their own weight. Supports must be placed under the
panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the
edge of the panel.
e.
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened
or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers
must be tight and secure before making cut.
If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and
kickback.
g.
Use extra caution when making a “plunge cut” into
existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding
blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
a.
Check lower guard for proper closing before each
use.
Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not
move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the
lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally
dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard
with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely
and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all
angles and depths of cut.
b.
Check the operation of the lower guard spring.
If the
guard and the spring are not operating properly, they
must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate
sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a
build-up of debris.
c.
Lower guard should be retracted manually only for
special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and “compound
cuts.”
Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as
soon as blade enters the material, the lower guard must
be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should
operate automatically.
d.
Always observe that the lower guard is covering the
blade before placing saw down on bench or floor.
An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to
walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware
of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is
released.
e. Do not use abrasive wheels
