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 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 lower guard for proper closing before each
use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not
move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or
tie the lower guard into the open position.
If saw is
accidentally dropped, 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 lower guard 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.
■
Lower guard may be retracted manually only for
special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and “compound
cuts”. Raise lower guard by retracting handle and
as soon as 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 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.
