momentarily reduce operator control. The saw can lift partially out of the cut
increasing the chance of blade twist. Ensure there is sufficient clearance under
the workpiece.
• When necessary to raise lower guard manually, use the retracting lever.
• KEEP THE BLADES CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp blades minimize stalling and
kickback. The use of dull and/or dirty blades can increase the saw loading
causing the operator to push harder which promotes twisting.
DANGER:
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep hands
away from blades. Never place hands in front of or behind
the path of the blade while 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. 1) in
this manual to minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback. 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. 3) 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 (Figs. 4 & 5). 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.
• THE DUST EJECTION NOZZLE MUST BE IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES. Take your saw
to an authorized Black & Decker Service Facility if the nozzle becomes damaged
or lost.
• VIEWING WINDOW MUST BE IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES and it must stay closed
against the upper guard of the saw at all times when operating the saw.

WARNING:
Do not operate your saw if window becomes damaged or
fails to stay in place as noted above. Bring your saw to
your closest Black & Decker Service Center or authorized
service facility.
• TURN OFF AND UNPLUG THE SAW before attempting to clean the blade
viewing window.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
• WHAT IS KICKBACK? KICKBACK is the sudden movement of the saw, during a
cut, back toward the operator which may cause serious personal injuries.
DANGER:
RELEASE SWITCH IMMEDIATELY IF BLADE BINDS OR SAW
STALLS.
• KICKBACK CAN BE CAUSED BY the saw blade becoming pinched, twisted or
bound while cutting, or the saw stalls. When 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 cut and move suddenly
back toward the operator.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACK
• Keep a firm grip on saw with both hands at all times.
• Stay alert – exercise control.
• Support long overhanging materials. As the material is cut and weakens, it will
sag, causing a pinched blade.
• Support large panels as shown (Fig. 1). Material supported only at the ends (Fig.
2) will lead to blade pinching.
• Avoid sawing overhead. Material can sag and will pinch blade.
• Keep blades sharp and clean.
• Use fence or straight edge guide when ripping. Be careful as the cut off strip can
sag or twist, closing the cut and pinching the blade, leading to KICKBACK.
• Don't force tool. Wood variables such as knots, hardness, toughness, wetness,
pressure treated and freshly cut green lumber can heavily load the saw which
can lead to stalling. Push the saw slower when this occurs.
• Don't remove saw from work during a cut while the blade is moving.
• Allow saw to reach full speed before blade contacts material to be cut. Starting
the saw with the blade against the work or pushed forward into cut can lead to
stalling or sudden backward movement of saw.
• Never attempt to lift the saw when making a bevel cut. This will lead to blade
binding and stalling.
