Use extra caution when making a "plunge cut" into existing walls or other blind areas.

[] Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate saw if lower
guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into
the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent° Raise the lower
blade guard with the retracting handle. Make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade
or any other part, in alt angles and depths of cut
[] Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not
operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly
due to damaged parts, gummy deposits or a buildup of debris.

and "compound cut." Raise lower blade guard by retracting handle. As soon as blade
enters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower
guard should operate automatically,
[] Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing the saw down
on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards,
cutting whatever is in its path° Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is
released,,
