24.Allow the saw blade to spin up to full speed before feeding a workpiece into it. When turning off the Masonry Saw, allow the saw blade to spin down and stop on its own. Do not press against the saw blade to stop it.

25.To avoid accidental injury, always wear heavy duty work gloves when changing the Saw Blade.

26.The Saw Blade will become hot while cutting. Allow the Saw Blade to completely cool before handling.

27.Do not force the workpiece into the Saw Blade when cutting. Apply moderate pressure, allowing the Saw Blade to cut without being forced.

28.Turn off the Masonry Saw and allow the Saw Blade to completely stop if the Saw Blade is to be backed out of an uncompleted cut.

29.Never attempt to remove material stuck in the moving parts of the Masonry Saw while it is plugged in and running.

30.Always lock the Table in position before transporting the Masonry Saw.

31.Make sure the scrap masonry to be cut off has sufficient room to move sideways. Failure to do so may result in off-cut binding against the Saw Blade.

32.Always unplug the Masonry Saw from its electrical outlet before changing blades or accessories, or before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

33.WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities, contain chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products, arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures 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 those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
