tool Use and Care • Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control. • Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Item No. 9-11041 (1425301 ) Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire. Use only with battery pack listed. • Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. • • • • Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. • Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may create a risk of injury when used on another tool. Service • Tool service must be performed by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury. • When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire. • Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. Additional • • Know your power tool. Read operator's manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury. _, Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended for an extension cord 100 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Important • • Rules For Safe Operation Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury. WARNING: Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately. Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury. Your battery tool should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than IO0°F. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury. Rules For Battery Tools Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories. Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury. 4 Additional Specific Safety Rules • DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. Keep your saw blade, KICKBACK See Pages body positioned to either side of the but not in line with the saw blade. could cause the saw to jump backwards. 14 and 15. • Do not reach underneath the work. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the work. • Check the lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate saw if lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut. • Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolts. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation. • Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound, or misalignsd saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator. When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator. If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerr and jump back toward the operator. Kickback is a result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below: Check the operation and condition of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a buildup of debris. • Lower guard should be retracted manually only for special cuts such as "Pocket Cuts" and "Compound Cuts". Raise lower guard by Retracting Handle. As soon as blade enters the material, lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically. • Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released. Maintain a firm grip on the saw and position your body and arm in a way that allows you to resist KICKBACK forces. KICKBACK forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or KICKBACK may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf and check that teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or KICKBACK from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. NEVER hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control. • Hold tool by insulating gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. • When ripping always use a rip fence for a straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding. • Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond vs. round) arbor holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control. Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback: Ill Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade pinching and KICKBACK. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel. • Do not use dull or damaged blade. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerr causing excessive friction, blade binding, and KICKBACK. • Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it will cause binding and KICKBACK. Use extra caution when making a "Pocket Cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause KICKBACK. 5 _, • WARNING: Never use a battery that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped battery immediately. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury. Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug. If damaged, have replaced immediately by a qualified serviceman. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury. • • Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman.

Also, if you are removing battery pack from charger and no LEDs are on, return both battery pack and charger to your nearest Sears Service Center. Do not insert another battery pack into charger. A damaged charger may damage a battery pack. IMPORTANT INFORMATION HOT BATTERY PACK FOR GUARD SYSTEM The lower blade guard attached to your trim saw is there for your protection and safety. It should never be altered for any reason. If it becomes damaged or begins to return slow or sluggish, do not operate your saw until the damage has been repaired or replaced. Always leave guard in operating position when using saw. _i, RECHARGING When using your saw continuously, the batteries in your battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and is hot, this will cause the green LED to come on instead of the red LED. After 30 minutes, reinsert battery pack in charger. If green LED continues to remain on, return battery pack to your nearest Sears Repair Center for checking or replacing. Once the battery pack cools down, it will recharge battery pack in fast charging mode as normal. DANGER: When sawing through workpiece, lower blade guard does not cover blade on the underside of workpiece. Since blade is exposed on underside of workpiece, keep hands and fingers away from cutting area. Any part of your body coming in contact with moving blade will result in serious injury. See Figure 9. LOWERBLADEGUARD IS IN UP POSITION WHENMAKINGA CUT Note: This situation only occurs when extreme continuous use of your saw causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHARGING BA'rI'ERY PACK" for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Sears repair center for electrical check. IMPORTANT INFORMATION COOL BATTERY PACK FOR RECHARGING BLADEEXPOSEDON UNDERSIDEOF WORKPIECE If battery pack is below normal temperature range, the green LED on charger will come on. Allow battery pack to reach normal temperature, then the red LED will come on. Note: Refer to "CHARGING BATTERY PACK" for Fig. 9 Never use saw when guard is not operating correctly. Guard should be checked for correct operation before each use. If you drop your saw, check the lower blade guard and bumper for damage at all depth settings before reuse, Note: The guard is operating correctly when it moves freely and readily returns to the closed position. If for any reason your lower blade guard does not close freely, take it to the nearest Sears Parts and Repair Center for service before using. normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Sears Repair Center for electrical check. 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 increase the danger of kickback. Keep extra blades on hand, so that sharp blades are always available. Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades will slow your saw down. Use gum and pitch remover, hot water, or kerosene to remove these accumulations. Do not use gasoline. 14 KICKBACK TO LESSEN See Figure 10. • BLADESET TOO DEEP THE CHANCE OF KICKBACK: Always keep the correct blade depth setting - the correct blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. below the material to be cut. See Figure 12. One blade tooth below the material to be cut works best for most efficient cutting action. Fig. 10 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. Blade stalling is caused by any action which pinches the blade in the wood. _i, CORRECTBLADEDEPTHSETTING= BLADEEXPOSEDONEBLADETOOTH BELOWTHE MATERIALTO BE CUT DANGER: Release switch immediately if blade binds or saw stalls. Kickback could cause you to lose control of your saw. Loss of control can lead to serious injury. KICKBACK IS CAUSED Fig. 12 • Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before beginning 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. BY: • Incorrect blade depth setting. See Figure 10. • Sawing into knots or nails in workpiece. • Twisting blade while making a cut. • • Making a cut with a dull, gummed up, or improperly set blade. Always use clean, sharp and properly set btades. Never make cuts with dull blades. • • Incorrectly supporting workpiece. See Figure 11. To avoid pinching the blade, support the workpiece properly before beginning a cut. The right and wrong ways to support large pieces of work are shown in figures 11 and 13. Fig. 11 • RIGHT Forcing a cut. • Cutting warped or wet lumber. • Tool misuse or incorrect operating procedures. 15 Fig. 13 • Whenmakinga cutusesteady,evenpressure.

