Safety instructions for all saws –
Cutting procedures
1.
DANGER! Keep hands away
from cutting area and the
blade. If both hands are holding the saw,
they cannot be cut by the blade.
2. Do not reach underneath the
workpiece. The guard cannot protect you
from the blade below the workpiece.
3. Adjust the cutting depth to the
thickness of the workpiece. Less than a
full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible
below the workpiece.
4. Never hold piece being cut in your
hands or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is
important to support the work properly to
minimise body exposure, blade binding, or
loss of control.
5. Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with
a “live” wire will also make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and could give
the operator an electric shock.
6. When ripping, always use a rip fence
or straight edge guide. This improves
the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance
of blade binding.
7. Always use saw blades with correct
size and shape (diamond versus
round) of arbour holes. Blades that do
not match the mounting hardware of the saw
will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
8. Never use damaged or incorrect
blade washers or bolts. The blade
washers and bolt were specially designed
for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation.

Kickback causes and related warnings
A kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched,
bound or misaligned saw blade, causing
an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the
workpiece toward the operator;
¢ when the blade is pinched or bound tightly
by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and
the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back
toward the operator;
¢ if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned
in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the
blade can dig into the top surface of the
wood causing the blade to climb out of the
kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and / or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below.
1. Maintain a firm grip on the saw and
position your arms to resist kickback
forces. Position your body to either
side of the blade, but not in line with
the blade. Kickback could cause the saw
to jump backwards, but kickback forces
can be controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken.
2. When blade is binding, or when
interrupting a cut for any reason,
release the trigger and hold the
saw motionless in the material
until the blade comes to a complete
stop. Never attempt to remove
the saw from the work or pull the
saw backwards while the blade is
in motion or kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective actions to
eliminate the cause of blade binding.
3. When restarting a saw in the
workpiece, centre the saw blade in
the kerf and check that saw teeth
are not engaged into the material.
If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or
kickback from the workpiece as the saw is
restarted.
4. Support large panels to minimise the
risk of blade pinching and kickback.
Large panels tend to sag under 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.
5. Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set blades
produce narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
6. 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.
7. Use extra caution when sawing into
existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
