GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is un-
avoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed
in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 987000-432.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or ener-
gizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air vents.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,

TRACK SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
have the power tool repaired before use. Many ac-
cidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, ad-
ditionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or exces-
sive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
265° F may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-
tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
CUTTING PROCEDURES
DANGER:
Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade.
Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they can-
not be cut by the blade.
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard
cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should
be visible below the workpiece.
Never hold the workpiece in your hands or across your
leg while cutting. Secure the workpiece to a stable
platform. It is important to support the work properly to
minimise body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire
will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge
guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces
the chance of blade binding.
Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that
do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run
off-centre, causing loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or
bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed
for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of
operation.

KICKBACK CAUSES AND RELATED
WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, jammed or
misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift
up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;
When the blade is pinched or jammed tightly by the kerf
closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction
drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator;
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut,
the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the
top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out
of the kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operat-
ing procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and
position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position
your body to either side of the blade, but not in line
with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump
backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the
operator, if proper precautions are taken.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut
for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw
motionless in the material until the blade comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from
the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is
in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the
saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are not
engaged into the material. If a saw blade binds, it may
walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is
restarted.
Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade
pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under
their own weight. Supports must be placed under the
panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the
edge of the panel.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or
improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing ex-
cessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must
be tight and secure before making the cut. If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and
kickback.
Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or
other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects
that can cause kickback.
GUARD FUNCTION
Check the guard for proper closing before each use.
Do not operate the saw if the guard does not move
freely and enclose the blade instantly. Never clamp or
tie the guard so that the blade is exposed. If the saw
is accidentally dropped, the guard may be bent. Check
to make sure that the guard moves freely and does not
touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths
of cut.
Check the operation and condition of the guard return
spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use. The guard
may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
Assure that the base plate of the saw will not shift while
performing a “plunge cut”. Blade shifting sideways will
cause binding and likely kick back.
Always observe that the guard is covering the blade
before placing the saw down on bench or floor. An
unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk
backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of
the time it takes for the blade to stop after the switch is
released.
Do not use abrasive wheels with this saw.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
RIVING KNIFE FUNCTION
Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife. For
the riving knife to function, the body of the blade must
be thinner than the riving knife and the cutting width of
the blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving
knife.
Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction
manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can
make the riving knife ineffective in preventing kickback.
Always use the riving knife, except when plunge
cutting. The riving knife must be replaced after plunge
cutting. The riving knife causes interference during plunge
cutting and can create kickback.
For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged in the
workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective in preventing
kickback during short cuts.
Do not operate the saw if the riving knife is bent. Even
a light interference can slow the closing rate of a guard.
Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.
For the riving knife to function properly, the body of the
saw blade must be thicker than 1.0 mm and the cutting
width of the saw blade must be wider than 1.4 mm.

ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLING TRACKS
See Figures 6 - 7, page 19.
Tracks can be used individually or assembled together to
fit the size of your project. Before use, all tracks should be
assembled and properly aligned, and the rubber cut strip
should be cut.
To assemble tracks:
Place the tracks upside down on a flat, level work space.
NOTE: Two tracks are provided with the saw. One has a
connector preinstalled and the other does not.
Using the track wrench, loosen the screws securing the
connector to the track.
NOTE: Two wrenches are included with the saw, a small
one for the track and a large one for the blade.
Align the tracks and slide the connector across the joint
and into the slot of the next track. Place the connector
approximately half way into each track and tighten the
screws to secure one side.
NOTE: The tracks are machined to fit together tightly
along the ends. However, before tightening the remaining
screws, place a 12 in. or longer straight edge, carpenter’s
square or level along the long edges to make sure the
pieces are perfectly aligned. Skipping this step could
compromise the accuracy of the saw’s performance.
Align the long ends of both tracks against the straight
edge, carpenter’s square or level. Holding both pieces
together, tighten the remaining screws to secure the con-
nector.
NOTE: After tightening the screws, check again with the
straight edge to ensure the tracks are perfectly aligned.

