Additional Warnings - Evolution S355 MCS Instrucciones Originales

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.
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 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.
k) 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.
l) 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 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.
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 confined, 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 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.
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 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.
r) 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.
s) Hold the handle firmly 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.
WARNING: If any parts are missing, do not
operate your machine until the missing parts are
replaced. Failure to follow this rule could result in
serious personal injury.

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

1. Keep guards in place and in working order.
2. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from tool before turning
it on.
3. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
4. Don't use in dangerous environment. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet
locations, or expose them to rain. Keep
work area well lit.
5. Keep children away. All visitors should be kept
safe distance from work area.
6. Make workshop child proof with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7. Don't force the tool. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8. Use the right tool. Don't force the tool or
attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed.
9. Use proper extension cord. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. 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 table on the next page 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.
10. Wear proper apparel do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewellery which may get caught in moving
parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
11. Always use safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they
are not safety glasses.
12. Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
13. Don't overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
14. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools
sharp and clean for best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
