OPERATION

WARNING:

Battery tools are always in operating condition. There-

fore, switch should always be locked when not in use or

carrying at your side.

KICKBACK

See Figures 5 - 8, pages 14 and 15.

Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and the saw

is driven back towards you. Blade stalling is caused by any

action which pinches the blade in the wood.

DANGER:

Release switch immediately if blade binds or saw stalls.

Kickback could cause you to lose control of the saw. Loss

of control can lead to serious injury.

To guard against kickback, avoid dangerous practices

such as the following:

Setting blade depth incorrectly.

Sawing into knots or nails in workpiece.

Twisting the blade while making a cut.

Making a cut with a dull, gummed up, or improperly set

blade.

Supporting the workpiece incorrectly.

Forcing a cut.

Cutting warped or wet lumber.

Operating the tool incorrectly or misusing the tool.

To lessen the chance of kickback, follow these safety

practices:

Keep the blade at the correct depth setting. The depth

setting should not exceed 1/4 in. below the material being

cut.

Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before cutting.

Never saw into a knot or nail.

Make straight cuts. Always use a straight edge guide

when rip cutting. This helps prevent twisting the blade.

Use clean, sharp, and properly set blades. Never make

cuts with dull blades.

Support the workpiece properly before beginning a cut.

Use steady, even pressure when making a cut. Never

force a cut.

Do not cut warped or wet lumber.

Hold the saw firmly with both hands and keep your body

in a balanced position so as to resist the forces if kickback

should occur.

WARNING:

When using the saw, always stay alert and exercise con-

trol. Do not remove the saw from the workpiece while the

blade is moving.

WARNING:

Do not allow familiarity with products to make you care-

less. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is

sufficient to inflict serious injury.

WARNING:

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to

comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in

objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible

serious injury.

WARNING:

Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom-

mended by the manufacturer of this product. The use of

attachments or accessories not recommended can result

in serious personal injury.