KICKBACK
See Figures 9 - 13, pages 19 - 20.
Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and the saw
is driven back towards you. Blade stalling is caused by any
action which pinches the blade in the wood.
DANGER:
Release switch immediately if blade binds or saw stalls.
Kickback could cause you to lose control of the saw. Loss
of control can lead to serious injury.
To guard against kickback, avoid dangerous practices
such as the following:
Setting blade depth incorrectly.
Sawing into knots or nails in workpiece.
Twisting the blade while making a cut.
Making a cut with a dull, gummed up, or improperly set
blade.
Supporting the workpiece incorrectly.
Forcing a cut.
Cutting warped or wet lumber.
Operating the tool incorrectly or misusing the tool.
Rapidly plunging the blade into the workpiece.
To lessen the chance of kickback, follow these safety
practices:
Keep the blade at the correct depth setting. The depth
setting should not exceed 1/4 in. below the material being
cut.
Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before cutting.
Never saw into a knot or nail.
Make straight cuts. Always use a straight edge guide
when rip cutting. This helps prevent twisting the blade.
Use clean, sharp, and properly set blades. Never make
cuts with dull blades.
Support the workpiece properly before beginning a cut.
Use steady, even pressure when making a cut. Never
force a cut.
Do not cut warped or wet lumber.
Hold the saw firmly with both hands and keep your body
in a balanced position so as to resist the forces if kickback
should occur.
When performing pocket cuts, allow the blade to reach
full speed then apply slow, even downward pressure to
guide the blade into the workpiece.
WARNING:
When using the saw, always stay alert and exercise con-
trol. Do not remove the saw from the workpiece while the
blade is moving.
OPERATION
PLUNGE DEPTH CONTROL LEVER
See Figures 14 - 15, page 20.
The saw is equipped with a plunge depth control lever that
limits the downward movement of the saw for different opera-
tions. The lever has three settings. One for changing the blade,
one for scoring material, and one for making plunge cuts.
Blade change position
Placing the lever in this position will allow you to lock the saw
in a lowered position with the blade screw visible through
the window in the guard.
Scoring position:
With the lever in the scoring position, the downward travel
of the blade is limited to approximately 1/4 in. depth of
cut. Perform a cut with the blade at this depth to score the
workpiece.
NOTE: The riving knife must be removed for this cut.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of splintering, always make a
score cut before cutting through laminated or veneer faced
plywood or composite materials.
Plunge cut position:
Move the lever to the plunge cut position to make deep cuts
and through cuts. When the lever is in this position, the blade
can be lowered to the full depth of cut.
NOTE: When the lever is in the plunge cut position, use the
depth lock knob to control blade depth. The correct blade
depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. below
the material being cut.
ATTACHING THE SAW TO A VACUUM
See Figure 16, page 20.
When cutting for an extended period of time, you can easily
attach a vacuum hose to the dust exhaust port of the saw.
Remove the battery.
Attach the vacuum hose to the dust exhaust port on the
saw.
NOTE: The vacuum hose will fit inside or outside the dust
exhaust port. The saw will accept a standard 1-7/8 in.

LOWERING AND RAISING THE BLADE AND
RIVING KNIFE
See Figure 16, page 20.
To lower the blade:
Depress the lock-off button.
Grasp the front handle and apply downward pressure to
lower and expose the blade and riving knife (if installed).
NOTE: Maintain downward pressure to keep the blade
in a lowered position.
10 - English
OPERATION
To raise the cutting blade:
Slowly allow the front handle to rise until the blade and
riving knife (if installed) are completely inside of the guard
and the saw is in the locked position.
USING THE DEPTH LOCK KNOB
See Figure 17, page 21.
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct blade
depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. below
the material being cut. More blade depth will increase the
chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. For more
depth of cut accuracy, a scale is located on the guard.
Remove the battery pack.
Loosen the depth lock knob.
Determine the desired depth of cut.
Move the depth lock knob up or down to align the depth
of cut indicator with the desired depth setting.
Tighten the depth lock knob.
SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they are not
kept clean, sharp, and properly set. Using a dull blade will
place a heavy load on the saw and increase the danger of
kickback. Keep extra blades on hand, so that sharp blades
are always available.
Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades will slow the
saw down. Remove saw blade from the saw and use gum
and pitch remover, hot water, or kerosene to remove these
accumulations. DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
STARTING/STOPPING THE SAW
See Figure 18, page 21.
WARNING:
Always check that the spindle lock button is fully released
before switching on the tool.
To start the saw:
Install the battery pack.
Depress the lock-off button.
Depress the switch trigger.
Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw
into the workpiece.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before
it reaches full speed or plunging the saw too quickly into
the workpiece could cause the saw to “kickback” towards
you resulting in serious injury. Maintain a firm grip with
both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist
kickback forces.
To stop the saw: release the switch trigger.
After you release the switch trigger, allow the blade to come
to a complete stop. Slowly allow the front handle to rise until
the blade is completely inside of the guard and the saw is
in the locked position. Do not remove the saw from the
workpiece while the blade is moving.
LOCK-OFF BUTTON
See Figure 18, page 21.
The lock-off button reduces the possibility of accidental
starting. The lock-off button is located on the handle above
the switch trigger. The lock-off button must be depressed
before you pull the switch trigger. The lock resets each time
the trigger is released.
When the saw is raised to its uppermost position it will be
locked in that position. Depress the lock-off button to unlock
the saw.
USING THE TRACK
See Figures 19 - 26, pages 21 and 22.
The saw can be used with or without a track. To use the saw
with a track, secure the track to a workpiece then attach the
saw to the track. If you are using multiple tracks, assemble
and secure the tracks together as described in the Assembly
section.
WARNING:
When cutting along multiple tracks, always ensure the
tracks are properly aligned and assembled. Cutting along
incorrectly assembled or misaligned tracks could cause
the saw to move in unexpected ways which may result
in serious injuries or property damage.
To trim the rubber cut strip on the tracks:
Remove the battery pack and riving knife from the saw.
NOTE: Always remove the riving knife when making non-
through cuts and pocket cuts.
Place scrap material onto a workbench, table or other
suitable support. The material should be as long or longer
than the tracks being prepared for use.
NOTE: Each track is 27.5 inches long.
Place the track on the scrap material.
Use the track clamp to secure the track and scrap mate-
rial to the support.
Hold the saw above the track with the blade facing the
rubber cut strip.
Align the slot in the saw’s base with the raised tab on the
track. Then, lower the saw onto the track.
Check for play at the front and back of the saw and ensure
the saw glides along the track smoothly.
If necessary, loosen the lock knobs securing the track
adjustment tabs. Rotate the tabs until all play (left and
11 - English
right) is eliminated and the saw moves freely (forward and
back). Tighten the lock knobs.
Place the plunge depth control lever in the scoring posi-
tion.
Reinstall the battery pack.
Slide the saw to the starting end track and ensure the
blade is positioned to cut all the rubber.
Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed.
Carefully lower the blade until it contacts the workpiece.
Guide the saw in a forward direction along the track to
trim the rubber cut strip.
NOTE: After the rubber cut strip is trimmed, it can be
used to accurately indicate the blade cut line.

