SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use the Bosch CM10GD miter saw to cut fiber cement board.
Cutting materials
containing crystalline silica may create exposures to respirable silica dust.
▶ Extension Cords
•
Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of
damaged cords can shock, burn or electrocute.
•
If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with
adequate size conductors should be used to pre-
vent excessive voltage drop, loss of power or
overheating. The table shows the correct size to
use, depending on cord length and nameplate
amperage rating of tool. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. Always use UL and CSA listed
extension cords.
RECOMMENDED SIZES OF EXTENSION CORDS
120 VOLT ALTERNATING CURRENT TOOLS
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the higher the
cord capacity.
•
Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of
your miter saw to become commonplace.
Always
remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.
•
THINK SAFETY! SAFETY IS A COMBINATION OF
OPERATOR’S COMMON SENSE, KNOWLEDGE OF
THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AND ALERTNESS AT ALL TIMES WHEN THE MITER
SAW IS BEING USED.
THE WARNINGS SHOWN BELOW
CAN BE FOUND ON YOUR TOOL.
THESE WARNINGS ARE ONLY A CONDENSED FORM
OF THE MORE DETAILED SAFETY RULES AND
PRECAUTIONS THAT APPEAR IN YOUR OWNER’S
MANUAL. THEY SERVE AS A REMINDER OF ALL
SAFETY RULES NEEDED FOR SAFE OPERATION OF
THIS MITER SAW.
Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals
are:
•
Lead from lead-based paints,
•
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
•
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those
dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
