Safety instructions for mitre saws

1. Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like
products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-
off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as
bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving
parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from
abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf
insert and other plastic parts.
2. Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand, you
must always keep your hand at least 100 mm from
either side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to
cut pieces that are too small to be securely
clamped or held by hand. If your hand is placed too
close to the saw blade, there is an increased risk of
injury from blade contact.
3. The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or
held against both the fence and the table. Do not
