OPERATION

Kickback occurs when the blade stalls

rapidly and the saw is driven back towards

you. Blade stalling is caused by any action

which pinches the blade in the wood.

To guard against kickback, avoid dangerous

practices such as the following:

1. Setting blade depth incorrectly.

2. Sawing into knots or nails in the workpiece.

3. Twisting the blade while making a cut.

4. Making a cut with a dull, gummed up or

improperly set blade.

5. Supporting the workpiece incorrectly.

(See Fig.3)

6. Forcing a cut.

7. Cutting warped or wet lumber.

8. Operating the tool incorrectly or misusing

the tool.

9. Attempting to cut with blade at less than

full speed.

WARNING:

If the blade comes

in contact with the workpiece before it

reaches full speed, it could cause the saw

to “kickback” towards you, which could

result in serious injury.

TO LESSEN THE CHANCE

OF KICKBACK, AVOID

DANGEROUS PRACTICES

SUCH AS THE FOLLOWING:

1. Keep the blade at the correct depth setting.

The depth setting should not exceed 1/4

Iinch below the material being cut.

2. Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails

before cutting. Never saw into a knot

or nail.

3. Make straight cuts. Always use a straight

edge guide when rip cutting. This helps

prevent twisting the blade.

4. Use clean, sharp and properly set blades.

Never make cuts with dull blades.

5. Support the workpiece properly before

beginning a cut.

6. Use steady, even pressure when making

a cut. Never force a cut.

7. Do not cut warped or wet lumber

8. Hold the saw rmly with both hands and

keep your body in a balanced position

so as to resist the forces if kickback

should occur.

WARNING:

To avoid kickback,

release the switch trigger immediately if

the blade binds or the saw stalls. Kickback

could cause you to lose control of the saw.

Loss of control can lead to serious injury.
