9.Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The Blade Cover (12) can not protect you from the Saw Blade (10) below the workpiece.

10.Never hold the workpiece being cut in your hands or across your legs. It is important to support the workpiece properly with clamps or other appropriate devices to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

11.Keep your body positioned to either side of the Saw Blade (10), but not in line with the Saw Blade. Kickback could cause the Saw to jump backwards.

12.Causes and operator prevention of “kickback”: Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound, or misaligned Saw Blade (10), causing an uncontrolled Saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator. When the Saw Blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the Saw Blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the tool rapidly back toward the operator. If the Saw Blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the Saw Blade can dig into the top surface of the workpiece causing the Saw Blade to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator. Kickback is a result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:

A. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the Saw, and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator if proper precautions are taken.

B. When the Saw Blade (10) is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the Trigger Switch (66) and hold the Saw motionless in the workpiece until the Saw Blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the Saw from the workpiece or pull the Saw backward while the Saw Blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take cor- rective actions to eliminate the cause of Saw Blade binding.

C. When restarting a Saw in the workpiece, center the Saw Blade (10) in the kerf and check that the saw teeth are not engaged into the workpiece. If the Saw Blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the Saw is restarted.

D. Support large panels to minimize the risk of Saw 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.

E. Do not use a dull or damaged Saw Blade (10). Unsharpened or improperly set Saw Blades produce a narrow kerf causing excessive friction, Saw Blade binding and kickback.
