check for any damage to the blade or flanges. A cracked or
damaged blade or flange can come apart and pieces can
be thrown at high speeds, causing serious injury.
•
DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray
or aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic guard. The
polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to
attack by certain chemicals.
•
ALWAYS USE THE KERF PLATE AND REPLACE THIS
PLATE WHEN DAMAGED. Small chip accumulation
under the saw may interfere with the saw blade or may
cause instability of workpiece when cutting.
•
USE ONLY BLADE FLANGES specified for this tool to
prevent damage to the machine and/or serious injury.
•
CLEAN THE MOTOR AIR SLOTS of chips and sawdust.
Clogged motor air slots can cause the machine to
overheat, damaging the machine and possibly causing a
short which could cause serious injury.
•
KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from the
blade to prevent severe cuts. Clamp all workpieces that
would cause your hand to be within 6" (152 mm) of the
saw blade.
•
NEVER LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE "ON" position. Severe
personal injury may result.
•
TURN OFF THE MACHINE and allow the blade to come
to a complete stop before raising the arm and prior to
cleaning the blade area, removing debris in the path of the
blade, before servicing or adjusting tool. A moving blade
can cause serious injury.
PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE WORKPIECES.
•
Loss of control of the workpiece can cause injury.
NEVER cross arms in front of blade while using tool.
•
Always make a dry run (unpowered) before making a
finish cut so that you can check the path of the blade or
severe personal injury may result.
•
NEVER cut workpieces shorter than 1" (30 mm). (Fig. B)
