Bench Mounting - Makita LF1000 Instruction Manual

45. Make sure that the turn table is fixed securely.
46. Make sure that the arm is securely fixed in the
working position. Tighten the lever clockwise
to fix the arm.
47. Use a push stick or a push block to avoid
working with the hands and fingers close to
the saw blade.
48. Make sure the blade is not contacting the riving
knife or workpiece before the switch is turned on.
49. Pay particular attention to instructions for
reducing risk of KICKBACK. KICKBACK is a
sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade. KICKBACK causes the
ejection of the workpiece from the tool back
towards the operator. KICKBACKS CAN LEAD
TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Avoid
KICKBACKS by keeping the blade sharp, by
keeping the rip fence parallel to the blade, by
keeping the riving knife and blade guard in
place and operating properly, by not releasing
the workpiece until you have pushed it all the
way past the blade, and by not ripping a
workpiece that is twisted or warped or does
not have a straight edge to guide along the
fence.
50. Avoid abrupt, fast feeding. Feed as slowly as
possible when cutting hard workpieces. Do
not bend or twist workpiece while feeding. If
you stall or jam the blade in the workpiece,
turn the tool off immediately. Unplug the tool.
Then clear the jam.
51. Before turning over the tool, always make sure
that the stopper pin has securely locked the
tool head in the lowest position.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
