WARNING:

  Ensure  that  the  power-supply  outlet  in  question  is  properly 

grounded. If you are not sure, have a licensed electrician check the outlet.

 

WARNING:

 Use proper circuit protection to avoid electrical hazards, fire 

hazards, or damage to the tool. 

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Use only crosscutting saw blades. 

When using the mitre saw to cut 

nonferrous metal, make sure the blade has a negative hook angle.

IMPORTANT: Do not use thin-kerf blades.

 Thin-kerf blades can deflect and 

contact the guard, which may cause injury to the operator.

Do not 

operate the Mitre Saw until it is completely assembled and installed 

according to these instructions.

If not 

thoroughly familiar with the operation of mitre saws, seek guidance 

from a supervisor, instructor, or other qualified person.

Always 

hold the workpiece firmly against the fence and table. Do not perform 

any operation freehand. Use a clamp or vise whenever possible

Keep hands 

out of the path of the saw blade. If holding the workpiece causes 

the hands to be within the “No-Hands” zone (3’’ (7.6 cm) away from the 

blade), the workpiece should be clamped in place before making the cut.

Be sure 

the blade is sharp, runs freely, and is free of vibrations.

Allow 

the motor to come to full speed before starting a cut.

Keep the motor’s air slots clean 

and free of chips or dust.

Always make sure 

all adjusting knobs are tightened before cutting, even if the 

table is positioned in one of the positive stops.
