SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they are not kept clean,
sharp, and properly set. Using a dull blade will place a heavy load on the saw
and increase the danger of kickback. Keep extra blades on hand, so that
sharp blades are always 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 operat-
ing 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.
