ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to slide compound saw safety rules. If you use this
tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious
personal injury.
1. Wear eye protection.
2. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid
contact with any coasting blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
3. Do not operate saw without guards in place.
Check blade guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate saw if blade guard
does not move freely and close instantly.
Never clamp or tie the blade guard into the
open position.
4. Do not perform any operation freehand. The
workpiece must be secured firmly against the
turn base and guide fence with a vise during
all operations. Never use your hand to secure
the workpiece.
5. Never reach around saw blade.
6. Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop
before moving workpiece or changing settings.
7. Unplug tool
servicing.
8. To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to
the full rear position after each crosscut
operation.
9. Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.
10. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down
is for carrying and storage purposes only and
not for any cutting operations.
11. Do not use the tool in the presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
12. Check the blade carefully for cracks or
damage before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged blade immediately. Gum and wood
pitch hardened on blades slows saw and
increases potential for kickback. Keep blade clean

by first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with
gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene.
Never use gasoline to clean blade.
13. While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can occur.
KICKBACK occurs when the blade binds in the
workpiece during a cutting operation and the
saw blade is driven back rapidly towards the
operator. Loss of control and serious personal
injury can result. If blade begins to bind during
a cutting operation, do not continue to cut and
release switch immediately.
14. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
15. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt.
Damage to these parts could result in blade
breakage.
16. Make sure that the turn base is properly
secured so it will not move during operation.
Use the holes in the base to fasten the saw to
a stable work platform or bench. NEVER use
tool where operator positioning would be
awkward.
17. For your safety, remove the chips, small
pieces,
operation.
18. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
or
nails from the workpiece before operation.
19. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
20. Be sure that the blade does not contact the
turn base in the lowest position.
21. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw
moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
22. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
23. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
24. Wait until the blade attains full speed before
cutting.
