identified by BULLET (•) symbol listed BELOW and other safety precautions,
may result in serious personal injury.
• Do not stand on tool or its stand. Serious
injury may occur if the tool is tipped or if the
cutting tool is accidentally contacted. Do not
store materials on or near the tool such that it
is necessary to stand on the tool or its stand
to reach them.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear
safety goggles. Dust mask, safety shoes,
hard hat or hearing protection must be used
for appropriate conditions. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses,
they are NOT safety glasses.
Tool Use and Care
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed. Do not use the tool for purpose not
intended - for example; do not use the miter
saw for slicing meats.
• Direction of feed — Feed work into a blade
or cutter against the direction of rotation of
the blade or cutter only.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
"ON" or "Off". Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments or
changing accessories. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the tool accidentally.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting
edges, are less likely to bind and easier to
control. When mounting saw blades be
certain that the arrow on the blade matches
the direction of the arrow marked on the tool
and that the teeth are also pointing in the
same direction.
