PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP
This machine should be installed and operated only on a
solid, flat and stable floor that is able to support the
weight of the saw (495 lbs - 225 kgs) and the operator.
Using the dimensions shown beside as a guideline, plan
for placement within your shop that will allow the opera-
tor to work unencumbered and unobstructed by foot traf-
fic (either passing shop visitors or other shop workers) or
other tools or machinery.
ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE
For shops with frequent visitors or multiple operators, it is
advisable to establish a safety zone around shop
machinery. A clearly defined “no-go” zone on the floor
around each machine can help avoid accidents that
could cause injury to either the operator or the shop visitor. It is advisable to take a few moments to either paint
(using non-slip paint) or using tape, define on the floor the limits or perimeter of each machines safety zone. Take
steps to ensure that all operators and shop visitors are aware that these areas are off limits whenever a machine is
running for everyone but the individual operating the unit.
THIS MODEL 350R 10" TILTING ARBOR SAW IS VERY HEAVY. DO NOT OVER-EXERT. A HOIST OR FORKLIFT SHOULD BE USED TO LIFT
THIS MACHINE.
TO LIMIT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE, ANY EQUIPMENT USED TO LIFT THIS MACHINE SHOULD HAVE
A RATED CAPACITY IN EXCESS OF 495 LBS (225 KGS).

CLEAN UP
The protective coating on the saw table prevents rust from
forming during shipping and storage. Remove it by rub-
bing with a rag dipped in kerosene, mineral spirits or
paint thinner. (Dispose of potentially flammable solvent-
soaked rags according to manufacturer’s safety recom-
mendations.)
A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the surface,
may also be used to scrape off the coating followed by
clean-up with solvent. Avoid rubbing the saw’s painted
surfaces, as many solvent-based products will remove
paint.
To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax or use
regular applications of any after-market surface protec-
tant or rust inhibitor.
Tip: With a screw driver, push a solvent-saturated rag into
the T-slots to remove the grease.
