6. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid
contact with any coasting blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
7. To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage
to the full rear position after each crosscut
operation.
8. Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.

is for carrying and storage purposes only and
not for any cutting operations.
10. Check the blade carefully for cracks or dam-
age before operation. Replace cracked or dam-
aged 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.
11. While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can
occur. KICKBACK occurs when the blade
binds in the workpiece during a cutting oper-
ation and the saw blade is driven rapidly
towards the operator. Loss of control and seri-
ous personal injury can result. If blade begins
to bind during a cutting operation, do not con-
tinue to cut and release switch immediately.
12. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
13. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt.
Damage to these parts could result in blade
breakage.
14. 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.
15. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
16. Be sure that the blade does not contact the
turn base in the lowest position.
17. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw
moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
18. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
19. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
20. Stop operation immediately if you notice any-
thing abnormal.
21. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the "ON"
position.
22. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive wheels may cause an injury.
23. Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
