Example 1
Failure to comply with the following warnings may result in serious personal injury.
•
Never touch the free end of the workpiece or a free piece
that is cut off, while the power is on and/or the saw blade is
rotating. Blade contact or binding may occur, resulting in a thrown
workpiece
•
When sawing a long workpiece or a panel, use a work support,
such as a sawhorse, rollers or outfeed table at the same height as
the table surface of the saw.
•
Never try to pull the workpiece back with the blade turning. If you
need to pull the workpiece back or lift it off the table, turn the
switch off, allow the blade to stop, raise the anti-kickback teeth on
each side of the riving knife if necessary, and slide the workpiece
out.
•
Before connecting the table saw to the power source or operating
the saw, always inspect the blade guard assembly and riving
knife for proper alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check
alignment after each change of beveling angle.
•
Always make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are
in place and working properly when making these cuts to avoid
possible injury.
•
Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to
heed this warning could result in personal injury.

MAKING CUTS
•
A rip fence should ALWAYS be used for ripping operations to
prevent loss of control and personal injury. Always lock the fence
to the rail. NEVER perform a ripping operation freehand.
•
When making bevel cuts, place the fence on the right side of the
blade so that the blade is tilted away from the fence and hands.
Keep hands clear of the blade and use a push stick to feed the
workpiece unless the workpiece is large enough to allow you to
hold it more than 6 inches (152 mm) from the blade.
•
Before leaving the saw unattended, lock out power switch, or take
other appropriate measures to prevent unauthorized use of the
saw.
•
This saw is designed to cut wood, plywood, composite decking
material, and certain plastics when using the correct blade.
•
DO NOT use this saw for cutting metal, tile or other materials not
listed on your blade.
•
To avoid kickback, make sure one side of the workpiece is securely
against the rip fence during any rip cut, and hold the workpiece
firmly against the miter gauge during any miter cut.
•
Do not attempt compound miter cuts, with blade beveled and
miter fence angled, until you are thoroughly familiar with the basic
cuts and understand how to avoid kickback.
•
Avoid bevel rip cuts with majority of material on left side of blade.
