WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from unex-
pected starting or electrical shock, do not plug the
power cord in until all assembly and alignment
steps are complete. The power cord must remain
unplugged whenever you are working on the saw.
1. Separate saw and all parts from packing materials
and check each one with the illustration and the "List
of Loose Parts" to make certain all items are
accounted for, before discarding any packing material.
WARNING: If any parts are missing, do not attempt
to assemble the band saw, plug in the power cord,
or turn the switch on until the missing parts are
obtained and are installed correctly.
2. Sometimes small parts get lost in packaging materials.
Do not throw away any packaging until your saw is put
together. Contact 1-800-4-RIDGID if any parts are
damaged or missing.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from unex-
pected saw or work movement, leveling feet must
be adjusted so that saw does not rock.
