How to use a circular saw? Tool Rules – Setafi

With the help of an electric saw, you can perform various actions, including trimming and trimming boards, cutting sheet materials. The tool is powerful enough to work not only with timber or wooden boards, but also with plastic and organic glass parts. Instructions on how to use a circular saw and how to properly set up the device are described in the article.

What actions are performed with a saw

If you describe what you can do with a circular saw, you get a rather large list. This is the trimming of workpieces (including those with which it is impossible to work with a pendulum saw), their trimming for floor installation, trimming of various parts, including in the direction under angle.

The tool also allows you to perform other operations:

• cuts of blanks along at different angles;
• sampling of a quarter in timber elements, boards;
• cutting the sheet (for this, a guide is used);

• cutting organic glass, plastic parts;
• the use of the saw as a stationary tool (for this it is pre-mounted to the table).

Step by step instructions for setting up

To understand how to use a circular saw, you need to set up the tool, and then get to work. The algorithm of actions is as follows:

1. The device must be placed on the front side.
2. Lock the spindle by pressing the button.
3. Release clamping screw and outer flange.
4. Rotate the cover clockwise and install the disc.
5. Replace flange and clamping screw.
6. Tighten securely with a wrench.

How to use the tool

After that, you need to figure out how to work with a circular saw. First of all, you should make sure that there is nothing under the part, it must lie on a flat surface. The main sequence of actions is as follows:

1. Mark with a pencil the straight line along which the cutting disc will go.
2. Set the depth at which the cut will be made. The edges of the disc should only protrude slightly below the edge of the part. For example, its thickness is 30 mm, then the depth should not exceed 40 mm.
3. Please note that the front edge of the cutting disc must be exactly aligned with the mark.
4. Start cutting, looking at the guide on the right strictly straight (not at an angle, so as not to distort the perception).
5. To understand how to cut correctly with an electric saw, you need to constantly monitor the guide. In this case, the base should be held flat on the workpiece.
6. The tool is pushed with sufficient force. This is necessary so that the move is confident, but at the same time without unnecessary pressure.
7. At the end of the cut, you need to make sure that the casing has returned to its original position (for safety reasons).

Understanding how to use a hand-held circular saw is easy. In this case, the tool must be properly prepared for work. When making a cut, apply sufficient force so that the disc moves in a straight line.
