and create potential fire hazards. Floors must be kept clean and free from oil, wax,
sawdust or other debris. Promote cleanliness and reduce accidents and fire hazards.

work environment. Do not use electrical machinery in damp or wet locations. Keep
machinery clear of the presence of highly combustible materials, dust, flammable
liquids, fumes, vapors and gases.

sleeves up above elbows when operating the saw.

USE SAFETY GLASSES. Eye protection is required at all times when using this

other cutting tools. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safe

handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Damaged parts should be inspected
before further use of the tool. Check alignment of all moving parts. Look for binding of
moving parts, breakage, mounting and any other condition that may affect machine
operation. Any part or guard that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
prior to further use.

DISCONNECT MACHINE. Make sure machine is unplugged from it’s power source
before servicing and when changing accessories, such as blades.
