ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS (FOR USE WITH RIP
CUTS)
Kickback is a hazard in which the workpiece is thrown back
toward the operator. The teeth on the anti-kickback pawls
point away from the workpiece. If the workpiece should
be pulled back toward the operator, the teeth dig into the
workpiece to help prevent or reduce the possibility of kick-
back.
BLADE GUARD
Always keep the blade guard down and over the saw blade
for all cuts.
BLADE WRENCH STORAGE
A blade wrench is packed with the saw. One end of the
wrench is a Phillips screwdriver and the other end is a hex
key. Use the hex key when installing or removing blade and
the phillips when removing or loosening screws. A storage
area for the blade wrench is located under the saw's table.
CARRYING HANDLE
For convenience when carrying or transporting the saw from
one place to another, a carrying handle has been provided
on the side of the saw.
