B.Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels.

11.USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS SAW.

12.Cross-cutting operations are more conveniently worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is attached to the miter gaugeusing the holes provided.

13.Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates

toward you when standing in normal operating position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting tool as low as possible for the operation being performed. Keep all guards in place whenever possible.

14.Do not useany blade or other cutting tool marked for an operating speed less than 3450 RPM. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since under these conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.

15, Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER operate the saw unlessthe proper insert is installed.

16.THINK SAFETY.

Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the saw is being used.

17.NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in

severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles complying with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on Package) before commencing power tool operation. Safety Goggles are available at Sears retail or catalog stores.
