Further Safety Instructions For All Saws; Kickback Causes And Related Warnings - Worx WX529 Manual Del Usuario

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration
syndrome if its use is not adequately
managed.
WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of
exposure level in the actual conditions of use
should also take account of all parts of the operating
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle but not actually doing
the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure
level over the total working period.
Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these
instructions and keep well lubricated (where
appropriate)
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti
vibration accessories.
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10
Plan your work schedule to spread any high
vibration tool use across a number of days.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR
ALL SAWS
a) DANGER: Keep hands away from
cutting area and the blade. If both hands
are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the
blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below
the workpiece.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
f) When ripping always use a rip fence or
straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy
of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
g) 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.
h) 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.

KICKBACK CAUSES AND RELATED WARNINGS

- 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.
a) Maintain a firm grip 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.
b) 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.
c) When restarting a saw in the workpiece,
center the saw blade in the kerf and check
