4) Power Tool Use & Care
a) Do not force the power tool.
Use the
correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools.
Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only genuine
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is properly maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS
a) DANGER: Keep hands away from
cutting area and the blade. Keep your
second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing.
If both hands are holding the saw,
they cannot be cut by the blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
The guard cannot protect you from the blade
below the workpiece.
c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness
of the workpiece.
Less than a full tooth of
the blade teeth should be visible below the
workpiece.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands
or across your leg.
Secure the workpiece to
a stable platform. It is important to support
the work properly to minimize body exposure,
blade binding, or loss of control.
e) Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a “live”
wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
f) When ripping always use a rip fence
or straight edge guide.
This improves the
accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of
blade binding.
g) Always use blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbor
holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run eccentrically,
causing loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect blade
washers or bolt.
The blade washers and
bolt were specially designed for your saw, for
optimum performance and safety of operation.