OPERATION
OPERATING THE SAW
See Figures 27 - 29, page 22.
It is important to understand the correct method for operat-
ing the saw. Refer to the figures in this section to learn the
correct and incorrect ways for handling the saw.
WARNING:
To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper
control of the saw by holding the saw firmly with both
hands. Loss of control could cause an accident resulting
in possible serious injury.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints.
Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making
a cut.
Support the workpiece so that the cut (kerf) is always to
your side.
Support the workpiece near the cut.
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure the workpiece
so that the workpiece will not move during the cut.
Always place the saw and the track on the workpiece
that is supported, not the “cut off” piece.
If possible, place the workpiece with the “good” side
down.
To reduce the risk of splintering, always make a score cut
before cutting through laminated or veneer faced plywood
or composite materials.
When cutting without a track, draw a guideline along the
desired line of cut before beginning your cut.
When cutting along a track, use the rubber cut strip to
indicate the blade cut line.
When cutting along a track, apply downward pressure
and gently move the saw forward. Don’t force the saw
and NEVER pull the saw toward you when the saw is

lame. Garder la deuxième main sur la poignée auxiliaire
ou le boîtier du moteur. Lorsque les mains sont utilisées
pour tenir la scie, elle ne risquent pas d’être coupées
par la lame.
Ne pas passer les mains au-dessous de la pièce à
travailler à couper. La garde de lame n’offre aucune
protection au-dessous de la pièce à couper.
Ajuster la profondeur de coupe en fonction de l’épaisseur
de la pièce à travailler. Sous la pièce à travailler, on devrait
pouvoir distinguer moins d’une dent entière parmi celles de
la lame.
Ne jamais tenir une pièce en train d’être coupée à la
main ou posée sur la jambe. Immobiliser la pièce à
travailler sur une surface stable. Il est essentiel de soutenir
correctement la pièce à couper pour éviter les risques de
coupure, de blocage de la lame et de perte du contrôle.
Tenir l’outil par ses surfaces de préhension isolées lors
des opérations pendant lesquelles l’accessoire de coupe
peut entrer en contact avec du câblage caché.
Le contact
avec un fil sous tension « électrifie » les pièces métalliques
exposées de l’outil, ce qui peut électrocuter l’utilisateur.
Pour la refente, toujours utiliser un guide longitudinal ou
une règle. Ceci accroît la précision de la coupe et réduit le
risque de blocage de la lame.
Toujours utiliser des lames dont l’alésage central est de
dimension et de forme adéquates (ruban à tranchant au
diamant ou lame ronde). Une lame incompatible avec la
quincaillerie de montage de la scie tournerait en faux rond,
causant la perte du contrôle.
Ne jamais utiliser de rondelles ou boulon de lame
incorrects ou endommagés. Les rondelles et boulon de
lame fournis sont conçus spécialement pour assurer une
efficacité et une sécurité maximum.
Entretenir les outils motorisés. Vérifier qu’aucune pièce
mobile n’est mal alignée ou bloquée, qu’aucune pièce
n’est brisée et s’assurer qu’aucun autre problème ne
risque d’affecter le bon fonctionnement de l’outil. En cas
de dommages faire réparer l’outil avant de l’utiliser de
nouveau. Beaucoup d’accidents sont causés par des outils
mal entretenus.
Garder les outils bien affûtés et propres. Des outils
correctement entretenus et dont les tranchants sont bien
affûtés risquent moins de se bloquer et sont plus faciles à
contrôler.
Utiliser l’outil, les accessoires et embouts, etc.
conformément à ces instrutions pour les applications
pour lesquelles ils sont conçus, en tenant compte des
conditions et du type de travail à exécuter. L’usage d’un
outil motorisé pour des applications pour lesquelles il n’est
pas conçu peut être dangereux.
Gardez les poignées et les surfaces de prise sèches,
propres et exemptes d’huile et de graisse. Des poignées et
des surfaces de prise glissantes empêchent la manipulation
et le contrôle sécuritaires de l’outil dans des circonstances
imprévues.
UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE LA PILE
Ne recharger qu’avec l’appareil spécifié par le fabricant.
Un chargeur approprié pour un type de pile peut créer un
risque d’incendie s’il est utilisé avec un autre type de pile.
Utiliser exclusivement le bloc-pile spécifiquement indiqué
pour l’outil. L’usage de tout autre bloc peut créer un risque
de blessures et d’incendie.
Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas en usage, le garder à
l’écart d’articles tels qu’attaches trombones, pièces de
monnaie, clous, vis ou autres petits objets métalliques
risquant d’établir le contact entre les deux bornes. La
mise en court-circuit des bornes de piles peut causer des
étincelles, des brûlures ou un incendie.
En cas d’usage abusif, du liquide peut s’échapper des
piles. Éviter tout contact avec ce liquide. En cas de
contact accidentel, rincer immédiatement les parties
atteintes avec de l’eau. En cas d’éclaboussure dans les
yeux consulter un médecin. Le liquide s’échappant des
piles peut causer des irritations ou des brûlures.
Ne pas utiliser un bloc-piles ou un outil endommagé ou
modifié. Les piles endommagées ou modifiées peuvent
produire un comportement imprévisible pouvant provoquer
un incendie, une explosion ou des blessures.
Ne pas exposer le bloc-piles ou l’outil près d’un incendie
ou à une température extrême. L’exposition à un incendie
ou à une température supérieure à 130 °C (265 °F) représente
un risque d’explosion.
Suivre toutes les instructions afférentes à la recharge
et ne pas recharger le bloc-piles ou l’outil hors des
températures spécifiées dans les instructions. Une
recharge incorrecte ou hors des températures spécifiées
peut endommager la pile et augmenter les risques de feu.
DÉPANNAGE
Les réparations doivent être confiées à un technicien
qualifié, utilisant exclusivement des pièces identiques à
celles d’origine. Ceci assurera le maintien de la sécurité de
l’outil.
Ne réparez jamais de blocs-piles endommagés. Seuls
le fabricant et les fournisseurs de service autorisés doivent
effectuer la réparation ou l’entretien des blocs-piles.

