– 3–
21. Extension cords. 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. Extension cord tables (refer to page 21)
how the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
s
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage numbers the heavier the cord.
22. Do not abuse cord. Never carry tool by cord or pull it to disconnect from receptacle, Keep cord from
heat, oil, and sharp edges.
23. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example, pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerator enclosures.
24.Outdoor use extension cords. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use
outdoors and so marked.
25. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.
26. Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any
medication.

The VX141MSPROR Masonry Saw is designed to cut
at any cutting. It can perform plunge cutting (table is
fixed and the cutting head is in motion), jam cutting
(cutting head is fixed and the table is in motion) or
step cutting (a combination of the both).
STEPS TO USE THE 45˚ / 90˚ RIP
GUIDE
1. Set the rip guide by positioning it on the
desired dimension and tighten the threaded
knob. Make sure that the rip guide is firmly
tightened to avoid slippage. The rip guide can
be used 90˚ rip cugts and 45˚ angle cuts from
both the left and right side. (Note: The
straight and 45˚ angled slits on the bottom of
the rip guide.)
2. After the rip guide is positioned for the
desired cut, place material flat against the rip
guide and the measurement rail. For the 45˚
rip cuts, place the corner of material in the
open slot of the measurement rail.
3. Simply line up the material being cut with the
appropriate pre-marked lines on the cutting
table.
4. Now you are ready to make your cut.
