User's manual
Never hold the piece being cut in your hands
or across your legs. It is important to support
the workpiece properly in order to minimize
body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces (han-
dles) when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire
will make the exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and shock the operator.
Always clamp the workpiece securely so it will
not move when making the cut.
Always use a rip fence or straight edge guide
when performing rip cuts. This improves the
accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance of
the blade binding.
Always use blades that have the correct size
and shape (diamond vs. round) arbor holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting hard-
ware of the saw will run erratically and cause
loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect blade wash-
ers or bolts. The blade washers and bolts were
specially designed for your saw for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
Never cut more than one piece at a time. Do
not stack more than one workpiece on the
worktable at a time.
Avoid awkward operations and hand posi-
tions where a sudden slip could cause your
hand to move into the blade.
Never reach into the cutting path of the blade.
WARNING: Use of this product can generate
dust containing chemicals known to the state
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically
treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending upon how often you do this
type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities. Wear protective
clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate
and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Al-
ways use NIOSH / OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure.
Direct particles away from face and body.
