SERVICE

1.Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

2.When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instruc- tions in the “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY General RULES AND PRECAUTIONS

1.Maintain labels and nameplates on the Cut Off Saw. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replace- ment.

2.Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.

3.Never stand on the Cut Off Saw. Serious injury could result if the Saw is tipped.

4.Never leave the Cut Off Saw unattended when it is running. Turn off the Saw before leaving.

5.Do not allow children and other unauthorized people to handle or play with the Cut Off Saw. Keep children and other bystanders away from the working area.

6.This Cut Off Saw is designed for outdoor use only. Do not operate the Cut Off Saw in a closed area or in a poorly ventilated area. When running, the En- gine of this Cut Off Saw produces carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, toxic fume that, when inhaled, can cause serious personal injury or death. Whenever possible, use a carbon monoxide detector (not included) to detect excessive carbon monoxide fumes in the work area and in the surrounding area.

7.Do not force the Cut Off Saw. This tool will do the work better and safer at the speed and capacity for which it was designed.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION PRECAUTIONS

1.Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable, and potentially explosive. Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures. Always have multiple ABC class fire extinguishers nearby.

2.Keep the Cut Off Saw and surrounding areas clean at all times.

3.When spills of fuel or oil occur, they must be cleaned up immediately. Dis- pose of fluids and cleaning materials as per any local, state, or federal codes and regulations. Store oil rags in a covered metal container.
