USING THE TOOL (Continued from page 1)
•Make sure that sparks, if emitted, are directed so as not to cause a hazard.
•Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
•Keep work area well lit.
•Keep children away. Do not let visitors touch the tool.
•Store idle tools. When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, high or locked place, out of reach of children.
•Use the right tool. Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of a heavy duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes not intended.
•Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold the work.
•Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before using.
•Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.
SAW SPECIFIC WARNINGS
•Do not use a Saw without the proper guards.
•Do not use a blade for which the recommended speed is lower than the actual free speed of the Saw.
•Moveable guards must not be locked in the open position. Ensure that moveable guards operate freely without jamming and that the retraction mechanism operates freely.
•Do not use a blade larger than 12” outside diameter with a Model S120 Saw.
•Before mounting a blade, after all tool repairs and whenever a Saw is issued for use, check the free speed of the Saw with a tachometer to make certain its actual speed at 90 psig (6.2 bar/620 kPa) does not exceed the rated free speed stamped on the nameplate by more than 500 rpm.
•Inspect all blades for chips or cracks prior to mounting. Do not use a blade that is chipped or cracked or otherwise damaged.
•Before mounting or removing a blade, disconnect the Saw from the air supply line, or shut off the air supply and drain the hose.
•Make certain the blade properly fits the arbor. The blade should not fit too snugly or too loosely. Do not use reducing bushings to adapt a blade to any arbor unless such bushings are supplied by and recommended by the blade manufacturer.
•Always wear protective eyewear or a face shield when operating a Saw. Also, use a face mask or dust mask if the cutting operation produces an excessive amount of dust. Use local exhaust venting if needed.
•Always replace a damaged, bent or severely worn guard.
•Always use clean, sharp blades. A dull blade and/or a blade with a buildup of gum and hardened pitch will not cut efficiently. Clean the blade with either mineral spirits or warm soap and water and dry thoroughly.
•Use the proper style blade for the application.
•Do not carry a Saw with the motor running.
