saw blade sharp and clean. Failure to do so
greatly increases friction, decreases cut quality, and
increases the possibility of a kickback.
17.
the saw blade is parallel with the miter
slots and with the rip fence. A blade that is not aligned
parallel can cause the workpiece to be pinched between
the blade and the fence causing burning or kickbacks.
18.
use blade guard on all through cuts. This will
help prevent the cut from closing on the back of the saw
blade. The blade guard also has anti-kickback fingers
which minimize the chance of a workpiece being thrown
back during a cutting operation.
19.
push the workpiece past the blade.
release a workpiece until it is past the blade
and removed from the saw.
20.
execute a cut when you do not have complete
control of the situation.
21.
cut a workpiece that is too large for you to
safely handle. Use an out feed table or work stand to
properly support the piece.

or twisted board along the rip fence can get pinched

The switch provided with your saw is a magnetic switch
designed for 240 volt single phase usage only. The switch
has a plug that is designed to plug into a 240 volt outlet.
There are many different configurations for 240 volt outlets,
so it is conceivable that the configuration of the plug may
not match the configuration of your existing outlet. If this is
the case, you will have to replace the plug with a UL/CSA
approved plug that matches the configuration of your 240V
outlet
