f) 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are 
less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) 

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., 
in accordance with these instructions, taking into 
account the working conditions and the work to be 
performed.

 Use of the power tool for operations 

different from those intended could result in a 
hazardous situation.

5) SERVICE

a) 

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair 
person using only identical replacement parts.

 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is 
maintained.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CIRCULAR SAWS

DANGER

• 

 

Keep hands away from cutting area and the 

blade; keep your second hand on front handle 

(if 

both hands are holding the saw, they can not be cut by 
the blade)

• 

Do not reach underneath the workpiece 

(the guard 

cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece)

• 

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)

• 

Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across 
your leg 

(it is important to support the work properly to 

minimise body exposure, blade binding, or loss of 
control)

• 

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when 
performing an operation where the cutting tool may 
contact hidden wiring or its own cord 

(contact with a 

“live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the 
tool “live” and shock the operator)

• 

When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge 
guide 

(this improves the accuracy of cut and reduces 

the chance for blade binding)

• 

Always use blades with correct size and shape of 
arbor holes (diamond or round) 

(blades that do not 

match the mounting hardware of the saw will run 
eccentrically, causing loss of control)

• 

Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or 
bolts 

(the blade washers and bolt were specially 

designed for your saw, for optimum performance and 
safety of operation)

KICKBACK - CAUSES

•  Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or 

misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to 
lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator

•  When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf 

closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction 
drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator

•  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 towards operator

KICKBACK - OPERATOR PREVENTION

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect 
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by 
taking proper precautions as given below
• 

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)

• 

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 backwards while the 
blade is in motion or kickback may occur 

(investigate 

and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of 
blade binding; avoid cutting nails or screws)

• 

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

(if saw blade is binding, 

it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the 
saw is restarted)

• 

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 a dull or damaged blade 

(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 making a plunge cut into 
existing walls or other blind areas 

(the protruding 

blade may cut objects that can cause kickback)

WARNING
•  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)
