Safety instructions for specific circular
saws
Cutting procedures
DANGER: Keep hands away from
-
cutting area and the blade. Keep your sec
ond hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. If both hands are holding the saw,
they cannot be cut by the blade.
-
Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
The guard cannot protect you from the
blade below the workpiece.
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of
-
the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below the
workpiece.
Never hold the workpiece in your hands or
-
across your leg while cutting. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is impor
tant to support the work properly to mini
mise body exposure, blade binding, or loss
of control.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
-
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the op
erator an electric shock.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or
-
straight edge guide. This improves the ac
curacy of cut and reduces the chance of
blade binding.
