RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY CORRECT ELECTRICAL DEVICES: 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3- pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.

DO NOT MODIFY the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed in this manual or addendums. Blades must be rated for at least 5,500 rpm. Use of accessories that are not listed may cause the risk of personal injury. Instructions for safe use of accessories are included with the accessory.

DOUBLE CHECK ALL SETUPS. Make sure blade is tight and not making contact with saw or workpiece before connecting to power supply.

SECURE THE SAW TO THE LEG STAND OR A WORK- BENCH capable of supporting the load of the saw plus any workpiece. This is necessary to avoid any risk of the saw tipping over.

MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHT- ING to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere with safe operation BEFORE performing any work using the table saw.

ALWAYS TURN OFF SAW before disconnecting it, to avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequently and use to instruct other users. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known 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 and other masonry products, and

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.
