If the blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN SWITCH
OFF before attempting to free the blade.
Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the work piece
through the cut … to support long or heavy workpieces … to
remove small cut-off pieces of material or FOR ANY
OTHER REASON.
Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the
table. REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table with a
long stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by
the front of the blade.
Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may
become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw is
RUNNING. THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or
cause a KICKBACK. Turn the saw OFF. After the blade has
stopped turning, lift the guard and remove the piece.
If workpiece is warped, place the CONCAVE side DOWN.
This will prevent it from rocking while it is being ripped.
