1.Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2.Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3.Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4.Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
5.Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6.Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7.Use the power tool, accessories and blades etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Biscuit Plate Joiner Safety Warnings
e nanc Maint
1.
DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
2.Disc cutters must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool. Disc cutters running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
3.Always use the guard. The guard protects the operator from broken disc cutter fragments and unintentional contact with the disc cutter.
4.Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
5.Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
6.Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the surface and pull the tool out of your control.
7.When using a handheld power tool, maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands to resist starting torque.
8.Do not depress the spindle lock when starting or during operation.
9.Do not leave the tool unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
10.This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.
11.Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
12.Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbor holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
