different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
h)
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5 Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair center using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Cutting procedures
a) DANGER: 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.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
c) 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.
d) 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 minimize body exposure,
blade binding, or loss of control.
e) Hold the power 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 power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
f) When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and
reduces the chance of blade binding.
g)
Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that
do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run
off-centre, causing loss of control.
h) 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.
Further safety instructions
Kickback causes and related warnings
– 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;
– 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;
– 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.
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e)
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened
or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f) 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.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may
cut objects that can cause kickback.
