Kickback causes and related warnings

• 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 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 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 backward 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 workpiece, cen-

tre 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 kick-

back from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.

• Support large panels to minimise the risk of

blade pinching and kickback. 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.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades

produce narrow kerf causing excessive

friction, blade binding and kickback.

• Blade depth and bevel adjusting 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 existing

walls or other blind areas. The protruding

blade may cut objects that can cause

kickback.

Lower guard function

• Check lower guard for proper 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 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.

• The lower guard may be retracted manually

only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts

and angle cuts". Raise the lower guard by

retracting the handle and as soon as the

blade enters the material, release the lower

guard. For all other sawing operations, the

lower guard should operate automatically.

• Always observe that the lower 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.
