Never use damaged or incorrect

blade washers or bolts. The blade
washers and bolt were specially designed
for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation.

Kickback causes and related warnings
A 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;
when the blade is pinched or bound tightly
¢
by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and
the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back
toward the operator;
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
wood causing the blade to climb out of the
kerf and jump back toward 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.
Maintain a firm grip with both hands
1.
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.
When blade is binding, or when
2.
interrupting a cut for any reason,
release the trigger and hold the
saw motionless in the material
until the blade comes to a complete
stop. Never attempt to remove
the saw from the work or pull the
saw backwards while the blade is
in motion or kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective actions to
eliminate the cause of blade binding.
When restarting a saw in the
3.
workpiece, centre the saw blade in
the kerf 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.
Support large panels to minimise the
4.
risk of blade pinching and kickback.
10 GB / IE / NI
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.
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
5.
Unsharpened or improperly set blades
produce narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting
6.
locking levers must be tight and
secure before making cut. If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause
binding and kickback.
Use extra caution when sawing into
7.
existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
Safety instructions for circular saws with
inner pendulum guard - Lower guard
function
Check lower guard for proper
1.
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.
Check the operation of the lower
2.
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.
Lower guard may be retracted
3.
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.
Always observe that the lower
4.
guard is covering the blade before
placing saw down on bench or 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.
