Before using the circular saw

Check the following points:

Is the saw blade missing any teeth or showing •

any cracks, it so must be replaced

immediately.

Make sure the blade is secure.•

Use this circular saw to saw only wood, wood-•

like products.

Do not use circular saw blades which are •

deformed or damaged.

Do not use HSS blades.•

Only use blades meeting the required •

dimensions, as well as data and descriptions;

Do not stop the blade of a circular saw by •

pressing the blade from the side.

Check that the blade guard can freely move •

and fully closes.

Never lock-up the guard in the open position.•

Never put sideward pressure on the blade. •

This may cause the blade to break.

Be careful when cutting wood with knots, nails •

or cracks in it and/or dirt on it, as these

can cause the blade to get stuck.•

Never leave the circular saw unattended.•

Use this circular saw to saw only wood or •

wood-like products.

Using circular saw.

Use clamps or a vice to hold the work.•

Never remove wood chips and saw dust that is •

close to the saw blade with your hands. If

there are small pieces of wood left between

the fixed and the movable parts, the circular

saw will have to be stopped. The plug needs

to be removed from the socket,

before any left piece can be removed.•

Check that the blade is suitable for the spindle •

speed of the circular saw. Do not attempt to

cut before the circular saw has reached full

speed. Make sure the circular saw runs

without load (i.e. is not in contact with the

work) when you switch it on. The circular saw

must have reached its full speed first.

Never cut wood that is thicker than the depth •

of the saw blade.

When cutting in wooden walls or floors, check •

there is no wiring or piping where you intend to

cut.

Switch off the tool and wait until the blade has •

stopped completely before moving the

saw away from the work or putting it down. •

Hearing protection should be worn when

Safety tips for the laser beamer

Never look into the light beam of the laser.•

Never point the light beam of the laser at •

humans or animals.

Do not point the light beam of the laser at •

strongly reflecting material. Hazard from

reflected light.•

Only have repairs made to the laser beamer •

by qualified personnel / professional repair

specialists.•

Do not insert any hard objects into the laser •

optics.

Clean the laser optics with a soft, dry brush.•

Switch off the machine immediately when you

discover:

A defective switch.•

Overheating of the circular saw.•

Smoke or odour caused by scorched •

insulation.

3. MOUNTING ACCESSORIES

Prior to mounting an accessory always

remove the battery.

Setting the sawing angle (bevel)

Fig. B

Loosen the saw angle clamping knob (11).•

Rotate the soleplate (6) in the correct position •

(0º - 50º) and tighten the saw angle clamping

knob. The sawing angle (bevel) can be read

on the protractor (10).

Fitting the rip fence

Fig. C

Loosen the rip fence clamping knob (12).•

Insert the rip fence into the slots provided.•

Set the correct cut width and thighten the rip •

fence clamping knob (12).

Setting the cutting depth

Fig. D

Pull out and loosen the cut depth clamping •

knob by turning it counter clockwise (16).

Caution! Do not turn the cut clamping

knob more than 1 full turn.

Move the soleplate (6) downwards.•

GB

8 Ferm

Pull out and tighten the cut depth clamping •

knob (16) once the correct depth is set. The

cut depth clamping knob needs to be pulled

out in order to function. Make sure it is

securely tightened before using the machine.

Exchanging or cleaning the saw blade

Fig. A + E + F

Press the spindle lock button (14) to prevent •

the spindle from rotating.

Loosen the bolt (3) in the centre of the saw •

blade, using the wrench key (20).

Release the spindle lock button (14).•

Turn the safety guard (2) to the rear and hold it •

there with the aid of the guard knob (1).

Remove the retaining ring (4) and the saw •

blade. Clean the blade or replace it with a new

one. Make sure the arrow on the saw blade,

indicating the direction of rotation,

corresponds with the direction arrow on the

upper guard.

Place the saw blade back on the shaft.•

Release the guard knob the allow the safety •

guard to return over the saw blade.

Press the spindle lock. Refit the retaining ring •

and firmly tighten the bolt.

Connecting and removing the battery

Fig. G

Insert the battery into the base of the •

appliance, as shown on the illustration. Push

the battery until it latches in.

Press the locking button (17) before removing •

the battery, and disengage the battery from

the base of the appliance.

Only use batteries of the following type.

Using any other batteries could cause

serious injury or damage the tool.

CDA1051: FPB-1800L, 18V Lithium-Ion.

CDA1053: FPB-1800N, 18V NiMH.

The following charger can be used to charge these

batteries.

CDA1052: FPL-1800 (Lithium-Ion and NiMH).

CDA1054: FPL-1800N (NiMH only).

4. OPERATION

Wear ear and eye protection.

Switching on and off

This machine is equipped with a safety switch.•

Start the machine by pressing the “lock off” •

button (to disengage the switch) and switch on

the machine.

Release the (On/Off) switch to switch the •

machine off.

Operation

Hold the work using clamps or a vice to have •

both hands free to operate the saw.

Switch on the saw and place the sole plate on •

the workpiece.

Slowly move the saw towards towards the •

previously drawn cutting line and slowly press

the tool forward.

Firmly press the soleplate on the workpiece •

otherwise the circular saw may start to vibrate,

causing the blade to break more easily.

Let the saw do the job. Do not put undue

pressure on the circular saw. If the saw

blade jams in the workpiece, the

machine will automatically switch off.

Laser beamer

Laser beamer in use

The leading beam of the laser beamer makes

sawing in straight lines much easier:

a) along a drawn line, or

b) by aligning it to a fixed point marked on the

workpiece. Press the laser on/off button (8) to

switch the laser on or off.

Adjusting the laser beam

Transport handling and heavy use can affect •

the precision of the laser beam.

The laser beam itself can be easily adjusted.•

Hold the blade of the circular saw against a •

straightedge or perfectly straight plank.

Switch the laser on. •

Check whether the laser beam runs parallel •

along the edge of the straightedge or plank.

GB

Ferm

If the laser beam is out of alignment, proceed •

as follows:

Hold the blade of the circular saw against •

a straightedge or perfectly straight plank.

Correct the laser such that it runs straight •

along the edge using the screws on the

side of the laser.

The battery icon (24) indicates the amount of •

charge remaining in the battery. Each charge

bar displayed indicates approximately 10%

charge remaining in the battery. A total of 10

charge bars indicates a fully charged battery.

5. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
