Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Keep hands away from cutting area . Never reach underneath the work piece for any reason. Do not insert fingers or thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating blade and blade clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by gripping the shoe.
Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may cause the saw to swerve or stall under pressure. Always use the appropriate type of saw blade for the workpiece material and type of cut.
When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they are free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
Do not touch the workpiece or the blade
immediately after operating the tool. They can become
very hot.
