Do not use tool if switch does not turn iton or off.
A toolthatcannotbe controlledwiththe switchis
dangerousand must be repaired.
Disconnect batter/pack from tool or place the
switch in the looked or off position before making
any adjustments, changing accoseodes, or stodng
tool. Such preventivesafetymeasures reduce the dsk
of starting the toolaccidentally.
Store idle tools out of the mech of children and
other untrained persons. Toolsare dangerousin the
handsof untrainedusam.
When batter/pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shortingthe batteryterminals togethermay cause
sparks,bums,or a fire.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properlymaintainedtoolswith sharp
cuttingedges are lesslikelyto bindand are easier to
ccntrol.
•Check for miaslignmeot or binding of moving
pe4s, breakage of paris, and any other condition
that may affect the tool's operation, if damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents
are caused bypoorlymaintainedtools.
•Use only ecneasodas that are recommended by
the manufaotumr for your model. Accessoriesthat
may be suitablefor one tool,may createa riskof injury
when used on another tool.
Service
Tool se_ice must be performed by qualified repair
personnel. Serviceor maintenanceperformedby
unqualifiedpersonnelmay result in a riskofinjury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replace.
merit pads. Follow instructions in the Maintenance
section of this manual. Usa of unauthorizedpartsor
failuretofollow MaintenanceInstructionsmay createa
_sk of shockor injury.
•Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact
hidden wiring. Contactwitha "live" wire will make exposedmetalparts of the tool "live" and shockthe operator.
Additional Rules For Safe Operation
•Know your power tool. Reed operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hmrds misted to
this tool. Followingthis rulewillreducethe risk of
electricshock,fire, or seriousinjury.
•Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your prod-
uct will drew. Awire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least
16 is recommended for an extension cord 100 f_st
or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not
recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord. An undersizedcordwillcause a dropin line
voltage resultingin lossof powerand overheating.
Important Rules For Battery Tools
•Batter/tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
when not using your better/tool or when chang-
ing accessories.
•Do not place batter/tools or their baHefies near
fire or heat. This willreducethe riskofexplosionand
possibleinjury.
•Batteriesvent hydrogengasand canexplode inthe
presenceof a sourceof ignition,suchas a pilotlight.
To reducethe riskof sedous personal injury,never
useany cordlessproductin the presenceofopen
flame. An explodedbattery can propeldebdsand
chemicals. Ifexposed,flushwithwater immediately.
•Do not charge baiter/tool in a damp orwet loca-
tion. Followingthisrulewillreducethe risk of electric
shock,tim, or seriouspersonal injury.
•Your belier/tool should be charged in a location
where the temperature is more than 50°F hut less
then 100°F. Followingthisrule will reducethe risk of
electricshock,fire,or serious personalinjury.
•Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
batter/leakage may occur. If liquid comas in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with
soap and water, then neutralize with leman juice or
vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them
with clean water for at Isesl 10 minutes, then seek
immediate medical attention. Following this rule will
reducetheriskof seriouspersonalinjury.

Additional Specific Safety Rules
• DANGERI Keep hands away from cutting am and
blade. Keep your second hand on auxilianj handle
or motor housing. If bothhandsam holdingthe saw,
they cannotbe cutbythe blade,
•Kasp your body positioned to either side of the
saw blade, but not in line with the sew blade.
KICKBACK couldcause the saw tojump backwards.
•Do not reach underneath the work. The guard
cannot pmtactyou fromthe blade belowthework.
•Chack the lower guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate 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 accidentallydropped,lowerguardmay bebent.
Raise the lower guardwiththe retractinghandleand
make sure itmovesfreely and does not touchthe
bladeor any otherpart,in all anglesand depthsofcut.
•Check the operation and condition of the lower
guard spdng, If the guard and the spdng are not
operating properly, they must be serviced before
use. Lowerguard may operatesluggishlydue to
damaged parts,gummydeposits,or a buildupof
debds.
•Lower guard should be retracted manually only for
special cute such as =Pocket Cuts" and "Com-
pound Cuts". Raise lower guard by Retracting
Handle. As soon as blade enters the mstadal,
lower guard must be released. Forall othersawing,
the lowerguardshouldoperateautomatically.
