Operating/Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT: Read Before Operating Equipment
To avoid accidents or injury, keep work area clean, well lit, and well
ventilated.
Always wear eye, hand, and all other appropriate protective apparel
when operating saw.
Keep all other people, children, and small farm animals away while
operating saw.
Use only properly grounded, GFCI protected electrical outlet. GFCI
must be tested every 2 months.
Warning
: Do NOT turn machine on or off with the GFCI safety switch.
Turn machine power switch off before resetting the GFCI.
Ensure that the electrical system in your work location meets all codes
and regulations prior to operating saw.
Do not modify the plug on the saw or use any adapters between the saw
and the electrical outlet.
Do not allow water to run directly on the motor or any other electrical
component.
If power cord or any other part of the saw is damaged, discontinue use
immediately until damaged parts can be replaced.
Keep saw blade clear of clothing, jewelry, hair, cords, hoses, or any other
objects while in operation.
Ensure that the saw is switched off before plugging or unplugging it.
Ensure that blade is clamped firmly between flanges and spinning freely
prior to operating.
Do not stand directly in front of or behind the saw while in operation.
Keep hands on top of the saw and away from the blade while operating.
Never force the saw if it seems to be stuck or if it seems to be moving
with difficulty.
Use only blades of correct size and shape. Do not modify blades.
Do not force bolts; most have been assembled with an adhesive, such as
a Loctite® threadlocker adhesive, for safety.
Loctite is a registered trademark of Henkel Corporation.
Give one good squirt of marine grease in the zerk fitting once a month.
Do not grease the lifting/lowering mechanism. Use a dry lubricant such
as PTFE (Teflon®) or a graphite-based spray when necessary.
