43. Pay particular attention to instructions for
reducing risk of KICKBACK. KICKBACK is a
sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade. KICKBACK causes the
ejection of the workpiece from the tool back
towards the operator. KICKBACKS CAN LEAD
TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Avoid
KICKBACKS by keeping the blade sharp, by
keeping the rip fence parallel to the blade, by
keeping the riving knife and blade guard in
place and operating properly, by not releasing
the workpiece until you have pushed it all the
way past the blade, and by not ripping a
workpiece that is twisted or warped or does
not have a straight edge to guide along the
fence.
44. Avoid abrupt, fast feeding. Feed as slowly as
possible when cutting hard workpieces. Do
not bend or twist workpiece while feeding. If
you stall or jam the blade in the workpiece,
turn the tool off immediately. Unplug the tool.
Then clear the jam.
45. Before turning over the tool, always make sure
that the stopper pin has securely locked the
tool head in the lowest position

When lowering the handle while pushing the lever to the
left, the lower blade guard A rises automatically. The lower
blade guard B rises as it contacts a workpiece. The lower
blade guards are spring loaded so it returns to its original
position when the cut is completed and the handle is
raised. The top blade guard falls flat on the table surface
after workpiece has passed under it. NEVER DEFEAT OR
REMOVE THE LOWER BLADE GUARDS, THE SPRING
WHICH ATTACHES TO THE LOWER BLADE GUARD,
OR THE TOP BLADE GUARD except for the note below.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain
each blade guard in good condition. Any irregular
operation of the guards should be corrected immediately.
Check to assure spring loaded return action of the lower
blade guards. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF THE LOWER

guards. Only when using in the table saw mode, the
lower blade guard C is removed. Only when using in
the miter saw mode, the top blade guard is removed.
If any of these see-through blade guards becomes dirty,
or sawdust adheres to it in such a way that the blade is
no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and clean the
guards carefully with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents
or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic guard.
If the lower blade guard A is especially dirty and vision
through the guard is impaired, proceed as follows. Raise
the handle fully. Remove the saw blade (Refer to the
section "Installing or removing saw blade"). Raise the
lower blade guard A while pushing the lever to the left.
