versa is very dangerous.
• Do not reach behind the fence with either
hand closer than 100 mm from either side
of the saw blade, to remove wood scraps,
or for any other reason while the blade is
spinning. The proximity of the spinning saw
blade to your hand may not be obvious and you
may be seriously injured.
• Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If
the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp
it with the outside bowed face toward the
fence. Always make certain that there
is no gap between the workpiece, fence
and table along the line of the cut. Bent or
warped workpieces can twist or shift and may
cause binding on the spinning saw blade while
cutting. There should be no nails or foreign
objects in the workpiece.
• Do not use the saw until the table is clear
of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for
the workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces
of wood or other objects that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
• Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked
multiple workpieces cannot be adequately
clamped or braced and may bind on the blade
or shift during cutting.
• Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed
on a level, firm work surface before use. A
level and firm work surface reduces the risk of
the mitre saw becoming unstable.
• Plan your work. Every time you change the
bevel or mitre angle setting, make sure the
adjustable fence is set correctly to support
the workpiece and will not interfere with
the blade or the guarding system. Without
turning the tool "ON" and with no workpiece
on the table, move the saw blade through a
complete simulated cut to assure there will be
no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
• Provide adequate support such as table
extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece
that is wider or longer than the table top.
Workpieces longer or wider than the mitre saw
table can tip if not securely supported. If the
cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the
lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
• Do not use another person as a substitute
for a table extension or as additional
support. Unstable support for the workpiece
can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece
to shift during the cutting operation pulling you
and the helper into the spinning blade.
• The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops,
the cut-off piece could get wedged against the
blade and thrown violently.
• Always use a clamp or a fixture designed
to properly support round material such as
rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll
while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and
pull the work with your hand into the blade.
• Let the blade reach full speed before
contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the
risk of the workpiece being thrown.
• If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug
from the power source and/or remove the
battery pack. Then work to free the jammed
material. Continued sawing with a jammed
workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
• After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for the
blade to stop before removing the cut-off
piece. Reaching with your hand near the
coasting blade is dangerous.
• Hold the handle firmly when making an
incomplete cut or when releasing the switch
before the saw head is completely in the
down position. The braking action of the saw
may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
downward, causing a risk of injury.
• Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures
are particularly hazardous. Light metal dust
may catch fire or explode.
• Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged
saw blades. Unsharpened or improperly set
saw blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and
kickback.
• Do not use saw blades made from high speed
steel (HSS). Such saw blades can easily break.
• Always use saw blades with correct size
and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour
holes. Saw blades that do not match the
mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre,
causing loss of control.
• Do not replace the integrated laser with
a laser of another type. A laser that is not
