COMPACT SLIDING COMPOUND MITER SAW SAFETY
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS
COMPOUND MITER SAW
DO NOT USE THIN KERF BLADES they can deflect and
contact guard and can cause possible injury to the operator.
1. DO NOT operate the miter saw until it is completely
assembled and installed according to these instructions.
2. IF YOU ARE NOT thoroughly familiar with the operation
of miter saws, seek guidance from your supervisor,
instructor or other qualified person.
3. ALWAYS hold the work firmly against the fence and
table. DO NOT perform any operation free hand
(use clamp wherever possible).
4. KEEP HANDS out of the path of the saw blade. If the
workpiece you are cutting would cause your hands to be
within 8.66 in. of the saw blade, the workpiece should
be clamped in place before making the cut.
5. BE SURE the blade is sharp, runs freely and is free
of vibration.
6. ALLOW the motor to come up to full speed before
starting a cut.
7. KEEP THE MOTOR AIR SLOTS CLEAN and free
of chips or dust.
8. ALWAYS MAKE SURE all handles are tight before
cutting, even if the table is positioned in one of the
positive stops.
9. BE SURE both the blade and the collar are clean and the
arbor bolt is tightened securely.
10. USE only blade collars specified for your saw.
11. NEVER use blades larger in diameter than 12 in.
12. NEVER apply lubricants to the blade when it is running.
13. ALWAYS check the blade for cracks or damage before
operation. Replace a cracked or damaged blade
immediately.
14. NEVER use blades recommended for operation
at less than 4000 RPM.
15. ALWAYS keep the blade guards in place and
use at all times.
16. NEVER reach around the saw blade.
17. MAKE SURE the blade is not contacting the workpiece
before the switch is turned ON.
18. IMPORTANT: After completing the cut, release the
trigger and wait for the blade to stop before returning the
saw to the raised position.
19. MAKE SURE the blade has come to a complete stop
before removing or securing the workpiece, changing
the workpiece angle or changing the angle of the blade.
20. NEVER cut metals or masonry products with this tool.
This miter saw is designed for use on wood and
wood-like products.
21. NEVER cut small pieces. If the workpiece being cut would
cause your hand or fingers to be within 8.66 in. of the
saw blade the workpiece is too small.
22. PROVIDE adequate support to the sides of the saw table
for long work pieces.
23. NEVER use the miter saw in an area with flammable
liquids or gases.
24. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. Solvents
could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage
the material.
25. SHUT OFF the power before servicing or adjusting
the tool.
26. DISCONNECT the saw from the power source and clean
the machine when finished using.
27. MAKE SURE the work area is clean before leaving
the machine.
28. SHOULD any part of your miter saw be missing,
damaged, or fail in any way, or any electrical component
fail to perform properly, lock the switch and remove the
plug from the power supply outlet. Replace missing,
damaged, or failed parts before resuming operation.
29. Because of the downward cutting motion, your safety
requires that you stay very alert to keeping hands and
fingers away from the path that the blade travels.
30. Be sure all guards are in place and working. If a guard
seems slow to return to its normal position or
"hangs-up", adjust or repair it immediately. Be alert at all
times - especially during repetitive, monotonous
operations. Don't be lulled into carelessness due to a
false sense of security. Blades are extremely unforgiving.
Clean the lower guard frequently to help visibility and
movement. Unplug before adjustment or cleaning.
31. Abrasive cut-off wheels should not be used on miter
saws. Miter saw guards are not appropriate for
abrasive cut-off wheels.
32. To avoid loss of control or placing hands in the path of the
blade, hold or clamp all material securely against the
fence when cutting. Do not perform operations freehand.
33. Support long material at the same height as the saw
table.
34. After completing a cut, release the trigger switch and
allow the blade to come to a complete stop, then raise
the saw blade from the workpiece.
35. Lock the miter saw head in the down position during
transport or when not in use.
36. DRY RUN - It is important to know where the blade will
intersect with the workpiece during cutting operations.
Always perform a simulated cutting sequence with the
power tool switched OFF to gain an understanding of the
projected path of the saw blade. At some extreme
angles, the right or left side fence might have to be
removed to ensure proper clearance prior to making
a cut.
