source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5. SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS
DANGER: Keep hands away from
a)
cutting area and the blade. Keep
your second hand on auxiliary handle, or
motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw,
they cannot be cut by the blade.
Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
b)
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.
Never hold piece being cut in your hands
d)
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.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
e)
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
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
When ripping always use a rip fence or
f)
straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy
of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
Always use blades with correct size and
g)
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.
Never use damaged or incorrect blade
h)
washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt
were specially designed for your saw, for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
SAWS
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.
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on
a)
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
