6. Be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges (especially the installing
surface) or bolt. Damage to these parts could result in blade breakage.
7. Make sure that the turn base is properly secured so it will not move during
operation. Use the holes in the base to fasten the tool to a stable work
platform or bench. NEVER use tool where operator positioning would be
awkward.
8. Remove the chips, small pieces, etc. from the table top before operation for
your safety. Meanwhile, the chips, small pieces, etc. may cause damages to
the surface of the workpiece.
9. Do not perform any operation freehand. The workpiece must be secured
firmly against the turn base and guide fence with a vise during all operations.
Never use your hand to secure the workpiece.
10. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before
operation.
11. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the switch is turned on.
12. Be sure that the blade does not contact the turn base in the lowest position.
13. Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is
turned on.
14. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for
vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced
blade.
15. Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.
16. Hold the handle firmly during operation. Be aware that the saw moves up or
down slightly during start-up and stopping.
17. Stop operation immediately if anything abnormal be noted.
18. Do not attempt to lock the switch trigger in the ON position.
19. Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Do
not be lulled into a false sense of security. Blades are extremely unforgiving.
20. Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before moving workpiece or
changing settings.
21. Unplug tool before changing blade or servicing.
22. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid contact with any coasting blade. It can
still cause severe injury.
23. Always secure all moving portions before carrying the tool.
24. Do not abuse cord. Never yank cord to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, water and sharp objects.
25. Always attach the dust bag to the tool in operation.
26. NEVER stack workpieces on the table top to speed cutting operations. Cut only
one piece at a time.
27. Do not use this tool to cut materials excluding aluminum, wood or other similar
materials.
28. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent
dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
