Additional Safety for Track Saws
READ and understand this
entire manual before using
this machine. Serious per-
sonal injury may occur
if safety and operational
information is not under-
stood and followed. DO
NOT risk your safety by
not reading!
USE this and other machinery with cau-
tion and respect. Always consider safety
first, as it applies to your individual work-
ing conditions. No list of safety guidelines
can be complete—every shop environment
is different. Failure to follow guidelines
could result in serious personal injury,
damage to equipment or poor work results.
BLADE MAINTENANCE.
Always ensure that the
saw blades are sharp, undamaged, and
tightly attached before each use. Only use
blades that meet the specifications listed on
the data sheet.
RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Only use
appropriate blades for this saw. Do not use
blades with different diameters or arbor
hole shapes/sizes, as they will not rotate
concentrically and may damage the saw and
throw blade fragments with deadly force.
RIVING KNIFE. Make sure the riving knife is
thicker than the saw blade but thinner than
the blade teeth. The riving knife must be
present in the kerf and properly adjusted
with the blade to be effective.
GUARDS. Ensure guards are in place and
operating correctly before each cut. Repair
or replace guard if it is damaged.
PHYSICAL SAFETY. Keep hand and fingers clear
of cutting path at all times. Never reach
under workpiece near blade, and do not
perform a cut while supporting workpiece
with one hand or balancing it on a leg or any
other body part.
CUTTING DEPTH.
Set the cutting depth so the
blade protrudes no more than
1
⁄
8
" beyond
the backside or bottom of the workpiece.
STRAIGHT CUTS.
Only make straight cuts. Always
use a guide to reduce risk of binding and
kickback. Do not make freehand cuts!
STOPPING AND RESTARTING CUTS.
Allow blade
to reach full speed before cutting. Complete
all cuts when possible. If a cut must be
interrupted, let blade come to a complete
stop before removing saw. Before resuming,
place blade in center of kerf and verify teeth
do not contact workpiece.
CUTTING CORRECT MATERIAL.
Use the correct
blade for the type of material being cut.
Do not use this saw for cutting logs, roots,
or trimming shrubs and trees. Do not cut
warped, twisted, or cupped workpieces.
PLUNGE CUTS.
To decrease risk of kickback,
do not allow the saw base to shift while
performing beveled plunge cuts. Before
making blind plunge cuts, verify the cutting
path is clear of obstructions (electrical
wires, gas lines, plumbing, metal or stone,
etc.) to reduce the risk of explosion, fire,
electrocution, property damage, or kickback.
Disconnect fuses or circuit breakers, and
shut off nearby water and gas lines if cutting
nearby.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT.
Properly support all
workpieces and cutoffs to reduce risk of
binding and kickback. Place supports under
both sides of the cut line.
WORKPIECE CLEARANCE. Ensure adequate
clearance under workpiece to reduce risk of
blade contacting materials (concrete, rocks,
metal, etc.) that could damage it and cause
it to fly apart.