•Always obeerve that the lower guard is covedng
the blade before placing saw down on bench or
floor. An unprotected,coastingbladewillcause the
saw to walk backwards,cuttingwhatever isin its path,
Beaware ofthe timeittakes forthe bladeto stop after
switchisreleased.
NEVER hold piece being cut in your hands or
across your leg. It is important to supportthe work
properlyto minimizebodyexposure,blade binding,or
lossof control.
•Hold tool by insulating gripping sudecse when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden widng. Contactwitha "live"wire
willalso make exposedmetal parts of the tool"live"
and shockthe operator.
•When dpping always use a rip fence for a straight
edge guide. Thisimprovesthe accuracyof cutand
reducesthe chanceof blade binding.
• Always use blades with cowect size end shape
(diamond vs. round) arbor holes. Bladesthatdo not
matchthe mountinghardwareofthe saw willrun
eccentdcally,causinglossofcontrol.
•Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or
bolts. The blade washersand boltwere specially
designedfor your saw,foroptimumperformanceand
safety of operation.
• Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback:
Kickback is a suddenreactiontoa pinched,bound,or
misalignedsaw blade, causing an unccntmlledsaw to
liftup and outofthe workpiecetowardthe operator.
When the bladeispinchedor hound tightlyby the kerr
closingdown,the bladestallsand the motorreaction
drivesthe unitrapidlybeck towardthe operator.
If theblade becomestwistedor misalignedinthe cut,
theteeth at the backedge ofthe blade can digintothe
top surfaceofthe woodcausing the blade toclimbout
ofthe ken'and jumpback towardthe operator.
Kickback isa resultof toolmisuseand/orincorract
operatingproceduresor conditionsand can be
avoidedby takingproperprecautionsas givenbelow:
•Maintain a finmgrip on the sew and position your
body and arm in a way that allows you to resist
KICKBACK forces. KICKBACKforcescan be con-
trolled by the operator,ifproperprecautionsare taken.
• When blade is binding, orwhen intemupting a cut
for any reason, release the trigger and hold the
saw motionless in the mutadal until the blade
comas to a complete stop. Never attempt to
remove the saw from the work or pull the sew
backward while the blade is in motion or KICK-
BACK may occur. Investigateand take corrective
actions to eliminatethe cause ofblade binding.
• When restarting a sew in the workplace, canter the
saw blade in the kerr and check that teeth are not
engaged into the mstedal. If saw blade isbinding,it
maywalk upor KICKBACKfrom the workpiecaas the
saw is restarted.
•Support large panels to minimize the dsk of blade
pinching and KICKBACK. Large panels tend tosag
undertheirown weight.Supportsmustbe placed
underthe penal on bothsides,nearthe lineof cutand
nearthe edge ofthe panel.
•Do not use dull or damaged blade. Unsharpenedor
impmpedyset bladesproducenarrowken'causing
excessivefriction, blade binding,and KICKBACK.
•Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levera
must be tight and secure before making cut. If
blade adjustmentsh_ftswhilecutting,it willcause
bindingand KICKBACK.
• Use extra caution when making a "Pocket Cut"
into existing walls or other blind areas. The protrud-
ingblademay cutobjectsthatcan cause KICKBACK.

BLADESETTOODEEP Fig, 9
Tho best guard against kickback is to avoid dangomus
practices.
Kickbackoccurswhen the bladestallsrapidlyand the saw
isddvenbacktowardsyou. Bladestallingiscaused by any
actionwhichpinchesthe bladein thewood.
_k DANGER: Release switchimmediately ifblade
bindsor sew stalls. Kickback couldcause you to lose
control ofyour saw. Lossofcontrolcan lead to
sadous injury,
KICKBACK IS CAUSED BY:
• Incorrect blade depth setting,See Figure9.
•Sawingintoknotsor nailsinworkpiece.
•Twistingbladewhile makinga cut.
•Makinga cutwitha dull,gummedup.or improperlyset
blade.
•Incorrectlysupportingworkplace.See Figure 10.
TO LESSEN THE CHANCE OF KICKBACK:
• Alwayskeep the correctblade depthsetting- the
correct blade depthsettingforall cutsshouldnot
exceed 1/4 in.belowthe materialto be cut.
