3. Lower guard may 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 oper-

ate automatically.

4. Always observe that the lower guard is cov-

ering the blade before placing saw down on

bench or oor.Anunprotected,coastingblade

blade is moving. Wait until blade stops before

grasping cut material. Blades coast after turn off.

3. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all

nails from lumber before cutting.

that part of the workpiece which is solidly

supported, not on the section that will fall off

when the cut is made. If the workpiece is short

or small, clamp it down. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD

SHORT PIECES BY HAND!
