OPERATION
TO LESSEN THE CHANCE OF KICKBACK:
1. Always keep the correct blade depth setting - the correct
blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 inch
below the material to be cut See Figure 7.
2, Inspect the work for knots or nails before beginning a cut
Never saw into a knot or nail,
3r Make straight cuts, Always use a straight edge guide
when rip cutting This helps prevent twisting the blade in
the cut.
4 Always use clean, sharp and properly set blades. Never
make cuts with dull blades.
5 To avoid pinching the blade, support the work properly
before beginning a cuL The right and wrong ways to
support large pieces of work are shown in figure 6.
6. When making a cut use steady, even pressure Never
force cuts.
7. Do not cut warped or wet lumber
8. Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and keep
your body in a balanced position so as to resist the forces
of kickback should it occur
WHEN USING YOUR SAW ALWAYS STAY ALERT AND
EXERCISE CONTROL. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR SAW
FROM WORKPIECE WHILE THE BLADE IS MOVING.
