8 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged
before adjusting or checking function on the tool.
8.1
Blade guard (Fig. 4, 5 & 6)
Caution:
Make sure that the handle cannot be lowered without pushing the lever nearby the handle
to the left. (fig 2 - 20)
Make sure that the lower blade guards A dose not open unless the lever near the handle is
pushed at the topmost position of the handle.
Make sure that the lower blade guard C is installed before using in Mitre saw mode.
When lowering the handle while pushing the lever to the left, the lower blade guard A rises
automatically. The lower blade guard B rises as it contacts a workpiece. The lower blade
guards are spring loaded so it returns to its original position when the cut is completed and the
handle is raised. The top blade guard falls flat on the table surface after workpiece has passed
under it. NEVER DEFEAT OR REMOVE THE LOWER BLADE GUARDS, THE SPRING
WHICH ATTACHES TO THE LOWER BLADE GUARD, OR THE TOP BLADE GUARD except
for the note below.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain each blade guard in good condition.
Any irregular operation of the guards should be corrected immediately. Check to assure spring
loaded return action of the lower blade guards. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF THE LOWER
BLADE GUARD, SPRING OR THE TOP BLADE GUARD ARE DAMAGED, FAULTY OR
REMOVED except for the note below. DOING SO IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND CAN
CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
NOTE:
There are the following exceptions for removal of guards. Only when using in the table saw
mode, the lower blade guard (8) is removed. Only when using in the Mitre saw mode, the top
blade guard (11) is removed.
If any of these see-through blade guards becomes dirty, or sawdust adheres to it in such a
way that the blade is no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and clean the guards carefully
with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic
guard.
If the lower blade guard is especially dirty and vision through the guard is impaired, proceed
as follows. Raise the handle fully. Remove the saw blade (Refer to the section “Installing or
removing saw blade”). Raise the lower blade guard while pushing the lever to the left. With
the lower blade guard so positioned, cleaning can be more completely and efficiently
accomplished. When cleaning is complete, reverse procedure above and secure bolt. In the
same case for the top blade guard as above stated, push in the button at its front to the
surface top and remove the top blade guard. After cleaning, always reinstall it securely.
If any of these blade guards becomes discolored through age or UV light exposure, contact
our service center for a new guard.
DO NOT DEFEAT OR REMOVE GUARDS.
