WARNING:
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
 KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the operator's
manual carefully. Learn the saw's applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential hazards related
to this tool.
 G U A R D A G A I N S T E L E C T R I C A L S H O C K B Y
PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH GROUNDED
SURFACES. For example, pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerator enclosures.
 KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working order.
 REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from tool before turning it on.
 KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents. DO NOT leave tools or pieces
of wood on the saw while it is in operation.
 DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do
not use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose
to rain. Keep the work area well lit.
 KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All visitors
should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe distance
from work area. Do not let visitors contact tool or
extension cord while operating.
 MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks and
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
 DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer
at the feed rate for which it was designed.
 USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force the tool or attachment to
do a job it was not designed for. Don't use it for a purpose
not intended.
 USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition. Use only a
cord heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
 DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, or jewelry. They can get caught and draw you
into moving parts. Also wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair.
 ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WITH SIDE
SHIELDS MARKED TO COMPLY WITH ANSI Z87.1.
Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into
your eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

3 - English
 SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when
practical. It's safer than using your hand and frees both
hands to operate tool.
 DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
 MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp
and clean for better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
 DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before
servicing, or when changing attachments, blades, bits,
cutters, etc., all tools should be disconnected.
 AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure switch is off
when plugging in any tool.
 USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the
operator's manual for recommended accessories. The
use of improper accessories may risk injury.
 NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
 CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect
its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged must
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center to avoid risk of personal injury.
 USE THE RIGHT DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into
a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of blade
or cutter only.
 NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN
THE POWER OFF. Don't leave tool until it comes to a
complete stop.
 PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or dust mask if
the cutting operation is dusty.
 PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing protection
during extended periods of operation.
 DO NOT ABUSE CORD. Never yank cord to disconnect
from receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges.
 WHEN OPERATING A POWER TOOL OUTSIDE, USE
AN OUTDOOR EXTENSION CORD MARKED "W-A"
OR "W". These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
 ALWAYS KEEP THE BLADE GUARD AND RIVING
KNIFE (SPLITTER) IN PLACE and in working order.
 KEEP BLADES CLEAN, SHARP, AND WITH SUFFICIENT
SET. Sharp blades minimize stalling and kickback.
 KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep
hands away from blades. Do not reach underneath work
or around or over the blade while blade is rotating. Do not
attempt to remove cut material when blade is moving.
 BLADE COASTS AFTER BEING TURNED OFF.
