Causes and Operator Prevention Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the opera tor. When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator.
Page 6
Do not use dull or damaged blade. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and KICKBACK. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause bind- ing and KICKBACK.

Never attempt t o saw w i t h the circular saw held upside down in a vise. This is extremely dangerous and can lead t o serious accidents. Before setting the tool down after completing a cut, be sure that the lower (telescoping) guard has closed and the blade has come t o a complete stop.
