Installing
Guard
/ Setting
Spreader
The blade guard and the spreader
are very
important
safety features
of your saw. The
guard covers a large part of the blade and
reduces
the risk of amputation.
The spreader
rides in the kerf of the cut wood during
rip-
ping, and helps keep the two sides from
pinching
the blade
and causing
a kickback.

can be cut off from
blade
contact
if the
blade guard is not used properly.
Al-
ways put the blade
guard
on your saw
and adjust it correctly.
