Select a blade appropriate for your application. Refer
to the "Accessories" section for a list of blades to be
used for the proper applications of this tool.
Always use sharp blades. Dull blades tend to over-
load the tool and increase the chance of KICKBACK.
Only use thin kerf blades with a maximum safe oper-
18
ating speed greater than the no load RPM marked on
the tool's nameplate. Read the blade manufacturer's
instructions before use. Do not use any type of abra-
sive cut-off wheel or dry diamond cutting blades. Use
the correct blade type for your application. Using the
wrong blade may result in reduced performance or
damage to the blade. Do not use blades that are
19
cracked or have broken teeth. Do not sharpen ferrous
metal cutting blades; see the blade manufacturer's
recommendations regarding sharpening.
Checking the Operation of the Lower Guard

lever. If the guard and the lever are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower
guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts,
gummy deposits, or a buildup of debris.
