Kickback
Kickback is a sudden and powerful movement of the tool
out of the work piece. It can make the user loosing
control and cause severe injury. Usually it is caused when
the cutting disc is stuck in the piece or due to deficient
operation. To avoid this to happen the following caution
measures shall be taken:
• Use cutting discs that are in good shape. Double check
they are properly fixed. Bent, damages or blunt discs get
stuck in the material causing kickback.
• When operating the tool hold it firmly with one hand
and the other hand on the auxiliary handle. Always use
both hands. Keep good footing and balance. Set both feet
on the ground to prevent a possible kickback.
• To make a cut align the disc with the cutting axle and
wait until the disc reaches its maximum speed before
starting to cut. Do not try to cut the work piece with the
discs teeth on the piece. It could cause kickback.
• To restart working inside a cut, center the cutting disc
and check the teeth are not buried into the material.
• While operating, if the disc bends or stops cutting,
release the switch and hold the tool inside the work piece
until t he disc comes to a complete stop. Do not try t o
remove the disc while in movement. It could cause
kickback.
• To minimize the risk of having the disc stuck and cause
kickback, before cutting a piece of wood remove all the nails.
Wood that is wet, warped or pressed need special care
when cut. When cutting large planks of wood use supports
in both sides of the cutting line to prevent that the wood’s
own weight warps the plank and closes the cut catching the
disc. Wood gum and resin that harden in the cutting disc
make the saw run slow. Use a gum and resin remover, hot
water or kerosene to remove accumulated material. DO
NOT use gasoline.
• Use extreme care when making
pocket cuts
on walls or
blind spots. The disc may make contact with hidden
objects and cause kickback.
• While operating the tool do not put your hand or body
aligned to the cutting axis. If kickback happens there is the
possibility of severe injury.
Safety warnings for
manual saws
• Before starting any cut the depth adjusting and bevel levers shall be tight and fastened. If the lever moves during the cut
they can bend the disc and cause kickback. An excessive cutting depth position increases the load in the unit and the
possibility that the disc is bent inside the cut. It also increases the possibility the cut closes increasing the available area
above the cutting disc.
Toxic materials
Dust originated by some materials have chemical
substances known to cause cancer, birth defects and
other reproductive damage. Some of these chemical
substances are:
• Lead in lead-based paints.
• Crystal silica in bricks and cement and other masonry
products.
• Arsenic and chromium in wood treated with chemical
substances.
• Asbestos.
The risk involved to exposure to these substances varies
according to the frequency of the job. To reduce
exposure to these chemical substances work in
well-ventilated areas and wear the right safety equipment
like anti-dust mask specifically designed to filter
microscopic particles.
