15.Never use the cable for purposes which it is not intended for. Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the power socket. Protect the cable form heat, oil and sharp edges.
16.Secure the workpiece, when necessary use clamping devices to secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thereby secured better than by hand.
17.Avoid taking abnormal stances. Make sure you stand securely and keep your balance at all times.
18.Look after your tool with care. Keep the cutting tool sharp and clean so that you are able to work better and safer with it. Observe the guidelines on lubrication and exchanging the tool. Check the power cable of the electric power tool regularly and in case of damage let a recognized specialist repair it. Check extension cables regularly and replace them if they are damaged. Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
19.Pull the plug out of the power socket when the electric power tool is not in use, before maintenance and when exchanging tools such as saw blades, drills and mills.
20.Do not leave keys in the device. Before you switch the device off, check that keys and setting tools have been removed.
21.Avoid starting-up the device accidentally. Make sure that when you insert the plug into the power socket, the power switch is turned off.
22.Use an extension cable when working outdoors. Only use extension cables outdoors which are authorized for outdoor use and are correspondingly marked.
23.Be attentive. Be careful what you do. Carry out your work sensibly.
24.Check the electric power tool for any sign of damage. Before continuing work with electric power tool, safety devices or easily damaged parts have to be carefully checked to ensure that they function properly and are not defective. Check that the moving parts are working properly and are not jammed, or whether the parts are damaged. All parts must be correctly assembled by an experienced individual, unless stated otherwise in the operating instructions, and meet all required conditions in order to guarantee that the electric power tool functions without a problem. Damaged switches have to be replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not use electric power tools if the power switch cannot be turned on and off.

II. General safety guidelines(continued)
25.WARNING!The use of other insertion tools and accessories can present a danger of injury to you.
26.Let a specialist electrician repair your electric power tool. This electric power tool corresponds to the applicable safety conditions. Repairs are only allowed to be carried out by a specialist electrician, using original replacement parts; otherwise accidents may occur.
27.No other people are allowed to stand in the direct vicinity of the machine when it is in use. People not operating the machine must maintain a suitable safe distance!
28.Never lay the power cable over the machine table!
29.Use the push rod to pass the workpiece safely into the saw blade! Do not come too close to the saw blade!
30.Make sure that the thickness of the material to be cut is less than the maximum possible cutting depth.
31.Never cut “hands-free”! The workpiece must always lie level on the machine table and be moved along the stop! The workpiece must always be pressed hard against the stop!
32.Never cut workpieces that are so small that they cannot be safety pressed against the stop and could turn!
33.Never cut workpieces that are so small that they cannot be moved by the push rod at a safe distance from the saw blade!
34.Only cut one workpiece at a time! Never cut several workpieces simultaneously! Workpiece are not allowed to be placed behind or on top of each other!
35.There is a danger of the workpiece “jamming” and slipping away!
36.Make sure that the workpiece cannot slip while cutting or get jammed in the saw blade!
37.Clean the working area and the workpiece after each cut.
Warning! Switch the device off, remove the plug from the power socket and let the machine come to a standstill! No foreign bodies are allowed to be on the workpiece or the machine table! Cut pieces of the workpiece can be caught by the rotating cutting disc and be flung away!
III. Electrical information

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord, or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must consist of not less than #12 wire with a 20 A time-delayed fuse or a #14 wire with a 15 A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING: THIS TABLE SAW IS INTENDED FOR INDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT EXPOSE
IT TO RAIN OR USE IT IN DAMP LOCATIONS.
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one that is heavy enough to carry the current that your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, which will result in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. When in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
