Make certain all adjusting screws and the
blade holder are tight before making a

When removing the blade from the tool
avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the
blade or accessory. Accessories may be
hot after prolonged use.
If your tool is equipped with a dust bag,
empty it frequently and after completion of
sawing. Spontaneous combustion, may in
time, result from mixture of oil or water with
dust particles. Be extremely careful of dust
disposal, materials in fine particle form may be
explosive. Do not throw contents on an open
fire.
