Caution: Never pull the Saw backwards since the Saw Blade will climb out of the cut and kickback will occur.
INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Make sure the Trigger Switch of the Flush Cut Saw is in its “OFF” position, and that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet, before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
1.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Saw. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
2.Before remounting the Saw Blade (2), remove all sawdust that has accumulated around the Safety Guard (6) and Blade Guard Frame (9).
3.Regularly inspect and tighten all mounting screws and knobs.
4.Keep Saw Blade clean and sharp. Sharp blades minimize stalling and kickback.
5.Keep guards in good working order.
6.Keep motor air vent clean of dust and debris. Vacuum periodically.
7.If the tool is not operating normally, making unusual noises, or appears defective, stop using it immediately and get it repaired.
8.Clean tool with a damp cloth and light detergent. Do not use solvents as they can damage and crack the plastic parts.
