SAFETY 

USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. 
If using an extension cord make sure it is in good condition first. 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 that will result in a loss of power and overheating.  
 
WEAR PROPER APPAREL. 
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may be caught in moving parts. Non slip 
footwear is recommended. Wear protective  hair covering to contain long hair.  
 
                    ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. 
Safety glasses should always be worn when working around power tools. In addition, a face, dust mask or respirator should 
be worn if a cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses and may not prevent eye injury
-they are NOT safety glasses.  
 
DO NOT OVERREACH.  
Keep proper footing and balance at all times by not overreaching. Keep your hands free to operate a power tool is safer. 
 
CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. 
Before using a power tool, check for damaged parts. A guard or any other part that is damages should be carefully checked to 
determine it would operate properly and perform its intended function. Always check moving parts for proper alignment or 
binding. Check for broken parts and mountings and all other conditions that may affect the operation if the power tool. A 
guard, or any damaged part, should be properly repaired or replaced. 
 
DIRECTION OF FEED. 
Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of rotation. A blade or a cutter should always be installed such 
that rotation is in the direction of the arrow imprinted on the side of the blade or cutter.  
 
NEVER LEAVE A TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED—TURN OFF POWER. 
Do not leave a tool until it comes to a complete stop. Always turn a power tool OFF when leaving the work area, or, when a 
cut is finished.  
 

           WARNING 

Sawing and drilling generates dust. Excessive airborne particles may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, respiratory tract. To 
avoid breathing impairment, always employ dust controls and protection suitable to the material being sawed or drilled; See 
OSHA (29 CFR Part 1910. 1200). Diamond Blades improperly used are dangerous. Comply with American National Stand-
ards Institute Safety Code, B7.1 and, Occupational Safety and Health Act covering Speed, Safety Guards, Flanges, Mounting 
procedures, General Operating Rules, Handling, Storage and General Machine Conditions.

           WARNING 

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contain  
chemicals known [known to the State of California] to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some Exam-
ples of these chemicals are: 



Lead, from lead-based 



Crystalline silica, from bricks and cement and other masonry products and  



Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber

The IQ 360 is very effective dust control saw but, your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you 
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work well 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.
