c)
If you want to restart a saw that is still in the
workpiece, centre the saw blade in the cut
and check to ensure that the teeth are not
caught anywhere in the workpiece.
If the saw
blade catches it can jump out of the workpiece
or cause a kickback when the saw is restarted.
d)
Support large panels or boards to reduce the
risk of the saw blade jamming and causing
a kickback.
Large panels tend to bend under
their own weight. Panels must be supported on
both sides, both the vicinity of the saw cut and
also at the edge.
e)
Do not use blunt or damaged saw blades.
Saw blades with blunt or misaligned teeth may
cause excessive friction as the saw cut is too
narrow, and can cause a sawblade jam and
kickback.
f)
Before sawing, ensure that the fastenings
for the cut depth and cut angle settings are
tightened.
If the settings change while sawing,
the saw blade might jam and cause a kickback.
g)
Be particularly careful when sawing in existing
walls or other obscured areas.
The inserted
saw blade could get caught on hidden objects
and cause a kickback.
Specific safety instructions for this
saw
Function of the lower blade guard:
a)
Before every use, check to ensure that the
blade guard closes properly. Do not use the
saw if the lower blade guard does not move
freely and does not close immediately. Never
jam or fasten the blade guard; this would
leave the saw blade unprotected.
If the saw
accidentally falls to the floor, the blade guard
might bend. Ensure that the blade guard moves
freely and does not touch the saw blade or
other parts at any cutting angles or depths.
b)
Check the condition and function of the spring
for the blade guard. Have the saw serviced
before using it if the blade guard and spring
are not working properly.
Damaged parts,
sticky deposits or accumulations of chippings
can cause the lower blade guard to operate
slowly.
c)
When making a “plunge cut” that is not at
right angles, secure the base plate of the saw
to prevent any lateral movement.
Lateral
movement can cause the saw blade to jam, thus
causing a kickback.
d)
Do not leave the saw on the work bench or
floor if the blade guard is not fully covering
the saw blade.
An unprotected, coasting saw
blade will move the saw in the opposite direc-
tion to the cutting direction saw anything in its
path. Always take into account that the saw
blade takes some time to stop spinning.
Supplementary notes
■
Do not use any grinding discs.
■
Use only saw blades with diameters corre-
sponding to the label on the saw.
■
When sawing wood or other materials that cre-
ate dusts that are hazardous to health, always
connect the appliance to a suitable, certified
suction appliance.
■
Wear a dust mask when sawing wood.
■
Only use recommended saw blades.
■
Always wear ear protectors.
■
Do not allow the teeth of the saw blade to
overheat.
■
When sawing plastic, avoid melting the plastic.
