risk of injury from blade contact.
• The workpiece must be stationary and clamped
or held against both the fence and the table.
Do not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut
"freehand" in any way. Unrestrained or moving
workpieces could be thrown at high speeds,
causing injury.
• Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull
the saw through the workpiece. To make a cut,
raise the saw head and pull it out over the work-
piece without cutting, start the motor, press the
saw head down and push the saw through the
workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to
cause the saw blade to climb on top of the work-
piece and violently throw the blade assembly
towards the operator.
• Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece "cross handed" i.e.
holding the workpiece to the right of the saw
blade with your left hand or vice versa is very
dangerous.
• Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not
be obvious and you may be seriously injured.
• Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always
make certain that there is no gap between the
workpiece, fence and table along the line of the
cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or
shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw
blade while cutting. There should be no nails or
foreign objects in the workpiece.
• Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all
tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the workpie-
ce. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other
objects that contact the revolving blade can be
thrown with high speed.
• Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multi-
ple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or
braced and may bind on the blade or shift during
cutting.
• Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a
level, firm work surface before use. A level and
firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre
saw becoming unstable.
• Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel
8
or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable
fence is set correctly to support the workpie-
ce and will not interfere with the blade or the
guarding system. Without turning the tool "ON"
and with no workpiece on the table, move the
saw blade through a complete simulated cut to
assure there will be no interference or danger of
cutting the fence.
• Provide adequate support such as table exten-
sions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is
wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces
longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip
if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or
workpiece tips, it can lift the lower guard or be
thrown by the spinning blade.
• Do not use another person as a substitute for
a table extension or as additional support. Un-
stable support for the workpiece can cause the
blade to bind or the workpiece to shift during the
cutting operation pulling you and the helper into
the spinning blade.
• The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning saw
blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the
cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade
and thrown violently.
• Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods or
tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being
cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the work
with your hand into the blade.
• Let the blade reach full speed before contacting
the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
• If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts
to stop and disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack. Then
work to free the jammed material. Continued
sawing with a jammed workpiece could cause
loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
• After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold
the saw head down and wait for the blade to
stop before removing the cut-off piece. Rea-
ching with your hand near the coasting blade is
dangerous.
• Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down position.
The braking action of the saw may cause the saw
head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a
