properly, they must be serviced before use. 

Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged 
parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.

c)   The lower guard may be retracted manually 

only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” 
and “compound cuts.”

 Raise the lower guard by 

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.

d)   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.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES 
FOR YOUR CUTTING-OFF 
MACHINES

a)  The guard provided with the tool must be 

securely attached to the power tool and 
positioned for maximum safety, so the least 
amount of wheel is exposed towards the 
operator. Position yourself and bystanders 
away from the plane of the rotating wheel. 

The 

guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel 
fragments and accidental contact with wheel.

b)  Use only bonded reinforced or diamond cut-off 

wheels for your power tool. 

Just because an 

accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does 
not assure safe operation.

c)  The rated speed of the accessory must be at 

least equal to the maximum speed marked on 
the power tool. 

Accessories running faster than their 

rated speed can break and fly apart.

d)  Wheels must be used only for recommended 

applications. For example: do not grind with the 
side of cut-off wheel. 

Abrasive cut-off wheels are 

intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to 
these wheels may cause them to shatter.

e)  Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are 

of correct diameter for your selected wheel. 

Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing 
the possibility of wheel breakage.

f)  Do not use worn down reinforced wheels from 

larger power tools. 

Wheels intended for a larger 

power tool are not suitable for the higher speed of a 
smaller tool and may burst.

g)  The outside diameter and the thickness of your 

accessory must be within the capacity rating 
of your power tool.

 Incorrectly sized accessories 

cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.

h)  The arbour size of wheels and flanges must 

properly fit the spindle of the power tool. 

Wheels 

and flanges with arbour holes that do not match the 
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of 
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of 
control.

i)  Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, 

inspect the wheels for chips and cracks. If 
power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for 
damage or install an undamaged wheel. After 
inspecting and installing the wheel, position 
yourself and bystanders away from the plane 
of the rotating wheel and run the power tool 
at maximum no load speed for one minute. 

Damaged wheels will normally break apart during this 
test time.

j)  Wear personal protective equipment. 

Depending on application, use face 
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. 
As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing 
protectors, gloves and shop apron capable 
of stopping small abrasive or workpiece 
fragments. The eye protection must be capable 
of stopping flying debris generated by various 
operations. The dust mask or respirator must 
be capable of filtrating particles generated by 
your operation. 

Prolonged exposure to high intensity 

noise may cause hearing loss.

k)  Keep bystanders a safe distance away from 

work area. Anyone entering the work area must 
wear personal protective equipment. 

Fragments 

of workpiece or of a broken wheel may fly away and 
cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.

l)  Hold the power tool by insulated gripping 

surfaces only, when performing an operation 
where the cutting accessory may contact 
hidden wiring or its own cord. 

Cutting accessory 

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

m)  Position the cord clear of the spinning 

accessory.

 If you lose control, the cord may be cut or 

snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the 
spinning wheel. 

n)  Never lay the power tool down until the 

accessory has come to a complete stop

. The 

spinning wheel may grab the surface and pull the 
power tool out of your control.

o)  Do not run the power tool while carrying it at 

your side. 

Accidental contact with the spinning 

accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the 
accessory into your body.

p)  Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.

 The 

motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and 
excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause 
electrical hazards.

q)  Do not operate the power tool near flammable 

materials. 

Sparks could ignite these materials.

r)  Do not use accessories that require liquid 

coolants. 

Using water or other liquid coolants may 

result in electrocution or shock.

KICKBACK AND RELATED 
WARNINGS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged 
rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging causes rapid
