ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

Use the proper extension cord. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Use only a cord heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. A wire gauge size
(A.W.G.) of at least
14 is recommended for an extension
cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord.

Inspect tool cords periodically.
If damaged, have
repaired by a qualified service technician at an authorized
service facility. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord
immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and
keep it well away from the rotating blade.

Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged.

Polarized plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Know your power tool.
Read the operator’s manual
carefully. Learn the applications and limitations as well
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.

Always wear eye protection with side shields which
is marked to comply with ansi Z87.1 when using this
product.
Failure to do so could result in objects being
thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.

Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool
is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.

Keep guards in place
and in good working order.

Use the right direction of feed. Feed work into a blade,
cutter, or sanding spindle against the direction of rotation
of the blade, cutter, or sanding spindle only.

Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power
off.
Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

Use only correct blades. Do not use blades with
incorrect size holes. Never use blade washers or blade
bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade
capacity of your saw is 10 in.

Before making a cut, be sure all adjustments are
secure.

Never touch blade or other moving parts during use.

Double check all setups. Make sure blade is tight
and not making contact with saw or workpiece before
connecting to power supply.

Firmly clamp or bolt
your tool to a workbench or table
at approximately hip height.

Make sure the miter table and saw arm (bevel function)
are locked in position before operating your saw.
Lock
the miter table by pushing the miter lock lever down. Lock
the saw arm (bevel function) by securely tightening the
bevel lock knob.

Never move the workpiece or make adjustment to any
cutting angle while the saw is running and the blade
is rotating.
Any slip can result in contact with the blade
causing serious personal injury.

Avoid awkward operations and hand positions
where a
sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the blade.
ALWAYS
make sure you have good balance.
NEVER
operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched
position.

Never stand or have any part of the body in line with the
path of the saw blade.

Do not turn the motor switch on and off rapidly. This
could cause the saw blade to loosen and could create
a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow
the saw blade to come to a complete stop. Disconnect
your saw from the power supply and securely retighten
the blade bolt.

If any part of this miter saw is missing
or should
break, bend, or fail in any way, or should any electrical
component fail to perform properly, shut off the power
switch, remove the miter saw plug from the power source
and have damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced
before resuming operation.

Always turn off the saw before disconnecting it to avoid
accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply.
NEVER leave the saw unattended while connected to a
power source.
