GENERAL SAFETY RULES

n INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY. If

damaged, have repaired by a qualified service technician at

an authorized service facility. The conductor with insulation

having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow

stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair

or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary,

do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a

live terminal. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord

immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and

keep it well away from the rotating blade.

n INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODICALLY and

replace if damaged.

n POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock,

this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than

the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one

way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the

plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician

to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any

way.

n KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND

GREASE. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never

use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or

any solvents to clean tool.

n STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch what

you are doing and use common sense. Do not operate

tool when you are tired. Do not rush.

n DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT

ON AND OFF. Have defective switches replaced by an

authorized service center.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

n FIRMLY CLAMP OR BOLT your tool to a workbench or

table at approximately hip height.

n KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Do not

reach underneath work or in blade cutting path with your

hands and fingers for any reason. Always turn the power

off.

n ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES while cutting

to minimize risk of blade pinching and kickback. Saw may

slip, walk or slide while cutting long or heavy boards.

n ALWAYS USE A CLAMP to secure the workpiece when

possible.

n BE SURE THE BLADE CLEARS THE WORKPIECE.

Never start the saw with the blade touching the

workpiece. Allow motor to come up to full speed

before starting cut.

n NEVER cut more than one piece at a time. DO NOT

STACK more than one workpiece on the saw table at a

time.

n MAKE SURE THE MITER TABLE AND SAW ARM

(BEVEL FUNCTION) ARE LOCKED IN POSITION

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SAW. Lock the miter

table by securely tightening the miter lock levers. Lock

the saw arm (bevel function) by securely tightening the

bevel lock knob.

n NEVER USE A LENGTH STOP ON THE FREE SCRAP

END OF A CLAMPED WORKPIECE. NEVER hold onto

or bind the free scrap end of the workpiece in any opera-

tion. If a work clamp and length stop are used together,

they must both be installed on the same side of the saw

table to prevent the saw from catching the loose end and

kicking up.

n NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION FREEHAND.

Always place the workpiece to be cut on the miter table

and position it firmly against the fence as a backstop.

Always use the fence.

n NEVER hand hold a workpiece that is too small to be

clamped. Keep hands clear of the cutting area.

n USE ONLY CORRECT BLADES. Do not use blades with

incorrect size holes. Never use blade washers or blade

bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade

capacity of your saw is 10 in.

n BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL ADJUST-

MENTS ARE SECURE.

n BE SURE BLADE PATH IS FREE OF NAILS. Inspect for

and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.

n NEVER TOUCH BLADE or other moving parts during

use.

n NEVER START A TOOL WHEN ANY ROTATING COM-

PONENT IS IN CONTACT WITH THE WORKPIECE.

n DO NOT OPERATE A TOOL WHILE UNDER THE

INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR ANY

MEDICATION.

n WHEN SERVICING use only identical replacement parts.

Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause

product damage.

n USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed

in this manual or addendums. Use of accessories that

are not listed may cause the risk of personal injury.

Instructions for safe use of accessories are included

with the accessory.

n DOUBLE CHECK ALL SETUPS. Make sure blade is

tight and not making contact with saw or workpiece

before connecting to power supply.
