FURTHERSAFETYINSTRUCTIONSFORALLSAWS-Kickbackcausesandrelatedwarnings
Causesandoperatorpreventionofkickback:
• 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operator;
• 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;
• 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operatingproceduresorconditionsandcanbeavoidedbytakingproper
precautionsasgivenbelow.
1. Maintainarm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.
2. Whena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actiontoeliminatethecauseofbladebinding.
3. Whenrestartingasawintheworkpiece,centrethesawbladeinthekerfandcheckthatsawteethare
 notengagedinthematerial.Ifthesawbladeisbinding,itmayorkickbackfromtheworkpieceasthesawis
restarted.
4. 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.
5. Donotusedullordamagedblades.Unsharpenedorimproperlysetbladesproducenarrowkerfcausing 
excessivefriction,bladebindingandkickback.
6. Useextracautionwhenmakinga“plungecut”intoexistingwallsorotherblindareas.Theprotrudingblade 
maycutobjectsthatcancausekickback.
7. Whenrestartingacutthathasalreadybeenstartedensureyouareinthemiddleofthekerfandthebladecanspin
freely
8. Alwayssupportbothsidesofthejob,ifthejobbendstowardsthesawunderitsownweightitwilljam.
9. Alwaysknowwhatisbehindtheareayouarecuttingasyoumaycomeincontactwithsomethingontheotherside.
10. Mostimportantly,usecommonsense,ifyoufeelyoushouldn’tbeusingitthewayyouareorifyouareunsureof
whatyouaredoingthendon’tdoit.PleasecalloremailtheSwartsToolssupportteamandwecanclarify.

Ifthespeedistoolowthebladeswillonlypressdownonthematerialratherthancutit.

INSTRUCTION FOR CUTTING
VARIOUS CROSS SECTION MATERIALS

Note: ALWAYS use the lubricating device (included) when cutting Aluminum,
Copper, Stainless Steel & Cast Iron materials, because they have a tendency to
smear and adhere to the blades. But for normal steel plate and steel tube cutting
is no need.
If run out the lubrication sticks, the best way is add Lubricating oil (5W-20
or 5W-40) in the saw blade teeth area. It will help to get smooth cutting
surface and keep the blade teeth sharpening for all kinds of metal cutting.

LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the
life of the tool under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
LUBRICANT INSTRUCTIONS (Fig 1, Fig 2, Fig 3)
The blades are equipped with Dry Cut teeth. As a rule these need not be lubricated. However, in
extreme cutting conditions, cutting paste can be applied.
When cutting Aluminum/Copper/Stainless steel and cast iron, the lubricating device must always
be used. Identify the lubrication unit next to the laser guide as Fig 1.
Position the wax stick on to lubrication unit as in fig 2.
Before always starting a cut lower the Lubrication stick on to saw blade by turning the knob as in
Fig 3. We recommend that you buy Lubrication stick available from your nearest dealer.
IMPORTANT! The lubricating stick is added by turning the Feed wheel.

IMPORTANT
The servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system
and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service, we recommend that
you return the tool to our authorized Service Center for repair.
ALWAYS use original factory replacement parts when servicing.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep the loss at a minimum and
to prevent overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to carry the current that the
tool will draw.

MaintenanceandCleaning
Beforecommencinganyworkonthemachineitself,disconnectthemainsplug.
Forsafeandproperworking,alwayskeepthemachineandventilationslotsclean.
Theretractingbladeguardmustalwaysbeabletomovefreelyandretractautomatically.
Therefore,alwayskeeptheareaaroundtheretractingbladeguardclean.Removedustandchipsbyblowingoutwith
compressedairorwithabrush.
Sawbladesthatarenotcoatedcanbeprotectedagainstcorrosionwithathincoatofacid-freeoil.Beforeuse,theoil
mustberemovedagain;otherwisethewoodwillbecomesoiled.
Resinandglueresidueonthesawbladeproducespoorcuts.Therefore,cleanthesawbladeimmediatelyafteruse.
Ifthemachineshouldfaildespitethecaretakeninmanufacturingandtestingprocedures,repairshouldbecarriedoutby
anauthorisedservicecentre.
