Instruction & User Manual

 

m

Maintain a firm grip with both 
hands on 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.

 

m

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 or kickback may occur. 

Investigate and take corrective actions to 
eliminate the cause of blade binding.

 

m

When restarting a saw in the 
workpiece, centre the saw blade 
in the kerf so that the saw teeth 
are not engaged into the material. 

If a saw blade binds, it may walk up or 
kickback from the workpiece as the saw is 
restarted.

 

m

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.

 

m

Do not use dull or damaged blades. 

Unsharpened or improperly set blades 
produce narrow kerf causing excessive 
friction, blade binding and kickback.

 

m

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.

 

m

Use extra caution when sawing into 
existing walls or other blind areas.

 

The protruding blade may cut objects that 
can cause kickback.
