debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water
immediately.
•
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location.
Obey this instruction will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
•
For best results, your battery tool should be charged
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
but less than 100°F. To reduce the risk of serious injury,
do not store outside or in vehicles.
•
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your sink, wash immediately with soap and water. If
liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for
at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical
attention. Obey this instruction will reduce the risk of
serious injury.
•
Keep these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If
you borrow someone this tool, loan them these
instructions also to prevent incorrect use of the machine
and possible injury.

CUTTING PROCEDURES
Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep
your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be
cut by the blade.
•
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard
cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.
•
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. 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
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 power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will
also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and shock the operator.
•
When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge
guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the
chance of blade binding.
•
Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond 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
bolt.The blade washers and bolt were specially designed
for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of
operation.

CAUSES AND OPERATOR
PREVENTION OF KICKBACK:
•
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 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
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, center
the 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
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
improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
•
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking knobs
must be tight and secure before making cut.If
blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause
binding and kickback.
•
Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls
or other blind areas.The protruding blade may cut
objects that can cause kickback.

LOWER GUARD SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
•
Check lower guard for proper closing before each use.
Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not move
freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower
