Symbols; Functional Description - Kawasaki 691249 Manuel D'utilisation

When restarting a saw in the work piece, center the saw blade in the kerf and
check that teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it
may walk up or KICKBACK from the work piece as the saw is restarted.
Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade pinching and KICKBACK. Large
panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel
on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
Do not use dull or damaged blade. Unsharpened or improperly set blades pro-
duce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and KICKBACK.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before mak-
ing cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it will cause binding and KICKBACK.
Use extra caution when making a "Pocket Cut" into existing walls or other
blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause KICKBACK.
IMPORTANT: Some of the following symbols may be used on your tool. Please
