Wipe excess oil from workpiece before
cutting. Lubrication will cause blade to slip
within tool.
Hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control. Figures in this manual illustrate typical
hand support of the saw.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do not
reach under the material being cut. The
proximity of the blade to your hand is hidden
from your sight.
Keep hands from between the blade and
material guide. Always start cut with
workpiece on the material guide. When tool
starts work will be pulled to the material
guide and can pinch your fingers.
Before starting to cut, turn tool "ON" and
allow the blade to come to full speed. Tool
can chatter or vibrate if blade speed is too
slow at beginning of cut.
GFCI and personal protection devices like
electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC
rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard
to the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched or safety guard return
springs may be improperly mounted.
Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.

Do not touch the blade or the workpiece
immediately after operation. Blade and
workpiece will be hot.
When removing the blade from the tool
avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the blade
or accessory. Accessories may be hot after
prolonged use.
Do not "jam" the blade or apply excessive
pressure to the tool when cutting.
Overstressing the blade increases the
loading and susceptibility to twisting or
binding of the blade in the cut and the
possibility of blade breakage.
Do not operate saw without cover plate
secured on the saw. Contact with moving
parts may result in serious personal injury.
