DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR USE IN DAMP LOCATIONS DO NOT
OPERATE MACHINE WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS;
ALCOHOL OR MEDICAMENTATION
Never operate a machine when tired, or under the influence of drugs or
alcohol or medicamentation. Full mental alertness is required at all times
when running a machine.
NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED CHILDREN OR UNTRAINED PER-
SONNEL TO OPERATE THE MACHINE.
Make sure any instructions you give in regards to machine operation
are approved, correct, safe, and clearly understood. Unsupervised vis-
itors or children inside your shop could receive serious personal injury.
Ensure child and visitor safety by keeping all entrances to the shop, the
ON/OFF knob on the saw locked and the plug removed from the power
supply outlet at all times the saw is unsupervised.
KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL
Read and understand the owner's manual and all the labels affixed to
the tool. Learn its application and limitations as well as the specific po-
tential hazards peculiar to this tool.
DO NOT FEED THE MATERIAL TOO FAST WHILE CUTTING
Only feed the material fast enough so that the blade will cut.
BEFORE EACH USE INSPECT YOUR SAW AND CHECK DAMAGED
PARTS AND WATCH THE SAW WHILE IT RUNS
Before use of the tool, any part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. If the saw makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates excessively,
stop immediately; turn the saw off. Unplug the saw! Check for alignment
of moving parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. If any part is missing, broken or bent in any way, or any elec-
trical parts don't work properly, turn the saw off and unplug the saw.
Do not restart until finding and fixing the problem correctly. All repairs,
electrical or mechanical, should be attempted only by trained repairmen.
USE BLADES AND ACCESSORIES RECOMMENDED FOR YOUR
MACHINE
Choose the right size and style blade for the material and the type of cut-
ting you plan to perform. Use only recommended accessories and follow
the instructions that come with the accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury. Remove plug from power supply
outlet before installing or removing any saw blades or other accessories.
DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL
These Scroll Saws are precision built. Any alteration or modification not
specified is misuse and may result in dangerous conditions.
AVOID POSITIONS
where a slip could cause your hand to go into the blade. Wear non slip
footwear.
DO NOT START THE SAW WITH THE BLADE IN CONTACT WITH
THE WORKPIECE.
BEFORE STARTING YOUR WORK ALWAYS INSPECT YOUR WORK-
PIECE:
Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the work
piece to be cut.
REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE!
Remove all traces of wood dust from on and around the saw. Remove
all metal shavings from on or around the saw before sawing wood again.
WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and oth-
er construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of Cal-
ifornia 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 prod-
ucts, 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.

Use a vacuum cleaner for wood dust collection as described in our man-
ual whenever possible
3.1 Grounding instructions
All grounded, cord-connected tools:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-ground-
ing conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a
matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided - if it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect the equipment- grounding conductor to a
live terminal. 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 3-wire extension
cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that
accept the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately. Grounded,
cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nom-
inal rating less than 150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like
the one illustrated in Sketch A in Figure 9. The tool has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in Sketch A in Figure 13 temporary
adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Sketches B and C,
may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in
Sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid
ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
