(Original instructions)

e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any

other condition that may affect the power tools

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in

accordance with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for operations different

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This will

ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Cutting procedures

a. Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade.

Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor

housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot

be cut by the blade.

b. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard

cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.

c. 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.

d. 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 minimize body

exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

e. 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.

f. When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge

guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the

chance of blade binding.

g. Always use 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.

h. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or

bolt.

The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for

your saw, for optimum performance and safety of

operation.

Further safety instructions for all saws

Kickback causes and related warnings

u 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;

u 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;

u 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.

a. Maintain a firm grip with both hands 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.

b. 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 backward while the blade is

in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take

corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

c. 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.

d. 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.

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.

a. Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or

other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects

that can cause kickback.
