with the outside bowed face toward the
fence. Always make certain that there
is no gap between the workpiece, fence
and table along the line of the cut. Bent
or warped workpieces can twist or shift and
may cause binding on the spinning saw blade
while cutting. There should be no nails or
foreign objects in the workpiece.
Do not use the saw until the table is clear
of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except
for the workpiece. Small debris or loose
pieces of wood or other objects that contact
the revolving blade can be thrown with high
speed.
Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked
multiple workpieces cannot be adequately
clamped or braced and may bind on the
blade or shift during cutting.
Ensure the miter saw is mounted or
placed on a level, firm work surface before
use. A level and firm work surface reduces
the risk of the miter saw becoming unstable.
Plan your work. Every time you change
the bevel or mitre angle setting, make
sure the adjustable fence is set correctly
to support the workpiece and will not
interfere with the blade or the guarding
system. Without turning the tool "ON" and
with no workpiece on the table, move the saw
blade through a complete simulated cut to
assure there will be no interference or danger
of cutting the fence.
P r o v i d e a d e q u a t e s u p p o r t s u c h a s
table extensions, saw horses, etc. for a
workpieces that is wider or longer than
the table top. Workpieces longer or wider
than the miter saw table can tip if not securely
supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece
tips, it can lift the lower guard or be thrown by
the spinning blade.
Do not use another person as a substitute
for a table extension or as additional
support. Unstable support for the workpiece
can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece
to shift during the cutting operation, pulling
you and the helper into the spinning blade.
The cut-off piece must not be jammed
or pressed by any means against the
spinning saw blade. If confined, i.e.,
using length stops, the cut-off piece could
get wedged against the blade and thrown
violently.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings
Always use a clamp or a fixture designed
to properly support round material such
as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to
roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite"
and pull the work with your hand into the
blade.
Let the blade reach full speed before
contacting the workpiece. This will reduce
the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
I f t h e w o r k p i e c e o r b l a d e b e c o m e s
jammed, turn the miter saw off. Wait for
all moving parts to stop and disconnect
the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack. Then work to
free the jammed material. Continued sawing
with a jammed workpiece could cause loss of
control or damage to miter saw.
After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for
blade to stop before removing the cut-
off piece. Reaching with your hand near the
coasting blade is dangerous.
Hold the handle firmly when making an
incomplete cut or when releasing the
switch before the saw head is completely
in the down position. The braking action
of the saw may cause the saw head to be
suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of
injury.