AVERTISSEMENTS DE SÉCURITÉ
RELATIFS AU SCIE À RAIL

CAUSES DES EFFETS DE REBOND ET
AUTRES AVERTISSEMENTS
Le rebond est une réaction soudaine, causée par une lame
coincée, bloquée ou mal alignée et projetant la scie hors de
la pièce coupée vers le haut, en direction de l’opérateur;
Lorsque la lame est pincée ou bloquée par la fermeture du
trait de coupe, elle se bloque et la force du moteur projette
la scie en direction de l’opérateur;
Si la lame dévie dans le trait de coupe, les dents de l’arrière
risquent de mordre la surface de la planche, causant la
projection de la lame hors du bois, en direction de l’opérateur.
Une mauvaise utilisation de la scie peut entraîner un rebond et/
ou des méthodes de travail incorrectes et il peut être évité en
prenant les précautions suivantes :
Tenir fermement la scie avec les deux mains et positionner
les bras de manière à pouvoir résister aux rebonds. Se
tenir d’un côté de lame, et non dans la trajectoire de
celle-ci. Le rebond peut causer un recul brutal de la scie,
mais s’il prend les précautions nécessaires, l’utilisateur peut
contrôler la force du rebond.
Si la lame se bloque ou si la coupe est interrompue pour
une raison quelconque, relâcher la gâchette et maintenir
la lame dans le trait de coupe jusqu’à ce qu’elle ait
complètement cessé de tourner. Pour éviter un rebond,
ne jamais essayer de retirer la scie de la pièce ou de
la tirer en arrière pendant que la lame est en rotation.
Déterminer et éliminer la cause du blocage de la lame.
Avant de remettre la scie en marche en cours de coupe,
centrer la lame dans le trait de scie et s’assurer que les
dents ne mordent pas dans le bois. Si la lame est bloquée,
elle peut causer un rebond et l’éjection du trait de coupe
lorsque la scie est remise en marche.
Soutenir les planches longues afin d’éviter les risques
de pincement de la lame et de rebond. Les planches de
grande taille ont tendance à ployer sous leur propre poids.
Des supports doivent être placés sous la planche, de chaque
côté, près du trait de coupe et du bord de la planche.
Ne pas utiliser de lames émoussées ou endommagées.
Une lames émoussée ou incorrectement réglée produit un
trait de scie étroit, causant le pincement de la lame et le
rebond.
Les leviers de réglage de profondeur et d’angle de coupe
doivent être fermement serrés et assujettis avant de
commencer la coupe. Si la lame se dérègle en cours de
coupe, elle peut se bloquer et causer un rebond.
Soyez particulièrement prudent lors du sciage dans des
murs existants ou dans d’autres endroits obscures. La
lame peut heurter des objets ou matériaux causant un rebond.
FONCTION DE GARDE
Avant chaque utilisation, s’assurer que la garde inférieure
se ferme correctement avant chaque utilisation. Ne pas
utiliser la scie si la garde ne fonctionne pas librement
ou ne se ferme pas instantanément. Ne jamais bloquer
la garde inférieure en position ouverte. En cas de chute
accidentelle de la scie, la garde inférieure peut se déformer.
Relever la garde inférieure avec la poignée de rétraction et
vérifier qu’elle fonctionne librement et ne touche ni la lame, ni
aucune autre pièce, quelle que soit l’angle ou la profondeur
de coupe.
Vérifier le fonctionnement du ressort de la garde
inférieure. Tout problème de fonctionnement de la garde
et du ressort doit être corrigé avant d’utiliser la scie.
Des pièces endommagées, des résidus gommeux et les
accumulations de débris peuvent ralentir le fonctionnement
de la garde inférieure.
S’assurer que la semelle de la base de la scie ne se
déplacera pas lors d’une «coupe en plongée». Le
déplacement latéral de la lame provoquera un coincement
et un rebond probable.
Toujours s’assurer que la garde couvre la lame avant de
poser la scie sur le sol ou un établi. Une lame non protégée
tournant au débrayé causerait un mouvement en arrière de
la scie, qui couperait tout ce qui se trouve sur son passage.
Tenir compte du temps nécessaire à l’arrêt complet de la
lame une fois que la gâchette est relâchée.
Ne jamais utiliser aucune sorte de meules abrasives avec
cette scie.
Utiliser des serre-joint ou un autre système approprié
pour maintenir fermement la pièce sur une surface stable.
Une pièce tenue à la main ou contre son corps est instable
et peut causer une perte de contrôle.
FONCTION DE COUTEAU DIVISEUR
Utiliser la bonne lame pour le couteau diviseur. Pour faire
fonctionner le couteau diviseur, le corps de la lame doit être
plus mince que le couteau diviseur et la largeur tranchante
de la lame doit être plus large que l’épaisseur du couteau
diviseur.
Ajuster le couteau diviseur conformément aux
instructions du présent manuel. Un mauvais espacement,
positionnement ou alignement peut rendre le couteau diviseur
inefficace en empêchant le rebond.
Toujours utiliser le couteau diviseur, sauf pour une coupe
en plongée. Le couteau diviseur doit être remplacé après
une coupe en plongée. Le couteau diviseur cause des
interférences pendant la coupe en plongée et peut créer du
rebond.
Pour que le couteau diviseur fonctionne, il doit être
engagé dans la pièce à travailler. Le couteau diviseur est
inefficace à prévenir le rebond pendant les coupes courtes.
Ne pas utiliser la scie si le couteau diviseur est tordu.
Même une interférence légère peut ralentir le taux de fermeture
d’un protège-lame.
Utiliser la bonne lame pour le couteau diviseur. Pour faire
fonctionner correctement le couteau diviseur, le corps de la
lame doit être plus épais que 1,00 mm et la largeur tranchante
de la lame de scie doit être plus large que 1,40 mm.
