TOOL SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS

 

m

Wear ear protectors.

 Exposure to noise 

can cause hearing loss.

 

m

Wear eye protection.

 Wear goggles 

to prevent eyes from exposure to flying 
particles.

 

m

Wear dust mask.

 Take protective 

measures against inhalation of dust. Some 
materials can contain toxic materials. Also 
work with dust/ chip extraction when 
connectable.

Additional Safety Rules For Saw 
Tools

 

m

Keep hands away from 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.

 

m

Do not reach underneath the 
workpiece. 

The guard cannot protect you 

from the blade below the workpiece.

 

m

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.

 

m

Never hold the workpiece in your 
hands or across your leg while 
cutting. Secure the workpiece to a 
stable platform.

 It is important to support 

the work properly to minimise body 
exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

 

m

Hold the power tool by insulated 
gripping surfaces, when performing 
an operation where the cutting tool 
may contact hidden wiring. 

Contact 

with a “live” wire will also make exposed 
metal parts of the power tool “live” and 
could give the operator an electric shock.

 

m

When ripping, always use a rip fence 
or straight edge guide.

 This improves 

the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance 
of blade binding.

 

m

Never use damaged or incorrect 
blade washers or bolt. 

The blade 

washers and bolt were specially designed 
for your saw, for optimum performance and 
safety of operation.

Kickback Causes And Related 
Warnings

 

m

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, 
jammed or misaligned saw blade, causing 
an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the 
workpiece toward the operator

 

m

When the blade is pinched or jammed 
tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade 
stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit 
rapidly back toward the operator

 

m

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.
