LOWER BLADE GUARD
WARNING: The lower blade guard is a safety feature which
reduces the risk of serious personal injury. Never use the saw if
the lower guard is missing, damaged, misassembled or not
working properly. Do not rely on the lower blade guard to protect
you under all circumstances. Your safety depends on following
all warnings and precautions as well as proper operation of the
saw. Check lower guard for proper closing before each use as
outlined in Additional Safety Rules for Circular Saws. If the
lower blade guard is missing or not working properly, have the
saw serviced before using. To assure product safety and
reliability, repair, maintenance and adjustment should be
performed by an authorized service center or other qualified
service organization, always using identical replacement
parts.
