Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause
binding on tile spinning saw blade while cutting. There should
be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
h) Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood
scraps, etc., except for the workpiece.
Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that
contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
i) 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.
j) Ensure the miter saw is mounted or placed on a level, fi rm
work surface before use.
A level and fi rm work surface reduces the risk of the miter saw
becoming unstable.
k) Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or miter
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.
I) Provide adequate support such as table extensions, saw
horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or longer than the
table top.
Workpieces longer or wider than the miter 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.
m) Do not use another person as a substitute for a table
extension or as additional support.
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.
n) The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any
means against the spinning saw blade.
If confi ned, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get
wedged against the blade and thrown violently.
o) Always use a clamp or a fi xture 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.
p) Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the
workpiece.
This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
q) If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the miter
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 lass of
control or damage to the miter saw.
r) After fi nishing 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.
s) Hold the handle fi rmly when making an 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, causing a risk of injury.
