Causes and operator

prevention of kickback:

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:

1. when the blade is pinched or bound

tightly, the blade stalls and the motor

reaction drives the unit rapidly back

toward the operator.

2. 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 workpiece causing the blade

to close in around the material and jump

back towards the operator.

Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/

or incorrect operating procedures or

conditions and can be avoided by taking

proper precautions as given below.

a) Maintain a firm grip with both hands

on the saw and position your arms to

resist kickback forces. Position your 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) if the blade is binding, or when

interrupting a cut for any reason, release

the trigger and hold the saw motionless

in the material until the blades come to a

complete stop. Never attempt to remove the

saw from the work or pull the saw backward

while the blades are 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,

centre the saw blade in the cutting groove

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 minimise 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) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking

levers must be tight and secure before

making a cut. If the blade adjustment shifts

while cutting it may cause binding and kickback.

f) Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades

produce a narrow cutting groove causing

excessive friction, blade 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.

Further Safety instructions

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 part, 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 may 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 a bench or the 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 the

blade to stop after switch is released.

e) Do not use high Speed Steel (hSS) saw

blades.

f) inspect the machine and the blade

before each use. Do not use deformed,

cracked, worn or otherwise damaged blades.

g) Never use the saw without the original

guard protection system. Do not lock the

moving guard in the open position. Ensure that

the guard operates freely without jamming.

h) Only use blades that comply with the

characteristics specified in this manual.

Before using accessories, always compare the

maximum allowed RPM of the accessory with

the RPM of the machine.

wArNiNg: If any parts are missing,

do not operate your machine until the missing

parts are replaced. Failure to follow this rule

could result in serious personal injury.
