body to either side of the blade, but
not in line with the blade. 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 work-
piece, 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 work-piece 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
weight. Supports must be placed under the
panel on both sides, near the line of cut and
near the edge of the panel.
e. Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set blades
product narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
f. Blade depth and bevel adjusting
locking levers must be tight and
secure before making cut. If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may
cause binding and kickback.
g. Use extra caution when making a
"plunge cut" into existing walls or
other blind areas. The protruding blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION
FOR CIRCULAR SAW WITH
INNER PENDULUM GUARD
a. Check lower guard for proper closing
before each use. Do not operate the
saw if lower guard does not move
freely and close instantly. Never clamp
or tie the lower guard into the open
position. If saw is accidentally dropped,
lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower
guard with the retracting handle and make

sure it moves freely and does not touch the
blade or any other parts, in all angles and
depths of cut.
b. Check the operation of the lower
guard spring. If the guard and the
spring are not operating properly,
they must be serviced before use.
Lower guard may operate sluggishly due
to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a
build-up of debris.
c. Lower guard should be retracted
manually only for special cuts such
as "plunge cuts" and "compound
cuts". Raise lower guard by retracting
handle and as soon as blade enters
the material, the lower guard must be
released. For all other sawing, the lower
guard should operate automatically.
d. Always observe that the lower guard
is covering the blade before placing
saw down on bench or floor. An
unprotected, coasting blade will cause the
saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is
in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for
blade to stop after switch is released.
