Blades

WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
use eye protection. Carbide is a hard but brittle
material. Foreign objects in the work piece such as
wire or nails can cause tips to crack or break. Only
operate saw when proper saw blade guard is in place.
Mount blade securely in proper rotation before using,
and always use a clean, sharp blade.

WARNING: Do not cut metal, masonry, glass,
masonry-type planking, cement board, tile or plastic
with this saw.
Do not use abrasive wheels or blades. A dull blade will
cause slow, inefficient cutting resulting in overload to the
saw motor, excessive splintering and could increase the
possibility of kickback. Please refer to the following table
to determine the correct size replacement blade for your
model saw.

e
Kickback
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 more likely to occur when any of the following
conditions exist.
1. IMPROPER WORKPIECE SUPPORT
a. Sagging or improper lifting of the cut off piece can
cause pinching of the blade and lead to kickback
(Fig. N).
b. Cutting through material supported at the outer ends
only can cause kickback. As the material weakens it
sags, closing down the kerf and pinching the blade.
c. Cutting off a cantilevered or overhanging piece of
material from the bottom up in a vertical direction
can cause kickback. The falling cut off piece can
pinch the blade.
d. Cutting off long narrow strips (as in ripping) can
cause kickback. The cut off strip can sag or twist
closing the kerf and pinching the blade.

e. Snagging the lower guard on a surface below the
material being cut momentarily reduces operator
control. The saw can lift partially out of the cut
increasing the chance of blade twist.
2. IMPROPER DEPTH OF CUT SETTING ON SAW
a. To make the most efficient cut, the blade should
protrude only far enough to expose half of a tooth
as shown in Figure D. This allows the foot plate
to support the blade and minimizes twisting and
pinching in the material. See the section titled
Cutting Depth Adjustment.
3. BLADE TWISTING (MISALIGNMENT IN CUT)
a. Pushing harder to cut through a knot, a nail, or a hard
grain area can cause the blade to twist.
b. Trying to turn the saw in the cut (trying to get back
on the marked line) can cause blade twist.
c. Over-reaching or operating the saw with poor
body control (out of balance), can result in twisting
the blade.
d. Changing hand grip or body position while cutting
can result in blade twist.
e. Backing up the saw to clear blade can lead to twist.
4. MATERIALS THAT REQUIRE EXTRA ATTENTION
a. Wet lumber
b. Green lumber (material freshly cut or not kiln dried)
c. Pressure treated lumber (material treated with
preservatives or anti-rot chemicals)
5. USE OF DULL OR DIRTY BLADES
a. Dull blades cause increased loading of the saw. To
compensate, an operator will usually push harder
which further loads the unit and promotes twisting
of the blade in the kerf. Worn blades may also have
insufficient body clearance which increases the
chance of binding and increased loading.
6. LIFTING THE SAW WHEN MAKING BEVEL CUT
a. Bevel cuts require special operator attention to
proper cutting techniques - especially guidance
of the saw. Both blade angle to the foot plate
and greater blade surface in the material increase
the chance for binding and misalignment (twist)
to occur.
7. RESTARTING A CUT WITH THE BLADE TEETH JAMMED
AGAINST THE MATERIAL
a. The saw should be brought up to full operating
speed before starting a cut or restarting a cut after
the unit has been stopped with the blade in the kerf.
Failure to do so can cause stalling and kickback.
Any other conditions which could result in pinching,
binding, twisting, or misalignment of the blade could
cause kickback. Refer to the sections on adjustments and
operation for procedures and techniques that will minimize
the occurrence of kickback.
Workpiece Support (Fig. M–O)

WARNING: It is important to support the work
properly and to hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control which could cause personal injury. Figure M
