OPERATION POCKET CUTTING See Figure 21, page 17. WARNING: Always adjust bevel setting to zero before making a pocket cut. Attempting a pocket cut at any other setting can result in loss of control of the saw possibly causing serious injury. Adjust the bevel setting to zero. Set the blade to the correct blade depth setting. Swing the lower blade guard up using the lower blade guard handle. NOTE: Always raise the lower blade guard with the handle to avoid serious injury. Hold the lower blade guard by the handle. WARNING: Always cut in a forward direction when pocket cutting. Cutting in the reverse direction could cause the saw to climb up on the workpiece and back toward you. Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Lift the saw from the workpiece. Clear corners out with a hand saw or sabre saw. WARNING: Never tie the lower blade guard in a raised position. Leaving the blade exposed could lead to serious injury. WARNING: Never extend your fingers while holding the lower blade guard handle. Extending your fingers may result in contact with the blade, causing serious injury. Rest the front of the base flat against the workpiece with the rear of the handle raised so the blade does not touch the workpiece. Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed. Guide the saw into the workpiece and make the cut. WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: • lead from lead-based paints, • crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and • arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. 12 - English
