SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

nNEVER hand hold a workpiece that is too small to be clamped. Keep hands clear of the cutting area.

nNEVER reach behind, under, or within three inches of the blade and its cutting path with hands and fingers for any reason.

nNEVER reach to pick up a workpiece, a piece of scrap, or anything else that is in or near the cutting path of the blade.

nAVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the blade. ALWAYS make sure you have good balance. NEVER operate the miter saw on the floor or in a crouched position.

nNEVER stand or have any part of the body in line with the path of the saw blade.

nALWAYS release the power switch and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising it out of the workpiece.

nDO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFF RAPIDLY. This could cause the saw blade to loosen and could create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow the saw blade to come to a complete stop. Disconnect your saw from the power supply and securely retighten the blade bolt.

nIF ANY PART OF THIS MITER SAW IS MISSING or should break, bend, or fail in any way, or should any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off the power switch, remove the miter saw plug from the power source and have damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced before resuming operation.

nALWAYS STAY ALERT! Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of the saw) to cause a careless mistake. ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless frac- tion of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

nUSE THIS SAW TO CUT WOOD, WOOD PRODUCTS, AND SOME PLASTICS ONLY. DO NOT CUT METALS, CERAMICS OR MASONRY PRODUCTS

nIF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED, it must be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an authorized service center to avoid risk.

nMAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHTING to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere with safe operation BEFORE performing any work using the saw.

nALWAYS TURN OFF THE SAW before disconnecting it to avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply. NEVER leave the saw unattended while connected to a power source.
