d. Never hold the piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to
minimise body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
e. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
f.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the
accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding
g. Always use blades with the correct size and shape of arbor holes. Blades that do
not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss
of control.
h. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and
bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety
of operation.
KICKBACK CAUSES AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing
an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator.
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls
and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator.
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the
blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the
kerf and jump back toward the operator. Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below.
a. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist
kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with
the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback
forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
b. When the blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the
trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of the blade binding.
c. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that
the saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If a saw blade binds, it may
walk up, or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
d. Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large
panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the
panel on both sides near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
e. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Un-sharpened or improperly set blades
produce a narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before
making the cut. If the blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding
and kickback.
