SAFETY RULES

WARNING: For your own safety, read all of the instructions and
precautions before operating tool.
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
WARNING: Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood
products can expose you to wood dust, a substance known to the
State of California to cause cancer. Avoid inhaling wood dust or
use a dust mask or other safeguards for personal protection. For
more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/wood.
Your risk from these exposures vary, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to dust: work in a
well ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment.
Always wear OSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or
respirator when using such tools.
CAUTION: Always follow proper operating procedures as
defined in this manual - even if you are familiar with use of
this or similar tools. Remember that being careless for even a
fraction of a second can result in severe personal injury.
BE PREPARED FOR THE JOB
• Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, rings, bracelets or other jewelry which may get
caught in moving parts of machine.
• Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Wear safety shoes with non-slip soles.
• Wear face mask or dust mask if operation is dusty.
• Wear safety glasses complying with United States ANSI
Z87.1. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses.
They are NOT safety glasses.
• Be alert and think clearly. Never operate power tools
when tired, intoxicated or when taking medications
that cause drowsiness.
PREPARE WORK AREA FOR JOB
• Keep work area clean. Cluttered work areas invite
accidents.
• Do not use power tools in dangerous environments. Do not
use power tools in damp or wet locations. Do not expose
power tools to rain.
• Work area should be properly lighted.
• Keep visitors at a safe distance from work area.
• Keep children out of workplace. Make workshop childproof.
Use padlocks, master switches or remove switch keys to
prevent any unintentional use of power tools.
• Keep power cords from coming in contact with sharp
objects, oil, grease and hot surfaces.
TOOL SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
• Always unplug tool prior to inspection.
• Consult manual for specific maintaining and adjusting
procedures.
• Keep tool lubricated and clean for safest operation.
• Remove adjusting tools. Form habit of checking to see that
adjusting tools are removed before switching machine on.
• Keep all parts in working order. Check to determine that
the guard or other parts will operate properly and perform
their intended function.
• Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding, breakage, mounting and any other condition
that may affect a tool's operation.
• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced. Do not perform makeshift repairs.
(Use parts list provided to order replacement parts.)
• Maintain proper adjustment of rip fence and blade guard.
• Never adjust saw while running. Disconnect power to avoid
accidental start-up.
• Have damaged or worn power cords replaced immediately.
• Keep blade sharp for efficient and safest operation.
KNOW HOW TO USE THE TOOL
• Use right tool for the job. Do not force tool or attachment to
do a job for which it was not designed.
• Disconnect tool when changing blade.
• Avoid accidental start-up. Make sure that the tool is in the
"off" position before plugging in, turning on safety
disconnect or activating breakers.
• Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.
• Keep hands away from blade and moving parts and cutting
surfaces.
• Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power off
and do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance.
