To avoid injury:
® Never pull the cutting head assembly and spinning
blade toward you during the cut. The blade may try
to climb up on the top of the workpiece, causing the
cutting assembly and spinning blade to kick back,
forcefully. The cutting head a^embly should be
drawn back completely then pushed forward when
sawing,
« Let the blade reach full speed before cutting. This
will help reduce the risk of a thrown workpiece.
