ADDITIONAL SAFETY
RULES FOR YOUR
CIRCULAR SAW
1. Always wear a dust mask, hearing
protection and eye protection.
2. Only use saw blades recommended in the
specification.
3. Do not use any abrasive wheels.
4. Use only blade diameter(s) in accordance
with the markings.
SaFETY waRNINGS FOR aLL SawS
DaNGER: Keep hands away from
a)
cutting area and the blade. If both
hands are holding the saw, they cannot be
cut by the blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the
workpiece. the guard cannot protect you
from the blade below the workpiece.
c) 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.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your
hands or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is
important to support the work properly to
minimize body exposure, blade binding, or
loss of control.
e) Hold 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 shock the operator.
f) when ripping always use a rip fence
or straight edge guide. this improves
the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance
of blade binding.
g) always use blades with correct size
and shape (diamond versus round) of
arbor holes. Blades that do not match
the mounting hardware of the saw will run
eccentrically, causing loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect blade
washers or bolt. the blade washers and
bolt were specially designed for your saw, for
optimum performance and safety of operation.

Kickback causes and related warnings
• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched,
bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an
uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the
workpiece toward the operator.
• When the blade is pinched or bound tightly
by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls
and the motor reaction drives the unit
rapidly back toward the operator.
• If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned
in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the
blade can dig into the top surface of the
wood causing the blade to climb out of the
kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precau-
tions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the saw and
position your arm to resist kickback
forces. Position your body to either
side of the blade, but not in line with
the blade. Position the hand not
holding the saw well away from the
travel path of the saw. Kickback could
cause the saw to jump backwards, but
kickback forces can be controlled by the
operator, if proper precautions are taken.
b) when blade is binding, or when
interrupting a cut for any reason,
release the trigger and hold the
saw motionless in the material until
the blade comes to a complete
stop. Never attempt to remove the
saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion
or kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective actions to eliminate the
cause of blade binding.
c) when restarting a saw in the
workpiece, center the saw blade in
the kerf and check that saw teeth are
not engaged into the material. If saw
blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback
from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
d) Support large panels to minimize the
risk of blade pinching and kickback.
Large panels tend to sag under their own
