GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND HAZARD SYMBOLS
In order to prevent injury, the following safety precautions and symbols should be followed at all times!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS read the Owner’s Manual before operating the machine.
ALWAYS keep the Shroud in place.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from
the power tool before it is turned on.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN
Cluttered work areas and benches invite accidents.
DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS PLACES
DO NOT use power tools in damp or wet locations nor expose them to rain. Always
keep the work area well lighted.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY
All visitors and children should be kept a safe distance from work area.

MK-SDG-7 SAFETY
MAKE THE WORKSHOP KID PROOF
Make the workshops kid proof by using padlocks, master switches or by removing starter
keys.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL
A power tool will do a job better and safer operating at the rate for which it was designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
DO NOT force a tool or an attachment, to do a job that it was not designed to do.
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
If using an extension cord make sure it is in good condition first. 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 that will result in a loss of power and
overheating. TABLE 1, Page 10 shows the correct AWG size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.
USE PROPER APPAREL
DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may
be caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair.
ALWAYS wear approved eye protection.
ALWAYS wear approved respiratory protection.
ALWAYS use hearing protection.
SECURE WORK
Clamps or a vise should be used to hold work whenever practical. Keeping your
hands free to operate a power tool is safer.
DO NOT OVERREACH
Keep proper footing and balance at all times by not overreaching.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools clean for the best and safest performance. Always follow maintenance
instructions for lubricating, and when changing accessories.

DISCONNECT TOOLS
Power tools should always be disconnected before servicing or when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
ON / OFF
ALWAYS place the power ON/OFF switch in the OFF position when the saw is not in use.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. Using improper accessories
may increase the risk of personal or by-stander injury.
NEVER STAND ON THE TOOL
Serious injury could occur if a power tool is tipped, or if a cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS
Before using a power tool, check for damaged part. A guard or any other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine if would operate properly and perform
its intended function. Always check moving parts for proper alignment or binding. Check
for broken parts and mountings and all other conditions that may affect the operation of
the power tool. A guard, or any damaged part, should be properly repaired or replaced.
NEVER LEAVE A TOOL UNATTENDED
TURN POWER OFF - Do not leave a tool until it comes to a complete stop. Always
turn a power tool OFF when leaving the work area, or, when a cut is finished.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
NEVER touch electrical wires or components while the engine is running. They can be
sources of electrical shock which could cause severe injury or burns.
ROTATING PARTS
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury.
Never operate the motor with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.
OVER SPEED
NEVER tamper with the governor components or settings to increase the maximum
speed. Severe personal injury and damage to the engine or equipment can result if
operated at speeds above maximum.
DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN
DO NOT expose to rain or use in damp locations.

SILICA DUST WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials with silica in their composition
may give off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz,
brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial inhalation of
airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including silicosis. In addition, California and some other authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a substance
known to cause cancer. When cutting such materials, always follow respiratory precautions.
Use appropriate NIOSH-approved respiratory protection where dust hazard may occur. Paper masks
or surgical masks without a NIOSH approval number are not recommended because they do little to
protect the worker. For more information about respirator programs, including what respirators have
received NIOSH approval as safe and effective, please visit the NIOSH website at:
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/respirators
Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 C.F.R.§1910.134 and §1503.1).
Visit http://www.osha.gov for more information.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 MESSAGE
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contain chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead, from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber
For further information, consult the following sources:
http://www.osha.gov/dsg/topics/silicacrystalline/index.html
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/96-112/
http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/law/P65law72003.html
http://www.dir.ca.gov/Title8/sub4.html
Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to lter out microscopic particles. Where
use of a dust extraction device is possible, it should be used. To achieve a high level of dust collection, use an industrial vacuum cleaner.
WARNING
Sawing and drilling generate dust. Excessive airborne particles may cause irritation to eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. To avoid breathing impairment, always employ dust controls and protection suitable
to the material being sawed or drilled; See OSHA (29 CFR Part 1910.1200).
