During operation
11. Do not use the Tipped Saw for any purpose other
than cutting. Do not subject the blades to damage
or stress. It can break the blades resulting in seri-
ous personal injury.
12. Hold the material firmly, in a vice or similar, so
that it cannot move when cutting. If the material
moves, the operation becomes unstable and
cannot be controlled, resulting in damage to the
blades and possible serious personal injury.
13. Start cutting only after the Tipped Saw has
reached maximum speed. If the Tipped Saw is set
against the material before the motor is started,
the blades will be overloaded and damaged,
resulting in possible serious personal injury.
14. Do not cut in zigzags, curves, diagonals, or use
the side of the blade to prise or for any other
purpose.
15. If during cutting, there is an abnormal sound,
abnormal vibration, or if the cutting parts are badly
worn, stop operation.
Continuing the operation under such conditions
will damage the Tipped Saw blades with the result
that chips may be ejected causing serious per
-
sonal injury.
16. Continuous operation makes the Tipped Saw
blades hot and reduces the cutting performances.
Maintenance
17. If there is deformation, a crack or damage on the
Tipped Saw, stop the operation. Continuing the
operation under such conditions will further dam-
age the Tipped Saw which may break up. Ejected
broken parts can cause serious personal injury.
18. Only keep and use Tipped Saws that are in good
condition and the blades sharp and clean.
WARNING:
Always wear protective equip
-
ment; safety glasses, safety shoes, dust mask
and helmet.
WARNING:
Use only Makita supplied Tipped
Saw. Using non Makita parts may damage the tool
and can result in serious accident or injury.
