6. Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured.
7. Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always
make certain that there is no gap between the
workpiece, fence and table along the line of the
cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift
and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade
while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign
objects in the workpiece.
8. Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all
tools, wood scraps,
workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or
other objects that contact the revolving blade can be
thrown with high speed.
9. Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked
multiple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped
or braced and may bind on the blade or shift during
cutting.
10. Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a
level, firm work surface before use. A level and
firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw
becoming unstable.
11. Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel
or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable
fence is set correctly to support the workpiece
and will not interfere with the blade or the
guarding system. Without turning the tool "ON" and
with no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade
through a complete simulated cut to assure there
will be no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
12. Provide adequate
extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that
is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces
longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip if not
securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece
tips, it can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the
spinning blade.
13. Do not use another person as a substitute for a
table extension
Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the
blade to bind or the workpiece to shift during the
cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the
spinning blade.
14. The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning saw
blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off
piece could get wedged against the blade and
thrown violently.
15. Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods or
tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being
cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the work with
your hand into the blade.
16. Let the blade reach full speed before contacting
the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
etc., except for
support such as
or as additional support.
17. If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn
the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to
stop and disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack. Then
work to free the jammed material. Continued
sawing with a jammed workpiece could cause loss
of control or damage to the mitre saw.
18. After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold
the saw head down and wait for the blade to stop
before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with
your hand near the coasting blade is dangerous.
19. Hold the handle firmly when making
incomplete cut or when releasing the switch
before the saw head is completely in the down
position. The braking action of the saw may cause
the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward,
the
causing a risk of injury.
20. Only use the saw blade with the diameter that is
marked on the tool or specified in the manual.
Use of an incorrectly sized blade may affect the
proper guarding of the blade or guard operation
which could result in serious personal injury.
21. Only use the saw blades that are marked with a
speed equal or higher than the speed marked on
the tool.
22. Do not use the saw to cut other than wood,
aluminum or similar materials.
23. (For European countries only)
Always use the blade which conforms to EN847-
1.
Additional instructions
1. Make workshop kid proof with padlocks.
2. Never stand on the tool. Serious injury could occur
if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
3. Never leave the tool running unattended. Turn
table
the power off. Do not leave tool until it comes to
a complete stop.
4. 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.
5. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid
contact with any coasting blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
6. To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the
full rear position after each crosscut operation.
7. Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.
8. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down is
for carrying and storage purposes only and not
for any cutting operations.
9. Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
blade immediately.
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.
