Kickback could cause you to lose control of the saw. Loss
of control can lead to serious injury.

as the following:
Setting blade depth incorrectly
Sawing into knots or nails in workpiece
Twisting the blade while making a cut
Making a cut with a dull, gummed up, or improperly set
blade
Supporting the workpiece incorrectly
Forcing a cut
Cutting warped or wet lumber
Operating the tool incorrectly or misusing the tool