STARTING A CUT Know the right way to use your saw. See Figure 15. 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 should not exceed 1/4 inch below the material to be cut. More blade depth will increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. One blade tooth below the material to be cut works best for most efficient cutting action. TO ADJUST • BLADE DEPTH Remove battery pack from saw. WARNING: Failure to remove battery pack from saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. • Fig, 15 Never use your saw as shown in figure 16. Loosen depth adjustment knob. See Figure 14, TO RAISE SAW ,TO TIGHTEN TO LOOSEN TO LOWERSAW BASE ASSEMBLY DEPTH ADJUSTMENT KNOB Fig. 14 • Hold base flat against the workpiece and raise or lower saw until the required depth is reached. • Tighten depth adjustment knob securely. WRONG Fig. 16 Never place your hand on the workpiece behind your saw while making a cut. ,_ 16 WARNING: To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper control of your saw. Loss of control of your saw could cause an accident resulting in possible serious injury. TO HELP MAINTAIN Hold your saw firmly with both hands. See Figure 18 CONTROL: • Always support your workpiece near the cut. • Support your workpiece so the cut will be on your left. • Clamp your workpiece so it will not move during the cut. Ptace your workpiece with its good side down. Note: The good side is the side on which appearance is important. Before beginning a cut, draw a guideline along the desired line of cut. Then place front edge of base on that part of your workpiece that is solidily supported. See Figure 15. Never place your saw on that part of the workpiece that will fall off when the cut is made. See Figure 17. RIGHT Fig. 18 Depress the lock-off button and squeeze the switch trigger to start your saw. Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide your saw into the workpiece. _, WARNING: The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before it reaches full speed could cause your saw to "kickback" towards you resulting in serious injury. When making a cut use steady, eveR. pressure. Forcing causes rough cuts, could shorten the life of your saw and could cause "kickback." WRONG REMEMBER: When sawing through work, the lower blade guard does not cover the blade, exposing it on the underside of work. Keep your hands and fingers away from cutting area. Any part of your body coming in contact with the moving blade will result in serious injury. Fig. 17 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. _, 17 CAUTION: When lifting your saw from the workpiece, the blade is exposed on the underside of your saw until the lower blade guard Closes. Make sure lower blade guard is closed before setting your saw down on work surface. TO CROSSCUT OR RIP CUT When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of cut with the outer blade guide notch on the saw base as shown in figure 19. TOP VIEW OF SAW GUIDELINE BLADE GUIDENOTCH A width of cut scale has been provided on the base of your saw. When making straight cross cuts or rip cuts, the scale can be used to measure up to four inches to the right side of the blade. It can be used to measure up to one inch to the left side of the blade. RIP GUIDE (EDGE GUIDE) Use the rip guide provided with your saw when making wide rip cuts. Afive inch scale has been provided on the rip guide. When using the width of cut scale on the base in combination with the rip guide, cuts can be made up to 6 in. to the left of the rip guide or 8-7/8 in. to the right of the rip guide. The rip guide helps prevent the blade from twisting in a cut. The blade twisting in a cut can cause kickback.
