12.Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolts. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation.

13.Always wear safety impact eye goggles when using theTwin Cutter

Saw. Always wear heavy duty work gloves when changing Saw Blades. Using personal safety devices reduces the risk for injury. A leather apron and arm protection may be advisable to protect from sparks created when cutting metal.

Always keep work area free of obstruc- tions, grease, oil, trash, and other debris. Do not use a power tool in areas near flammable chemicals, dusts, and vapors. Do not use in a damp or wet location.

15.Avoid unintentional starting. Make sure you are prepared to begin work before turning on the Twin Cutter Saw.

19.Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.

20.When cutting a large workpiece, make sure its entire length is properly sup- ported. If necessary, use a roller stand (not included).

21.To avoid electrical shock, do not handle theTwin Cutter Saw or its Power Cord Plug with wet hands.

22.Make sure the workpiece is free from nails and any other foreign objects which can damage the Saw Blades.

23.Always check to make sure there are no electrical wires or cables in the cut- ting path of the Twin Cutter Saw.
