5. The lack of warning and high risk of injury from kickback makes it extremely important to 1 reduce the risk of kickback and 2 protect your self in case it does occur Preventing Kickback Take these precautions to help prevent the most common causes of kickback e Hold the saw firmly with both hands and position arms to help resist kickback forces Always stand to one side of the saw when operating never directly behind it When kickback does occur it will eject the saw back toward the operator e Ensure the workpiece remains level and immobile throughout your cut Do not cut warped cupped or twisted workpieces Minimize the chances of the workpiece rock ing rotating or shifting which could bind the blade and allow kickback to occur Clamp workpiece in place if necessary Support large panels making sure supports are positioned under both sides of the cutting line Model T10687 Mfg Since 10 12 9 e Allow blade to reach full speed before starting the cut e help prevent the blade from binding in the workpiece 1 keep cuts straight 2 main tain a consistent depth and angle throughout cut 3 provide proper workpiece support on both sides of the cut see Figures 1 2 Workpiece K Support Figure 1 Cutting with proper workpiece support Figure 2 Cutting with improper support e Follow cuts through to completion whenever p
