General Safety

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents
b) 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
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock

WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is ALWAYS supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30mA or less.

3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards

4) Power tool use & care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation

5) Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Circular Saw Safety

Cutting procedures

a) ⚠️ DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the 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.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.
c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimise body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
e) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
f) When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
g) Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
h) 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.

Further Safety Instructions For All Saws

Kickback causes and related warnings

• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned 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 kerf and jump back toward the operator.

Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

a) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator if proper precautions are taken.
b) 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.
c) When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw 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.
d) Support large panels to minimise 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.

e) Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

Lower guard function

a) Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the 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.
b) Check the operation 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 build-up of debris.
c) Lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts" and "compound cuts". Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as soon as blade enters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically.
d) 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.

Riving knife function

a) Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife. For the riving knife to function, the body of the blade must be thinner than the riving knife and the cutting width of the blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.
b) Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can make the riving knife ineffective in preventing kickback.
c) Always use the riving knife except when plunge cutting. Riving knife must be replaced after plunge cutting. Riving knife causes interference during plunge cutting and can create kickback.
d) For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective in preventing kickback during short cuts.
e) Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent. Even a light interference can slow the closing rate of a guard.

Additional circular saw safety

WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

a) Do not allow anyone under the age of 18 years to operate this saw
b) When operating the saw, use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield, ear protection, dust mask and protective clothing including safety gloves
c) Hand-held power tools may produce vibration. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves may help to maintain blood circulation in the fingers. Hand-held tools should not be used for long periods without a break
d) Whenever possible, use a vacuum dust extraction system to control dust/waste

e) Do not attempt to cut material thicker than detailed in the Specifications section of this manual
f) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece i.e. less than a full tooth of the blade should be visible below the workpiece
g) Ensure work is correctly supported. Large panels may sag under their own weight and bind the saw blade. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, close to the line of cut and near the edge of the panel
h) Ensure all supports and power cables are completely clear of the cutting path
i) Always secure the workpiece to a stable platform, ensuring body exposure is minimised, avoiding blade binding, or loss of control
j) Always stand at an angle to the tool when operating
k) Be aware that the blade will project from the underside of the workpiece
I) Do not reach beneath the workpiece where the guard cannot protect you from the blade
m) Note the direction of rotation of the motor and the blade
n) Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects prior to starting work
o) Do not apply any sideways or twisting force to the blade whilst cutting
p) If a cut does not extend to the edge of the workpiece, or if the blade binds in the cut, allow the blade to come to a complete stop and lift the saw out of the workpiece
q) Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first disconnecting the machine from power
r) Do not move the saw backwards at any time whilst cutting
s) Beware of projected waste. In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is the user's responsibility to ensure other people in the work area are protected from the possibility of projected waste
t) If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete the process and switch off before diverting your attention
u) Check the lower guard for proper closure before each use. Do not operate the saw if the lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If the saw is accidentally dropped, the 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
v) Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before resting the saw on a surface after use. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to move backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after the trigger switch is released
w) Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings have not become loose, and tighten where necessary
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any use other than those mentioned in this manual will be considered a case of misuse. The user, and not the manufacturer, shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any modifications made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such modifications. Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors.

Laser Safety

The laser used in this device is a Class 2 laser with maximum power of ≤ 1mW and a wavelength of 650Nm.

These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause flash blindness.

WARNING: Avoid direct eye contact.

A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam, please observe all safety rules as follows:

• The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
• Do not switch on the laser light until the tool is ready to cut
• Never aim the beam at any person, and particularly not into the eyes of any person or animal, or any object other than the workpiece
• Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough-coated surfaces are acceptable. Reflective sheet steel or similar is not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator
• Do not change the laser light assembly. Repairs must only be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorised agent. DO NOT exchange with a different type of laser

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

3. Follow an edge by keeping the vertical foot of the guide fence pressed against the vertical edge, to be followed as the cut is made

Laser

WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser beam. Never aim the beam at any person or object other than the workpiece.

• Ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces - wood or rough-coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator

• Only switch the laser beam on when the tool is on the workpiece

• Rest the front edge of the saw Base Plate (11) on the workpiece. Ensure the blade is not touching the workpiece

• Switch on the Laser On/Off Switch (1)

Note: If the laser does not operate the batteries may need replacing.

1. Line up the laser beam with your pencil line
2. Commence the cut
3. Switch off the laser beam

Riving knife

• This power tool has a fitted Riving Knife (15) which is a small blade behind the main Blade (18). This is an important safety device which helps to prevent kickback in use
• The thickness of the Riving Knife (A) should be between the kerf (B) and the blade body (C), see Fig. I
• The tool is supplied configured with the correct blade for the Riving Knife. Ensure replacement blades have a blade thickness less than the Riving Knife, but with a kerf (teeth thickness) that exceeds it for correct optimal operation
• In some instances the Riving Knife may need to be removed, re-flattened or replaced. Access the Riving Knife bolts (Image F) by loosening the Depth Locking Knob (26) and setting to the maximum depth position as shown on the Depth Scale (22)
• Replace immediately if it becomes damaged or cannot be made flat
• Position it so it is centralised behind the saw blade. The riving blade bolts may require additional washers to centralise the riving knife when using different thickness saw blades
• Removing the riving knife for plunge/pocket cuts needs special care and attention. Take time to prepare and make sure all safety precautions are followed. Do not attempt to make plunge/pocket cuts with the riving knife fitted. If the riving knife is not easily removed and refitted the saw is not suitable for plunge/pocket cuts

WARNING: Always re-fit the riving knife it is an essential safety feature for normal use.

Accessories

A range of accessories are available for this power tool from your Silverline dealer including saw blades. Spare parts are available from your Triton dealer or www.toolsparesonline.com.

Maintenance

WARNING: Always disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.

Laser adjustment

Note: The laser is pre-configured at the factory and in normal use does not need adjustment.

If the laser does need adjustment, the assembly may be lightly glued into the correct position. Make an adjustment by removing the two screws of the assembly (Image D) and carefully separating any existing glue with a precision knife to ensure the cables are not damaged. Refit the two screws so they only just maintain the laser in its set position, and make fine adjustments to its position. Once set correctly tighten the screws and carry out a test cut to ensure this position is correct. Due to the high vibration of the tool a small amount of glue can be applied to maintain this set position.

General inspection

• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear. Repairs should be carried out by an authorised Silverline service centre. This advice also applies to extension cords used with this tool
