▪
Always use blades with correct size and shape of arbour holes. Blades that do not
match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of
control.
▪
Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and
bolt where specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety
of operation.
▪
Check guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if guard
does not move freely and enclose the blade instantly. Never clamp or tie the guard
with the blade exposed. If saw is accidentally dropped, guard may be bent. Check
to make sure that guard moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other
part, in all angles and depths of cut.
▪
Check the operation and condition of the guard return spring. If the guard and the
spring do not operate properly, they must be serviced before use. Guard may
operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.
