Kickback causes and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, jammed or a misaligned saw
blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece
toward the operator.
When the blade is pinched or jammed tightly by the kerf closing down,
the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward
the operator.
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 kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as follows.
