KICKBACK 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. 14 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 towards the operator 24 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 ked and jump back toward the operator. 3_ * . r Fig. 1 Incorrect Support support is too far from cut line Kickback is the result of 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. 28191 Manual Revised 07©202 Page 11 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 is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. 7_ . Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade Fig. 2 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 dam- g_ aged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. Correct Sup'port ..... _j I support is close enough to cut line 10. 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. 11. Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing walls or other blind areas° The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback. 28191 Mammal Revised_07-0202 Page 12 Arbor: The shaft on which the cutting tool is mounted.

Keep extra blades on hand, so that available° Gum and wood pitch that have hardened on the blades will slow the saw down. Use gum and pitch remover, hot water, or kerosene to remove these accumulations. DO NOT USE GASOLINE. BLADE GUARD SYSTEM The lower blade guard attached to your saw is there for your protection and safety, it should never be altered for any reason. If it becomes damaged or begins to return to position slowly, do not operate the saw until the damage has been repaired or the blade guard has been replaced. Always leave the blade guard in the operating position when using the saw. ,_ DANGER: When sawing through a workpiece, the lower blade guard does not cover the blade on the underside of the workpiece. Keep hands and fingers away from the cutting area. If any part of your body comes in contact with the moving blade, serious injury will result. CAUTnON: Never use the saw when the guard is not operating correctly. Check the guard for correct operation before each use. The guard is operating correctly when it moves freely, and readily returns to the closed position. If you drop the saw, check the lower blade guard and bumper for damage at all depth-of-cut settings before reuse. 28191 Manual Revised_0743202 Page 16 STARTING/STOPPIING SAW (Fig. 4) THE Fig° 4 To start the saw: Depress the trigger switch.
