this product until the parts are replaced. Use of
this product with damaged or missing parts could
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to modify this product or create

misuse and could result in a hazardous condition
leading to possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
To prevent accidental starting that could cause
serious personal injury, always remove the battery
pack from the tool when assembling parts.
WARNING:
A 6-1/2 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of
the saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow
outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the
spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the
blade guard, while thicker blades will prevent blade
screw from securing blade on spindle. Either of
these situations could result in a serious accident.
NOTICE:
To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock,
always allow motor to come to a complete stop
before engaging spindle lock.
