kickback can occur when the Blade
stalls, a cut is made at an incorrect
depth, or you saw into a knot or nail.
To avoid kickback, do the following:
2. Use the correct blade depth setting.
The top blade teeth should clear the
workpiece by 1/8" to 1/4".
3. Inspect the workpiece for knots or
nails before beginning a cut. Knock
out any loose knots with a hammer
and do not saw into loose knot or
nail.
4. Use the Fence when rip cutting and
the Miter Gauge when cross-cutting.
5. Use clean, sharp and properly-set
blades. Do not use dull blades.
6. Support the workpiece properly to
avoid pinching.
