GMC SYT210 Manuel page 7

• Ensure that work is correctly supported. Large panels may sag
under their own weight and bind the saw blade. Supports must be
placed under the panel on both sides, close to the line of cut and
near the edge of the panel
• Ensure all supports and power cables are completely clear of the
cutting path
• For accuracy of cut, and to avoid blade binding, always use a rip
fence or straight edge guide
• Do not reach beneath the workpiece where the guard cannot
protect you from the blade
• Note the direction of rotation of the motor and the blade
• Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded
objects prior to starting work
• Do not apply any sideways or twisting force to the blade whilst
cutting
• If a cut does not extend to the edge of the workpiece, or if the
blade binds in the cut, allow the blade to come to a complete stop
and lift the saw out of the workpiece
• Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first disconnecting
the machine from power
• Do not move the saw backwards at any time whilst cutting
• Beware of projected waste. In some situations, waste material
may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is the users
responsibility to ensure that other people in the work area are
protected from the possibility of projected waste
• If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete the
process and switch off before diverting your attention
• The blade bolt and washers were specially designed for your
saw. For optimum performance and safety of operation never use
damaged or incorrect bolt/blade washers
• Regularly check the operation of the blade guard. If the guard
does not automatically cover the blade, have the saw repaired
before use
• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings have not
loosened, tighten where necessary
