SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS
DANGER!
a) 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 piece being cut in your hands or across
your leg. 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 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 shock the
operator.
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 eccentrically, 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.
䡬
Never use any abrasive wheels
Burst of abrasive wheel cause serious injury of
operator or persons around the working area.
FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
SAWS
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
– 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 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 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, center 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.
d) Support large panels to minimize 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 cut.
If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may
cause binding and kickback.
g) 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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAWS WITH
INNER PENDULUM GUARD
a) 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 depth
of cut.
b) 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 build-up of debris.
c) Lower guard should 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.
d) 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.
