Failure to provide the sawdust fall-through hole will cause sawdust to build up in the motor area, which may result in fire or cause motor damage.

KEEPING THE AREA CLEAN (FIG. D)

1.Sawdust and wood chips that fall from under the saw will accumulate on the floor.

2.Make it a practice to pick up and discard this dust when you have completed cutting.

Always keep your work area clean, uncluttered and well

lit. Do net work on floor surfaces that are slippery from sawdust or wax.
