Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you

second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields
marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do
so could result in objects being thrown into your
eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories
not recommended by the manufacturer of this
tool. The use of attachments or accessories not
recommended can result in serious personal injury.
APPLICATIONS
This product has been designed only for the purposes listed
below:
 Cross cutting wood and plastic (do not cut metals,
ceramics, or masonry products)
 Cross cutting miters, joints, etc. for picture frames,
moldings, door casings, and fine joinery.
 Bevel cutting and compound cutting.
NOTE: The blade provided is fine for most wood cutting
operations, but for fine joinery cuts or cutting plastic, use
one of the accessory blades available from the place of
purchase of your new RIDGID miter saw.
WARNING:
Before starting any cutting operation, clamp or bolt
your miter saw to a workbench or leg stand. Never
operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched
position. Failure to heed this warning can result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always push the
miter lock lever down and tighten the bevel lock
knob securely before making a cut. Failure to do
so could result in movement of the control arm or
miter table while making a cut.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, keep your hands
outside the no hands zone; at least 3 in. from blade.
Never perform any cutting operation freehand
(without holding workpiece against the fence). The
blade could grab the workpiece if it slips or twists.
WARNING:
Do not start your compound miter saw without
checking for interference between the blade and
the miter fence. Damage could result to the blade
if it strikes the miter fence during operation of the
saw. Failure to heed this warning can also result in
serious personal injury.
CUTTING WITH YOUR COMPOUND MITER
SAW
WARNING:
When using a work clamp or C-clamp to secure
your workpiece, clamp workpiece on one side of
the blade only. The workpiece must remain free
on one side of the blade to prevent the blade from
binding in workpiece. The workpiece binding the
blade will cause motor stalling and kickback. This
situation could cause an accident resulting in
possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER move the workpiece or make adjustment to
any cutting angle while the saw is running and the
blade is rotating. Any slip can result in contact with
the blade causing serious personal injury.
