Whenever Saw Is Running

WARNING: Don't allow familiarity
(gained from frequent use of
your miter saw) cause a careless
mistake. A careless fraction of a
second is enough to cause a
severe injury.
Before starting your cut, watch the
miter saw while it runs. If it makes an
unfamiliar noise or vibrates a lot, stop
immediately. Turn the saw off. Unplug
the saw. Do not restart until finding
and correcting the problem.
Keep Children Away. Keep all visi-
tors a safe distance from the miter
saw. Make sure bystanders are clear
of the miter saw and workpiece.
Never confine the piece being cut
off. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or
use length stops against it while the
blade is spinning. It must be free to
move sideways on its own. If con-
fined, it could get wedged against the
blade and thrown violently.

Never Leave Tool Running Unat-
tended.Turn power off. Wait for all
moving parts to stop.
Make workshop child-proof. Install
a padlock through the hole provided
Let the blade reach full speed
before cutting. This will help reduce
the risk of a thrown workpiece.
Don't Force Tool. It will do the job
better and safer at its designed rate.

fast enough to let the blade cut with-
out bogging down or binding.

After finishing a cut:
• Keep holding the power head down.
• Release the switch, and wait for all

your hands or raising power head.
• If blade doesn't stop within 6 sec-
onds, unplug the saw and follow the
instructions in the Trouble Shooting
