1.Read and understand the entire owner’s manual before attempting assembly or operation.

2.Read and understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.

3.Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or removed.

4.This table saw is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a table saw, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.

5.Do not use this table saw for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, WMH Tool Group, Inc. disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result from that use.

6.Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this table saw. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.

7.Before operating this table saw, remove tie, rings, watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up past the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Non-slip footwear or anti-skid floor strips are recommended. Do not wear gloves.

8.Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.

9.Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead based paint.

Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.

Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.

10.Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

11.Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.

12.Make certain the machine is properly grounded.

13.Maintain a balanced stance and keep your body under control at all times. Do not stand in line with the saw blade or workpiece, and do not allow anyone else to do so.

14.Do not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation. Use a support table or have a helper or “tailman” take stock away from the back side of the blade.

15.Check the alignment of the splitter, fence and miter slot to the blade. A caution decal is installed on the guard and splitter assembly to remind the operator of the dangers of misalignment.

16.Maintain tools in top condition. Check the saw blade for cracks or missing teeth. Do not use a cracked or dull blade or one with missing teeth or improper set. Make sure the blade is securely locked on the arbor.

17.Keep hands clear of the blade area. Do not reach past the blade to clear parts or scrap with the saw blade running. Never saw free hand. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to contact the blade.

18.Always use the splitter, blade guard, push stick and other safety devices for all operations where they can be used. On operations such as dadoing or molding where the blade guard cannot be used, use feather boards, fixtures, and other safety devices and use extreme caution. Re-install the splitter and blade guard immediately after completing the operation that required their removal.
