SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Be aware of general power tool safety. Make sure all
the safety rules are understood.
• Disconnect the machine from power source whenever
adjusting or replacing any parts.
• Do not plug in unless switch is in “OFF” position.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts.
• Ware eye protection or face shield during operation.
• Make sure all guards are attached and securely
fastened. Keep saw and blade guards in proper
working condition.
• Make sure all the mobile parts move freely and are free
from interference.
• Keep blades shaft, aligned and properly attached.

the machine.
• Make sure the bevel angle lock knob is tightened.
• Make sure the fence is locked and is parallel to the
miter gauge groove.
• Never turn the machine “ON” with the workpiece
contacting the blade.
• Do not force cut. Slowing or stalling will overheat motor.
• Do not perform a workpiece that is warped, contains
knobs, or is embedded with foreign objects (nails,
staples, etc) to prevent kickback.
• Do not allow anyone to stand or cross in line of blade
rotation.

OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Refer to Figure 18
• The table saw has an overload protection installed next
to the main power switch. The overload protection
protects the motor unit by shutting off the power supply
when excessive electric current is detected. If the
overload protection is tripped, the table saw will not
power on.
• Before reset of overload protection, check motor,
switch and line connection for short circuit or faulty
components.
• To reset the overload protection, turn the switch to
“OFF” position. Then press the overload protection
button next to the main switch.
