The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise
when the arm is brought down; it will lower over the
blade when the arm is raised. The guard can be raised
by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for
inspection of the saw. Never raise the blade guard
manually unless the machine is switched off.
Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean and
free of chips.
Do not work with material containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered to be carcinogenic.
Never make the warning signs on the power tool
unrecognisable.
Never stand on the power tool. Serious injuries could
occur when the power tool tips over or when coming in
contact with the saw blade.
Do not take hold of the saw blade after working before it
has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while
working.
Advance the saw blade against the workpiece only
when it is switched on. Otherwise, the danger of kick-
back exists when the saw blade catches in the
workpiece.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those
recommended in this instruction manual may present a
risk of personal injury and/or damage to property.
Never place hands near cutting area. Keep hands
outside the “No Hands Zone” which includes entire table
and is labelled by “No Hands” symbols.
To avoid injury from materials being thrown, unplug the
saw to avoid accidental starting, and then remove small
materials.
Before use and after any maintenance the blade guard
must be checked to ensure proper function. This test
must be performed with the saw switched off and
unplugged. The arm must be raised and lowered to
ensure the guard covers the blade and the blade does
not contact the guard. If the guard fails to operate
correctly, have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair agent. Call Black & Decker customer services for
you nearest service agent.
