4. Do not operate saw without guards in place.
Check blade guard for proper closing before each
use. Do not operate saw if blade guard does not
move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or
tie the blade guard into the open position.
Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid contact
5.
with any coasting blade. It can still cause severe injury.
6. To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the
full rear position after each crosscut operation.
7. Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.
8. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down
is for carrying and storage purposes only and
not for any cutting operations.
9. Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
blade immediately. Gum and wood pitch hardened
on blades slows saw and increases potential for
kickback. Keep blade clean by first removing it from
tool, then cleaning it with gum and pitch remover, hot
water or kerosene. Never use gasoline to clean blade.
10. While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can occur.
KICKBACK occurs when the blade binds in the
workpiece during a cutting operation and the saw
blade is driven rapidly towards the operator. Loss
of control and serious personal injury can result. If
blade begins to bind during a cutting operation, do
not continue to cut and release switch immediately.
11. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
12. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt. Damage
to these parts could result in blade breakage.
13. Make sure that the turn base is properly
secured so it will not move during operation.
Use the holes in the base to fasten the saw to a
stable work platform or bench. NEVER use tool
where operator positioning would be awkward.
