▶
Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and
kickback.
Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and
near the edge of the panel.
▶
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set
blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and
kickback.
▶
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and
secure before making the cut.
If blade adjustment shifts while cutting,
it may cause binding and kickback.
▶
Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind
areas.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
Lower guard function
▶
Check the lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not
operate the saw if the lower guard does not move freely and close
instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position.
If the saw is accidentally dropped, the lower guard may be bent. Raise
the lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely
and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths
of cut.
▶
Check the operation of the guard return spring. If the guard and
the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before
use.
Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
▶
The lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such
as "plunge cuts" and "compound cuts". Raise the lower guard by the
retracting handle and as soon as the blade enters the material, the
lower guard must be released.
For all other sawing, the lower guard
should operate automatically.
▶
Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before
placing the saw down on bench or floor.
An unprotected, coasting
blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its
path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is
released.
