safety glasses.
Tool Use and Care
G
Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable plat-
form. Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable. It allows for work to
shift, causes binding of the tool and loss
of control.
G
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed. Do not use the tool for purpose not
intended - for example; do not use the miter
saw for slicing meats.
G
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
"ON" or "OFF". Any tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous.
G
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments or changing
accessories. Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting the tool acci-
dentally.
G
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges, are
less likely to bind and easier to control. When
mounting saw blades be certain that the arrow
on the blade matches the direction of the arrow
marked on the tool and that the teeth are also
pointing in the same direction.
G
Inspect guards before using a tool. Keep
guards in place.

affect the normal operation or safety fea-

are caused by poorly maintained tools.
G
Do not alter or misuse tool. Any alteration or
modification is a misuse and may result in seri-
ous personal injury.

Safety Rules
For Miter Saws
G
Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by
hand, you must always keep hand outside of
"No Hand" area as marked with a symbol on
the base. Do not use this saw to cut pieces
that are too small to be securely clamped.
Your hand if placed inside the "No Hands"
region can easily slip or be pulled into
the blade.
G
Do not reach in back of the saw blade
behind the fence with either hand to hold
down or support the workpiece, remove
wood scraps, or for any other reason. The
proximity of the spinning saw blade to your
hand may not be obvious and you may be
seriously injured.
G
Never cross your hand over intended line of
cutting. Supporting the workpiece "cross
handed" i.e. holding the left side of the
workpiece with

Always disconnect the power cord from the
power source before making any adjust-
ments or attaching any accessories.
may unintentionally start the saw, leading to
serious personal injury.
G
Miter saws are intended to cut wood or
woodlike products, they cannot be used
with abrasive cutoff wheels for cutting
ferrous material such as bars, rods, studs,
etc. However, if cutting materials like
aluminum or other non-ferrous metals, use
only saw blades specifically recommended
for non-ferrous metal cutting. Cutting ferrous
materials causes excessive sparking and will
damage the lower guard and will overload the
motor. (NOTE:
does not offer 10" metal cutting blades.)
