GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
Read, understand and follow all safety rules and operang instrucons in
this manual before using this product. Failure to follow all instrucons list-
ed below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THIS INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
• Always keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluered benches and dark areas
invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operang a power tool. Dis-
tracons can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges &
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock. If operang the power tool in damp
locaons is unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be used to
supply the power to your tool. Use Electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear to
further enhance your personal safety in damp condions.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool or to pull the
plug. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Contact
Customer Service if cord is damaged and do not use the saw. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”. Any tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Depending upon use, the switch may not last the life of the saw. If the
switch should fail in the “OFF” position, the saw may not start. If it should
fail while the saw is running, the saw may not shut off. If either occurs, un-
plug the saw immediately and do not use until repaired. Contact Customer
Service.
When operating a power tool outside, always use an outdoor extension cord
with a minimum 13 amperes fuse. These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock. For recommended sizes of extension cords
refer to the following table.

PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operat-
ing power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep handles dry, clean
and free from oil & grease. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recom-
mended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
• Avoid accidental starting. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in tools that have the switch in the “ON” position invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before switching the tool “ON”. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result
in personal injury.
• Don’t overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper foot-
ing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Always use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the work
piece to a stable platform. Holding the material in your hand or against your
body is dangerous and may lead to loss of control. Hold the tool firmly to
prevent loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”. Any tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any inspections,
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools in a dry place lock up, out of reach of children and other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are eas-
ier to control. Any alteration or modification is a misuse and may result in a
dangerous condition.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, con-
tact Customer Service before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools. Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool.
Contact Customer Service to have defective switches replaced. Keep handles
dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
• While operating, always keep the cord away from the cutting area.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of
injury. Contact Customer Service for information for repairs.
• When servicing a tool, always use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthor-
ized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk
of electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
PLEASE NOTE! DO NOT TOUCH ANY MOVING PARTS WHEN THE
MACHINE IS RUNNING.
DANGER! KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA AND BLADE.
• Always keep one hand on the auxiliary handle and the other on the motor
housing. When both hands are holding the saw (machine), they cannot be
cut by the blades. Keep your body positioned to either side of the saw blade,
but not in line with the saw blade. Hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control. Do not reach underneath the material being cut. The guard cannot
protect you from the blade below the material. Do not attempt to remove
cut material when blade is moving. Always check that lower guard properly
closes before each use. Do not operate saw if lower guard does not move
freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open
position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the
lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and
does not touch the blade or any other part. In all angles and depths of cut
check the operation and condition of the lower guard spring. If the guard
