Return to article: How to Use a Circular Saw
on 9/22/2008 I respectfuly disagree with these two other comments. I'am a professional handy man and i kniow what im talking about. If anyone has any other questions about using a circular saw please do not go to anyone else but me! Everyone else is completly wrong and I dont need to hear what they have to say.
on 1/30/2006 Always hold the circular saw with two hands. If you try to hold the wood with one hand and the saw with the other, there is a possibility that the saw will slip and cut the hand holding the wood or kick back and cut something else.
on 11/22/2005 When cutting large sheets of plywood, keep the cord across the board on the side AWAY from the blade to prevent "trapping" between the pieces.
on 11/22/2005 Always ensure the blade is installed in the proper direction. Portable circular saws rotate in a counter-clockwise direction and blades are marked with an arrow to line up with the counter-clockwise direction.
