f Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels
and other accessories running over rated speed can
fly apart and cause injury. Accessory ratings must
always be above tool speed as shown on tool nameplate.
f Always make sure the saw is clean before using.
f Stop using this saw and have it properly serviced if
any unusual noise or abnormal operation occurs.
f Always be sure all components are mounted properly
and securely before using tool.
f Always handle the saw blade with care when mounting
or removing it or when removing the diamond knockout.
f Always wait until the motor has reached full speed
before starting a cut.
f Always keep handles dry, clean and free of oil and
grease. Hold the tool firmly with both hands when in use.
f Always be alert at all times, especially during repetitive,
monotonous operations. Always be sure of position of
your hands relative to the blade.
f Stay clear of end pieces that may fall after cutting off.
They may be hot, sharp and/or heavy. Serious personal
injury may result.
f Replace or repair damaged cords. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Use only 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type
plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
f An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The
smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater
the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more
capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. When using more than one extension to
make up the total length, be sure each individual
extension contains at least the minimum wire size.
The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Caution! Blades coast after turn off. Serious personal
injury may result.
Warning! Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during
use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise
from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
Warning! Always use proper eye protection. All
users and bystanders must wear proper eye protection that
conforms to ANSI Z87.1.
Warning! Always use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS wear certified
safety equipment:
f ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CPA Z94.3),
f ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
f NOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
Warning! Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known in the state of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
f Lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from
bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
(CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
f Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
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. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure.
Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate
tool in well-ventilated area and provide for proper dust
removal. Use dust collection system wherever possible.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. The following table shows
the correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
