cutting. Do not reach underneath work while blade is
rotating. Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade
is moving.
 Support large panels. Large panels must be supported
as shown (Fig. A) in this manual to minimize the risk of
blade pinching and kickback. Material supported only at
the ends (Fig. B) will lead to blade pinching. When cutting
operation requires the resting of the saw on the workpiece,
the saw shall be rested on the larger portion and the
smaller piece cut off.
 Use only correct blades and blade assembly
components when mounting blades. Do not use
blades with incorrect size holes. Never use defective or
incorrect blade washers or bolts. Follow blade assembly
procedures.
 Adjustments. Before cutting be sure depth and bevel
adjustments are tight.
 Support and secure the work properly. Insure that the
material to be cut is clamped (Fig. C) and solidly
supported and balanced on a strong, stable and level
work surface. Support the work so that the wide portion
of the saw shoe is on the portion of the material that
doesn't fall after the cut is made. Never hold cut off piece
by hand (Fig. D). KICKBACK from blade pinch can
result. Keep both hands on saw at all times.
 Stay alert and exercise control. Keep body positioned
to one side of blade. Always maintain a firm grip and
control of saw with both hands. Do not change hand grip
or body position while saw is running. Take precaution to
avoid injury from cut off pieces and other falling material
during operation.
Danger! Release switch immediately if blade binds
or saw stalls.
