HOW TO USE THE SAW
DO NOT use your saw if the telescoping guard is not
working. If the telescoping guard binds or is sluggish, return
the saw to your nearest AUTHORIZED PORTER-CABLE
SERVICE STATION or PORTER-CABLE SERVICE
CENTER for repair.
For your maximum protection,
effective control of this powerful
saw requires two-handed opera-
tion. Support the work properly
and hold the saw firmly to prevent
loss of control which could cause
injury. See Fig. 10 for the proper
way to hold the tool.
Keep the cord away from cutting
area to prevent electric shock.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK!
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. Keep your
body to the side of the saw.
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. Support the panels (Fig. 11). Use a fence
or a straight edge guide when ripping. DO NOT force the
tool. DO NOT remove the saw from the workpiece while the
blade is moving.
CROSS-CUTTING
Cutting directly across the grain of a piece of lumber is called crosscutting.
RIPPING
Cutting wood lengthwise is referred to as ripping.
This operation is performed in the same manner
as crosscutting with the exception of supporting
the workpiece. If the workpiece is supported on a
large table, bench, or floor, place several pieces
of scrap stock approximately one inch thick
beneath the workpiece to allow clearance for the
portion of the saw blade that extends through the
material (Fig. 11). When using saw horses, place 2
x 4's lengthwise between the horses and the large
sheets of paneling or thin plywood to prevent the
workpiece from sagging in the center.
