Double Insulation

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layersof electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the tool's electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.

NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating

this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible

electrical insulation failure within the tool. i_CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS. Repair or

replace damaged cords.

Polarized Plugs

Polarized plugs (one blade is wider than the other) are used on equipment to reduce the risk of electric shock. When provided, this plug will fit in the 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.

Additional Safety Rules For Miter Saws

AWARNING: Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your saw) to replace safety rules. Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

• DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is completely assembled and installed according to the instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled can cause serious injury.

• OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or another qualified person if you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of this machine. Knowledge is safety.

• STABILITY. Make sure the miter saw is placed on a secure supporting surface and does not

slip or move during use. ff the mobility kit is installed, raise the moveable caster(s) so saw is in its stationary position.

• FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended electrical connections to prevent shock

or electrocution. Protect electric supply line with at least a 15 ampere time-delay fuse or a circuit breaker."

• MAKE CERTAIN the blade rotates in the correct direction. The teeth on the blade should

point in the direction of rotation as marked on the saw.

• TIGHTEN ALL CLAMP HANDLES, knobs and levers prior to operation. Loose clamps can

cause parts or the workpiece to be thrown at high speeds.

• BE SURE all blade and blade clamps are clean, recessed sides of blade clamps are against

blade and arbor screw is tightened securely. Loose or improper blade clamping may result in damage to the saw and possible personal injury.

• ALWAYS USE A SHARP BLADE. Check the blade to see if it runs true and is free from vibration. A dull or a vibrating blade can cause damage to the machine and/or serious

injury.

• DO NOT OPERATE ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE DESIGNATED VOLTAGE for the

saw. Overheating, damage to the tool and personal injury may occur.

• DO NOT WEDGE ANYTHING AGAINST THE FAN to hold the motor shaft. Damage to tool

and possible personal injury may occur.

• DO NOT force cutting action. Stalling or partial stalling of motor can cause damage. To the

machine or blade and/or serious injury.

• ALLOW THE MOTOR TO COME TO FULL SPEED prior to starting cut. Starting the cut too

soon may cause damage to the machine or blade and/or serious injury.

• NEVER CUT FERROUS METALS (Those with any iron or steel content) or masonry. Either

of these can cause the carbide tips to fly off the blade at high speeds causing serious injury.

• DO NOT USE ABRASIVE WHEELS. The excessive heat and abrasive particles generated

by them may damage the saw and cause personal injury.

• NEVER have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade. Personal injury will

occur.

• NEVER apply blade lubricant to a running blade. Applying lubricant could cause your hand to move into the blade resulting in serious injury.

• DO NOTplace either hand in the blade area when the saw is connected to the power source. Inadvertent blade activation may result in serious injury.

• DO NOT PERFORM FREE-HAND OPERATIONS (workpiece not supported by table and fence). Hold the work firmly against the fence and table. Free-hand operations on a miter saw

could cause the workpiece to be thrown at high speeds, causing serious injury.

• NEVER REACH AROUND or behind the saw blade. A blade can cause serious injury.

• DO NOT reach underneath the saw unless it is unplugged and turned off. Contact with saw

blade may cause personal injury.

• SECURE THE MACHINE TO A STABLE SUPPORTING SURFACE. Vibration can possibly

cause the machine to slide, walk or tip over, causing serious injury.

• USE ONLY CROSSCUT SAW BLADES recommended for miter saws. For best results, do

not use carbide tipped blades with hook angles in excess of 7 degrees. Do not use blades

with deep gullets. These can deflect and contact the guard, and can cause damage to the

machine and/or serious injury.

• USE ONLY BLADES OFTHE CORRECT SIZE AND TYPE specified for this tool to prevent

damage to the machine and/or serious injury.

• INSPECT BLADE FOR CRACKS or other damage prior to operation. A cracked or damaged

blade can come apart and pieces can be thrown at high speeds, causing serious injury.

Replace cracked or damaged blades immediately.

• CLEAN THE BLADE AND BLADE CLAMPS prior to operation. Cleaning the blade and

blade clamps allows you to check for any damage to the blade or blade clamps. A cracked or damaged blade or blade clamp can come apart and pieces can be thrown at high speeds, causing serious injury.

• DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or aerosol) in the vicinity of the

plastic guard. The polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certain chemicals.

• ALWAYS USE THE KERF PLATE AND REPLACE THIS PLATE WHEN DAMAGED. Small

chip accumulation under the saw may interfere with the saw blade or may cause instability of

workpiece when cutting.

• USE ONLY BLADE CLAMPS specified for this tool to prevent damage to the machine and/

or serious injury.

• CLEAN THE MOTOR AIR SLOTS of chips and sawdust. Clogged motor air slots can cause the machine to overheat, damaging the machine and possibly causing a short which could

cause serious injury.

• KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from the blade to prevent severe cuts. Clamp

all workpieces that would cause your hand to be within 6" (152 mm) of the saw blade.

• NEVER LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE "ON"position. Severe personal injury may result.

• TURN OFF THE MACHINE and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before raising

the arm and prior to cleaning the blade area, removing debris in the path of the blade, before

servicing or adjusting tooL A moving blade can cause serious injury.

• PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE WORKPIECES. Loss of con#ol of the workpiece can cause inju_

• NEVER cross arms in front of blade while using tool Always make a dry run (unpowered)

before making a finisl_ cut so that you can check tim patt_ of the blade or severe personal thjury may result.
