DRESS FOR SAFETY
O
Any power tool can throw
foreign
objects into the eyes.
This can result in permanent
eye damage. Everyday eyeglasses have
only impact resistant lenses and are not
safety glasses. Glasses or goggles not
in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could
seriously injure you when they break.
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties or jewelry (rings, watches etc).
They can get caught and draw you into
moving parts.
Wear non-slip footwear.
Tie back long hair.
Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
Noise levels vary widely. To avoid
possible hearing damage, wear hearing
protection when using any miter saw.
For dusty procedures, wear a dust mask
along with safety goggles.
INSPECT THE WORKPIECE
Check the workpiece and ensure that it does
not contain prohibited materials such as
masonry or asbestos. Plan the sequence of
procedures you wish to perform to ensure that
the workpiece is always securely clamped to
the saw table. Avoid small pieces as they are
difficult to clamp securely.
Avoid awkward procedures and hand
positions where an inadvertent slip could
cause your fingers or hand to move into the
blade.
I A. WARNING J
DO NOT OVER-REACH
To avoid serious blade cut injury, NEVER
extend your arm or hand so that it is in the
path of the blade.
Keep good footing and balance. Stand to one
side so that your face and body are out of
line of a possible kickback. NEVER extend
your arm or hand so that it is "in-line" with the
cutting path of the blade.Freehand
cutting is
a major cause of accidents and should
not
be attempted.
Ensure that the workpiece is always
firmly resting against the fence, and
where practical is clamped with the hold
down clamp to the table.
The table should be clean and free from
any sawdust etc. before the workpiece is
clamped into position.
Ensure that the 'cut-off' material is free to
move sideways away from the blade when
the cut is completed. Ensure that the 'cut-
off' piece cannot become 'jammed' in any
other part of the machine.
Always secure the workpiece. Use hold
down clamp(s) whenever practical.
Do not use this saw to cut small pieces.
If the workpiece being cut would cause
your hand or fingers to be within 6-3/8
inch of the saw blade, the workpiece is
too small.
Keep hands and fingers out of the 'no
hands zone' marked on the saw table by
pictograms.
