the switch is released. An unprotected moving
blade will cause the saw to travel backwards,
cutting whatever is in its path.
• Never hold the piece being cut in your hands
or across your legs. It is important to support
the workpiece properly in order to minimize
body exposure, blade binding, or loss of con-
trol.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces (han-
dles) when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
the exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
• Always clamp the workpiece securely so it
will not move when making the cut.
• Always use a rip fence or straight edge guide
when performing rip cuts. This improves the
accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance of
the blade binding.
• Always use blades that have the correct size
and shape (diamond vs. round) arbor holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting hard-
ware of the saw will run erratically and cause
loss of control.
• Never use damaged or incorrect blade wash-
ers or bolts. The blade washers and bolts were
specially designed for your saw for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
• Never cut more than one piece at a time.
Do not stack more than one workpiece on the
worktable at a time.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand posi-
tions where a sudden slip could cause your
hand to move into the blade.
• Never reach into the cutting path of the
blade.
WARNING: Use of this product can generate
dust containing chemicals known to the state
of California 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 products.
· Arsenic and chromium, from chemically
treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending upon how often you do this
type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
· Work in a well-ventilated area.
E N G L I S H •
· Work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from pow-
er sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction activities. Wear protective cloth-
ing and wash exposed areas with soap and wa-
ter. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes
or lay on the skin may promote absorption of
harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate
and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Al-
ways use NIOSH / OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure.
Direct particles away from face and body.
GLOSSARY OF WOODWORKING
TERMS
Arbor: The shaft on which the cutting tool is
mounted. Also called the Spindle.
Bevel Cut: A cutting operation made with the
blade at any angle other than 90° to the plane
of the workpiece.
Chamfer Cut: A cut removing a wedge from a
block of wood so that the end (or portion of
the end) is angled other than 90°.
Compound Miter Cut: A cut with both a bevel
angle and a miter angle.
Cross Cut: A cutting or shaping operation
made against the grain of the workpiece.
Dado Cut: A non-through cut that produces a
square-sided notch or trough in the workpiece
(requires a special blade).
Gum: A sticky, sap-based residue from hard-
woods.
Hypoid Gear: Specially machined gearing for
efficient power transfer.
Kerf: The material removed by the blade in a
through cut, or the slot produced by the blade
in a non-through cut or partial cut.
Kickback: A hazard that can occur when the
blade binds or stalls, throwing the cutting tool
back towards the operator.
Miter Cut: A cutting operation made with the
blade at any angle other than 90° to the fence.
Non-Through Cuts: Any cutting operation
where the blade does not extend completely
through the thickness of the workpiece, such
as a dado cut.
