Place the work with its “good” side – the one on which appearance
is most important – down. The saw cuts upward, so any splintering
will be on the work face that is up when you saw it.
Cutting
DANGER: Risk of electrical shock. Keep the cord away from the
cutting area to prevent electrocution.
WARNING: If the guard binds or is sluggish, return the saw to
your nearest authorized D

WARNING: For maximum protection, effective control of this
powerful saw requires two-handed operation. support the work
properly and hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of control which
could cause injury. Refer to Figure 7 for the proper way to hold the
saw.
WARNING: Stay alert and maintain a firm grip on the saw.
Release the switch immediately if the blade binds or the saw stalls.
Keep your blade sharp. Properly support panels (Fig. 5, 6). Use the
track when ripping. DO NOT force the tool. DO NOT remove the
saw from the workpiece while the blade is moving.
WARNING: To help reduce the risk of personal injury, always
clamp work. Don’t try to hold short pieces by hand! Remember to
support cantilevered and over hanging material. Use caution when
sawing material from below.
WARNING: Be sure that the saw is up to full speed before blade
contacts material to be cut. Starting the saw with blade against
material to be cut or pushed forward into kerf can result in kickback
and personal injury.
WARNING: ALWAYS secure the workpiece in such a manner
that it cannot move while sawing. For optimum results, clamp the
workpiece bottom up.
WARNING: ALWAYS push the machine forwards. NEVER pull
the machine backwards towards you.
WARNING: ALWAYS use the clamp (Fig. 8, AA) to hold the track
to the workpiece.
