[. . . ] Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools w i t h your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations. [. . . ] 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 t o a complete stop. Never attempt t o 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 t o eliminate the cause of blade binding. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center 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 KICKBACK from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. Support large panels t o minimize the risk of blade pinching and KICKBACK. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel as shown in Fig. When cutting operation requires the resting of the saw on the work piece, the saw shall be rested on the laraer Dortion and the smaller ece cut off. To avoid kickback do support board or panel near the cut. Fig. ' Don't support board or panel away from the cut. Fig. : 5 Do not use dull or damaged blade. 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 making a "Pocket Cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. If kickback occurs, the saw could easily jump backwards over your hand, possibly causing severe injury. Fig. When operating the saw, keep the cord away from the cutting area and position it so that it will not be caught on the workpiece during the cutting operation. Operate w i t h proper hand support, proper workpiece support, and supply cord routing away from the work area. A typical illustration of proper hand support, workpiece support, and supply cord routing. Fig. 1 WARN ING : It is important t o support the workpiece properly and t o hold the saw firmly t o prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. Place the wider portion of the saw base o n that part of the workpiece which is solidly supported, not on the section that will fall off when the cut is made. DON'T TRY TO HOLD SHORT PLACES BY HAND! Fig. Fig. circular saw held upside down in a vise. This is extremely dangerous and can lead t o serious accidents. I Fig. ' 17. Before setting the tool down after completing a cut, be sure that the lower (telescoping) guard has closed and the blade has come t o a complete stop. 7 SYMBOLS The followings show the symbols used for tool. amperes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . herts kilograms hours minutes seconds alternating current direct current no load speed alternating or direct current Class II Construction splash-proof construction watertight construction revolutions or reciprocation per minute number of blow . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
