Blade depth lever and bevel adjustment
nut must be tight and secure before
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while
cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
Use extra caution when making "plunge
cuts" into existing wall or other blind
areas. The protruding blade may cut
objects that can cause kickback.
Do not use AC-only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC-
rated tool are likely to fail and create a
hazard to the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool, be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched or safety guard
return springs may be improperly
mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as
gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc.
may damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must
only be serviced by a Skil Factory Service
Center or Authorized Skil Service Station.
Never place your hand behind the saw
blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump
backwards over your hand.
Do not use the saw with an excessive
depth of cut setting. Too much blade
exposure increases the likelihood of the
blade twisting in the kerf and increases the
surface area of the blade available for
pinching that leads to kickback.
