SAFETY
WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re
and/or serious injury.
DANGER
• Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade; keep your second hand on front handle (if both
hands are holding the saw, they can not 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 (it is important to support the work properly
to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control)
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces 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
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 for blade binding)
• Always use blades with correct size and shape of arbor holes (diamond or round) (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 bolts (the blade washers and bolt were specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation)
KICKBACK-CAUSES
• 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
