        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.

•       

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.

•       

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.

•       

Ensure the miter saw is mounted or placed on a level,

        firm work surface before use.

 A level and firm work

        

surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becoming

        

unstable.

•       

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.

•       

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.

•       

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.

•       

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.

•       

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.

•       

Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the

        workpiece.

 This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being

        thrown.

•       

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 loss of control or damage to the

        

miter saw.

•       

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.

•       

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

•       

Use only saw blades recommended by the manufacturer

        for wood and analogous materials.

•       

Pay attention to the cutting capacities mentioned in the

        technical date.

•       

Pay attention to the maximum bevel angle and miter

        angle settings mentioned in the technical data.

•       

Use only a saw blade diameter in accordance with the

        markings on the saw and information about the bore
        diameter and the maximum kerf of the saw blade.

•       

Use only saw blades that are marked with a speed equal or

        higher than the speed marked on the tool.

•       

During blade changing procedure, the rotation direction

        arrow on the saw blade should comply with the one on the
        upper fixed blade guard.

•       

Pay attention to the setting device(s) and the locking

        device(s) for the miter angle and bevel angel mentioned in
        the controls.

•       

Turn the lower retractable blade guard by hand to test if it

        is rotating smoothly.

•       

Pay attention to how to connect dust extraction systems

        mentioned in assembly.

•       

Pay attention to the cutting sequence mentioned in the

        operation.

•       

Pay attention to the cutting depth for non-through cuts

        mentioned in the controls. Ensure that the miter saw is
        always stable and secure.

•       

Always fix and use the extension supporter during

        operation.

•       

Use additional supports if needed to ensure the stability of

        the workpiece.

•       

The power tool shall not be wet or applied in wet

        environment.

•       

Check the product, its power cord and plug as well as

        accessories for damage before each use. Do not use the
        product if it is damaged or shows wear.

•       

Double check that the accessories and attachments are

        properly fixed.

•       

Always hold the product on its handle. Keep the handle dry

        to ensure safe support.

•       

Ensure that the air vents are always unobstructed and

        clear. Clean them if necessary with a soft brush. Blocked air
        vents may lead to overheating and damage the product.

•       

Switch the product off immediately if you are disturbed

        while working by other people entering the working area.
        Always let the product come to complete stop before
        putting it down.

•       

Do not overwork yourself. Take regular breaks to ensure

        you can concentrate on the work and have full control over
        the product.

Additional safety warnings for miter saw

        of the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
        downward, causing a risk of injury.
