Before you begin sawing, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the design features of the specific model you’re using, and be sure to wear gloves and eye protection to keep yourself safe while you work.

• Measure and mark your work material where you’ll be making your cuts.

  Measure twice, Cut once. Circular saws are most often used to make short, straight cuts. For complex angled or curved cuts, you’ll get the best results using a miter saw or jigsaw.

• Place your material on a saw table or between two sawhorses.

  Make sure the material you’re cutting is properly supported and free of obstructions from underneath.

• Use the central lever to set the blade to the desired cutting depth.

  Setting the saw blade to the correct depth will ensure cleaner cuts and reduce friction, which can wear down the teeth and leave imperfections in the surface of your material.

• Adjust the pivoting scale to angle the blade for beveled cuts.

  Make sure the locking knob is secure before you activate the saw. Otherwise, the scale may move when the blade makes contact with your material.

• Wear gloves and eye protection to keep yourself safe while you work.[8]X

  At the very least, you’ll want to equip yourself with a pair of thick, rugged work gloves and some safety glasses or goggles to keep more vulnerable areas covered.
