Resumen del manual
Kickback could cause you to lose control of your saw. Loss of control can lead to serious injury. KICKBACK IS CAUSED BY: • Incorrect blade depth setting. See Figure 6. • Sawing into knots or nails in workpiece. • Twisting blade while making a cut. • Making a cut with a dull, gummed up, or impropedy set blade. • Incorrectly supporting workpiece. See Figure 7. • Forcing a cut. BLADEEXPOSEDON UNDERSIDEOF WORKPIECE Fig. 5 CAUTION: Never use saw when guard is not operating correctly. Guard should be checked for correct operation before each use. If you drop your saw, check the lower blade guard and bumper for damage at all depth settings before reuse. Note: The guard is operating correctly when it moves freely and readily returns to the closed position. If for any reason your lower blade guard does not close freely, take it to the nearest Sears Repair Center for service before using. WRONG Fig. 7 • Cutting warped or wet lumber. • Tool misuse or incorrect operating procedures. 9 TO LESSENTHECHANCEOFKICKBACK: • Always keep the correct blade depth setting -the correct blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 inch below the material to be cut. See Figure 8. CORRECTBLADEDEPTHSE'mNG = BLADEEXPOSED114in. OR LESS ON UNDERSIDEOF WORKPIECE Fig. 8 • Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before beginning a cut. Never saw into a knot or nail. • Make straight cuts. Always use a straight edge guide when rip cutting. This helps prevent twisting the blade in the cut. • Always use clean, sharp and properly set blades. Never make cuts with dull blades. • To avoid pinching the blade, support the workpiece properly before beginning a cut. The right and wrong ways to support large pieces of work are shown in Figures 7 and 9. • When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts. • Do not cut warped or wet lumber. • Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and keep your body in a balanced position so as to resist the forces of kickback should it occur. When using your saw, always stay alert and exercise control. Do not remove your saw from workpiece while the blade is moving. DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 inch below the material to be cut. More blade depth will increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. TO ADJUST BLADE DEPTH • Unplug your saw. _ WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. • Loosen wing nut. See Figure 10. WINGNUT BASE Fig. 10 ASSEMBLY • Hold base flat against the workpiece and raise or lower saw until the required depth is reached. • Tighten wing nut securely. RIGHT Fig. 9 10 STARTING A CUT Know the right way to use your saw. See Figure 11. TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL: • Always support your workpiece near the cut. • Support your workpiece so the cut will be on your right. • Clamp your workpiece so it will not move during the cut. Place your workpiece with its good side down. Note: The good side is the side on which appearance is important. Before beginning a cut, draw a guideline along the desired line of cut. Then place front edge of base on that part of your workplace that is solidly supported. See Figure 11. Never place your saw on that part of the workplece that will fall off when the cut is made. See Figure 13. RIGHT Fig. 11 _, WARNING: To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper control of your saw. Loss of control of your saw could cause an accident resulting in possible serious injury. Never use your saw as shown in Figure 12. WRONG Fig. 13 Keep the cord away from cutting area. Always place the cord to prevent it from hanging up on the workpiece while making a cut. ,_ DANGER: If the cord hangs up on the workpiece during a cut, release the switch trigger immediately. Unplug your saw and reposition the cord to prevent it from hanging up again, WRONG Fig. 12 ,_ DANGER: Using your saw with a damaged cord could result in serious injury or death. If the cord has been damaged, have it replaced before Never place your hand on the workpiece behind using your saw again. your saw while making a cut. 11 Hold your saw firmly with both hands. See Figure 14. RIGHT Fig. 14 Squeeze the switch trigger to start your saw. Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide your saw into the workpiecs. ,_ WARNING: The blade coming in contact with the workpieca before it reaches full speed could cause your saw to "kickback" towards you resulting in serious injury. When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Forcing causes rough cuts, could shorten the life of your saw and could cause "kickback." REMEMBER: When sawing through work, the lower blade guard does not cover the blade, exposing it on the underside of work. Keep your hands and fingers away from cutting area. Any part of your body coming In contact with the moving blade will result In serious Injury. After you complete your cut release the trigger a...
