Page 12 OPERA TION ■ When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts. ■ Do not cut warped or wet lumber. ■ Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and keep your body in a balanced position so as to resist the forces of kickback should it occur.
Page 13 OPERA TION TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL: ■ Always support your workpiece near the cut. ■ Support your workpiece so the cut will be on your left. ■ Clamp your workpiece so it will not move during the cut. Place your workpiece with its good side down.
