Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard
f
f
cannot protect you from the blade below the work-
piece.
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work-
f
f
piece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should
be visible below the workpiece.
Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across
f
f
your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It
is important to support the work properly to minimize
body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
f
f
only, when performing an operation where the cut-
ting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed met-
al parts of the power tool "live" and could give the op-
erator an electric shock.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge
f
f
guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces
the chance of blade binding.
Always use blades with correct size and shape (dia-
f
f
mond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do
not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run
eccentrically, causing loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or
f
f
bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially de-
signed for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation.
Kickback causes and related warnings
f
f
• 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 the result of saw misuse and/
or incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precautions
as given below.
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and
f
f
position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position
your body to either side of the blade, but not in line
with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump
backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by
the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut
f
f
for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw
motionless in the material until the blade comes to
a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw
from the work or pull the saw backward while the
blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate
and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of
blade binding.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the
f
f
saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are not
engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it
may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the
saw is restarted.
Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade
f
f
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 blades. Unsharpened or
f
f
improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must
f
f
be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjust-
ment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and
kickback.
Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or
f
f
other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut ob-
jects that can cause kickback.
Lower guard function
Check lower guard for proper closing before each
f
f
use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not
move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie
the lower guard into the open position. If saw is ac-
cidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise
the lower guard with the retracting handle and make
sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or
any other part, in all angles and depths of cut.
Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If
f
f
the guard and the spring are not operating properly,
they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may
operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
The lower guard may be retracted manually only for
f
f
special cuts such as "plunge cuts and angle cuts".
Raise the lower guard by retracting the handle and
as soon as the blade enters the material, release the
lower guard. For all other sawing operations, the
lower guard should operate automatically.
Always observe that the lower guard is covering the
f
f
blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An
unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to
walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be
aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after
switch is released.
