11. Never confine the part of the workpiece being cut away by holding,
clamping or using length stops against it. That part of the workpiece
could become wedged against the blade and be thrown violently. The
cut away part of the workpiece must be free to move sideways.
12. Ensure the tension handle is tightened (making the saw blade taut)
before each use.
13. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before using the tool. The
tool may eject an attached wrench or a key and cause an injury to
you or a bystander.
POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1.
DO NOT use any power tool with a malfunctioning power switch or
control. A power tool that fails to respond to the controls is
dangerous and could cause an injury. A qualified technician must
repair and verify the power tool is operating correctly before it can
be used.
2.
Do not allow the tool to run without load for an extended period of
time, as this will shorten its life.
3.
Do not cover the air vents. Proper cooling of the motor is necessary
to ensure normal life of the tool.
4.
Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is off when connecting
to the power source.
5.
Disconnect the power source before installing or servicing the tool.
6.
After making adjustments, make sure that any adjustment devices
are securely tightened.
7.
Never force the tool. Forcing the tool will slow it down and could
cause the saw blade to bind or kickback. Excessive pressure could
break the tool, resulting in damage to your workpiece or cause serious
personal injury. If your tool runs smoothly under no load, but does not
run smoothly under load, then excessive pressure is being used.
Apply gentle pressure and allow the tool to do the work.
8.
Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can operate at high
temperatures and can cause a burn injury.
9.
Cutting material and the motor housing can get very hot during
operation. Stop work until tool and blade both cool down to safe
temperature.
