three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal

parts are isolated from internal metal motor

components with protecting insulation. Double

insulated tools do not need to be grounded.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the owner's

manual carefully. Learn the saw's applications and limitations as well as the specific potential

hazards related to this tool.

• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY

PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH GROUNDED SURFACES. For example; pipes,

radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.

• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working

order.

REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Get in the habit of checking to see

that hex keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning on saw

KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered work

areas and work benches invite accidents. DO

NOT leave tools or piecesof wood on the saw

while it is in operation.

DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRON-

MENTS. Do not use power tools near gasoline or otherflammable liquids,in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep the work area well

lit.

KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All visitors shoutd wear safety glasses and be kept a

safe distance from work area. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord while operating.

MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with pad- locks and master switches, or by removing starter

keys.

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job

better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force the tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for.

Don't use it for a purpose not intended.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)

USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.

When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your

product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power

and overheating. A wire gage size (A.WG.) of at

least 14 is recommended for an extension cord

25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the

heavier the cord.

INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODI- CALLY and replace if damaged.

DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing,

gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry. They can get caught and draw you into

moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonslip foot- wear are recommended when working outdoors.

Also wear protective hair covering to contain long • hair.

• ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WITH

SIDE SHIELDS. Everyday eyeglasses have only • impact-resistantlenses; they are NOT safety

glasses.

• PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or dust mask if the cutting operation is dusty. •

• PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing protectionduring extended periods of operation.

• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It's safer than using your

hand and it frees both hands to operate tool. _1,

• DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and

balance at a_Ltimes. •

• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools

sharp and clean for better and safer perfor- mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and •

changing accessories.

• DISCONNECT ALL TOOLS. When not in use,

before servicing, or when changing attachments, blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be

disconnected. •

• AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure

switch is off when plugging in.

• USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The

use of improper accessories may cause risk of

injury.

• NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the blade is

unintentionally contacted.

• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use

of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended

function. Check for alignment of moving parts,

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may

affect its operation. A guard or other part that is

damaged must be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified service technician at a Sears store

to avoid risk of personal injury.

NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT- TENDED. TURN THE POWER OFF. Do not leave tool untilitcomes to a complete stop.

FIRMLY CLAMP OR BOLT your miter saw to a

workbench or table at approximately hip height.

USE ONLY CORRECT BLADES. Do not use blades with incorrectsize holes. Never use blade

washers or blade bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade capacity of your

saw is 10 in.

KEEP BLADES CLEAN, SHARP AND WITH SUFFICIENT SET. Sharp blades minimize

stalling and kickback.

DO NOT REMOVE THE SAW'S BLADE GUARDS. Never operate the saw with any guard

or cover removed. Make sure all guards are operating properly before each use.

KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep hands away from blades. Do not reach

underneath work or around or under the blade whileblade is rotating. Do not attempt to remove

cut material whenblade is moving.

WARNING: Blade coasts after turn off.

DO NOT ABUSE CORD. Never yank cord to disconnect it from receptacle. Keep cord from

heat, oil, and sharp edges.

INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY and if damaged, have repaired by a qualifiedservice

technicianat a Sears store. Stay constantly aware of cord location and keep it well away

from the rotatingblade USE OUTDOOR EXTENSION CORDS. When

tool isused outdoors,use only extension cords with approvedground connectionthatare

intended for use outdoors and so marked.

DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT

TURN IT ON AND OFF. Have defective switches

replaced by a qualified service technician at a

Sears store.

KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND GREASE. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline,

petroleum-based products, or any solvents to clean tool.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)

ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES to

minimize risk of blade pinching and kickback, Saw may slip, walk, or slide while cutting long or

heavy boards. BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL

ADJUSTMENTS ARE SECURE. AVOID CUTTING NAILS. Inspect for and

remove all nails from lumber before cutting.

ALWAYS USE A CLAMP to secure the work-

piece when possible.

• NEVER TOUCH BLADE or other moving parts during use.

• NEVER START A TOOL WHEN THE BLADE IS IN CONTACT WITH WORKPIECE. Allow motor

to come up to full speed before starting cut.

• MAKE SURE THE MITER TABLE AND SAW

ARM (BEVEL FUNCTION) ARE LOCKED IN POSITION BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SAW.

Lock the miter table by securely tightening the miter lock handle. Lock the saw arm (bevel

function) by securely tightening the bevel lock knob.

NEVER USE A LENGTH STOP ON THE FREE SCRAP END OF A CLAMPED WORKPIECE.

NEVER hold onto or bind the free scrap end of the workpiece in any operation. If a work clamp

and length stop are used together, they must both be installed on the same side of the saw

table to prevent the saw from catching the loose end and kicking up

NEVER cut more than one piece at a time. DO

NOT STACK more than one workpiece on the

saw table at a time.

• NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION "FREE- HAND". Always place the workpiece to be cut on

the miter table and position it firmly against the

fence as a backstop. Always use the fence.

• NEVER hand hold a workpiece that is too small

to be clamped. Keep hands clear of the no hands zone.

NEVER reach behind, under, or within three

inches of the blade and its cutting path with your hands and fingers for any reason.

NEVER reach to pick up a workpiece, a piece of scrap, or anything else that is in or near the cutting path of the blade.

• AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND

POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause

your hand to move into the blade. ALWAYS

make sure you have good balance. NEVER

operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched position.

• NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.

• ALWAYS release the power switch and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising it out of

the workpiece.

• DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFF RAPIDLY. This could cause the saw blade

to loosen and could create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow the saw blade

to come to a complete stop. Disconnect your saw from the power supply and securely retighten the

blade bolt.

REPLACEMENT PARTS. Allrepairs, whether

electrical or mechanical, should be made by qualified service technician at a Sears store.

WARNING: When servicing use only identical

Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create ahazard or cause product

damage.

• NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMO-

SPHERE. Normal sparking of the motor could ignite fumes.

• NEVER leave the miter saw unattended while

connected to a power source.

• POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of

electric shock, this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other ) . This plug will fit in

a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still

does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

• IF ANY PART OF THIS MITER SAW IS MISS- ING or should break, bend, or fail in any way, or

should any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off the power switch, remove the miter saw plug from the power source and have

damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced before resuming operation.

• DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE UN- DER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL,

OR ANY MEDICATION.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)

• ALWAYS STAY ALERT! Do not allow familiarity 111 (gained from frequent use of your saw) to cause

a careless mistake. ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless fraction of a second issufficientto

inflictsevere injury. STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL.

Watch what you are doingand use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired,

Do not rush.
