c) Lower guard should 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.
NOTE: Although the above information references wood, this saw
is only to be used to cut metal. Kickback can occur when cutting
metal.
WARNING: ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS wear certified safety
equipment:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3).
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection.
• NIOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to cut stainless steel, rebar, hardened
or heat-treated steel, cast iron, masonry or unknown materials.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard.
Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright on the battery
pack but may be easily knocked over.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
(CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or
lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use.
Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product
may contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING: ALWAYS use eye protection. All users and
bystanders must wear eye protection that conforms to ANSI
Z87.1.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust,
which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other
injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face
and body.
