Safety Instructions for Miter Saw
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your miter saw
works. Read this manual to understand this miter saw.
Reduce the Risk of Dangerous Environment:
•
Use the miter saw in a dry place protected from rain.
• Keep work area well lighted.
• Place the saw so neither the user nor bystanders are forced to stand in line with blade.
Thrown debris could injure people in it’s path.
To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected saw movement:
• Put the miter saw on a firm level surface where there is plenty of room for handling and properly
supporting the workpiece.
• Support the miter saw so the table is level and the saw does not rock.
• Bolt or clamp the miter saw to its support.
• For extra stability - Drill holes into your workbench to accommodate the rubber feet of the
Power Miter II Saw, or remove the feet and bolt your saw directly to your workbench.
• This saw is designed to cut soft metals (lead, zinc, brass, aluminum) and soft wood. It is not
designed to cut steel or thick materials.
