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
• 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 towards operator
KICKBACK - OPERATOR PREVENTION
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as given below
• Maintain a fi rm 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
