Workpiece Support (Fig. L, M)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
support the work properly and hold the saw firmly to
prevent loss ofcontrol.
Figure L shows proper sawing position.Figure M shows an
unsafe condition.Hands should be kept away from cuttingarea.
To avoid kickback, ALWAYS support board or panel NEAR the
cut.DON’T support board or panel away from the cut .
ALWAYS DISCONNECT SAW BEFORE MAKING ANY
ADJUSTMENTS! 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 sawit.
