Work Area
'Keep Your Work Area Cleon ond Well L¡¡.
'Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
'Do .not operale power tools in explosive olmospheres, such as in rhe presence of flommoble liquids, goses,
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
'Keep byslanders, ch¡ldren, ond visitors away while operaling a power too/. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
Electrical Safetv
' Grounded lools must be plugged inlo on outlel properly inslolled ond grounded ¡n accordance wilh oll
codes ond ord¡nonces. Never remove lhe grounding prong or modify the plug in ony way. Do not use ony
adopter plugs Check wilh a qualified eleclrician if you are in doubt os lo whether lhe ouÍlel is properly
grounded.lf the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance
path to carry electricity away from the user.
'Avoid body contoctwith grounded surfoces such as pipes, rodiolors, ronges ond re{rigerolors. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
'Don'l expose power lools Ío rain or wel condifions. Water entering a power toolwill increase the risk of
electric shock.
'Do nol abuse lhe cord. Never use lhe cord lo corry lhe Íools or pull the plug from on ouilet. Keep cord
away from heol, oì1, sharp edges or moving porls. Replace damaged cords immediately, Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
'When operoling o power tool oulside, use on ouldoor exlension cord morked "W-A" or "W." These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
(Note) 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.
The recommended minimum is a 12 gauge extension cord not exceeding 50 feet.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW WHILE SAWING
Select the correct saw blade appropriate to the material being cut. (mild steel, stainless steel or aluminum)
The material surface should be clean and level, free from rust, dirt, scale, and other debris.
Material may become heat treated if flame cut. Always avoid cutting near these areas whenever possible.
Adjust the base plate to the desired bevel angle by loosening and then re-tightening the Bevel Lever Lock
(item# 93) at front of saw and the Rear Bevel Lock at rear of saw.
When making long, straight cuts in sheet stock, insert the edge guide to the desired width and secure with
thumb screws (item# 73), or use the electronic Laser Guide.
Adjust to the proper depth of cut by loosening and re-tightening the rear Lever Lock (item# 93) at rear of saw.
ln most cases, depth should be set at maximum unless there are obstructions below the work surface, Depth
can be set by observing index marks printed on housing along depth bracket.
Connect machine to power source.
Firmly grasp guide handle and trigger handle switch (item# 82 and 83).
Position saw base plate on work surface near the cutting area.
While observing Cautions and Warnings above, turn on the Laser On/Off switch. lf Laser does not
turn on, check batteries. (Note: Laser is not required for saw operation.)
When ready, start saw motor by activating trigger switch (item# 83).
Slowly approach material edge and gently apply pressure until saw blade has established a cutting groove in the
material.
Apply smooth, constant pressure without over-loading saw motor.
A wARNrNc!
IF SAW MOTOR SHOULD STALL OR STOP BEFORE A COMPLETE CUT IS MADE ALWAYS REMOVE BLADE FROM
MATERIAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RESTART MOTOR. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
AFTER COMPLETING THE CUT
1. After the cut, release trigger switch to the "OFF" position.
2. When saw motor completely stops, place saw on secure and level surface.
3. Turn Laser On/Off switch to Off position.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES (continued)
CAUSES AND OPERATOR PREVENTION OF KICKBACK
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade,
causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the oper-
ator. When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf (saw cut) closing
down, the blade stalls and the motor
reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator. lf the blade becomes
twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig
into the top surface of the material causing the blade to climb out of the kerf and
jump back toward operator. Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precau-
tions as given below:
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm
to allow you to resist KICKBACK forces. KICKBACK forces can be controlled by
the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the
trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or KICKBACK may occur. lnvestigate and
take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf and
check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. lf saw blade is binding,
it may walk up or KICKBACK from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
Support large
Large
panels tend to
panel on both
panels to minimize the risk of blade pinching and KICKBACK.
Do not use dull or
ke rf
causing excessive
sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the
sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
damaged blade. Dull or improperly set blades produce narrow
friction, blade binding and KICKBACK.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before
making a cut. lf blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and
KICKBACK.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES (continued)
- DANGER! - Keep hands and body away from and to the side of the blade. Contact with blade will result in
serious injury.
- WARNING! - To reduce the risk of injury, check lower guard. lt must close instantly! Hold saw with both
hands. Support and clamp work. Wear eye protection.
Additional Soecific Safetv Rules:
DANGERI Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. lf both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
.Keep your body positioned to either side of the saw blade, but not in line with the saw blade. KICKBACK could
cause the saw to jump backwards. (See "Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback.")
.Do not reach underneath the work. The guard can not protect you from the blade below the work.
.Check lower guard for proper closing 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. lf saw is accidentally dropped,
lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard 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. lf the guard and the spring are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged pads, gummy
deposits, or a buildup of debris.
.Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An
unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of
the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released.
.NEVER hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. lt is important to support the work properly to
minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
.Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
.When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the
chance for blade binding.
.Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond vs. round) arbor holes. Blades that do not match the
mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
.Never use damaged or incorrect blade washer or bolts. The blade washer and bolt were specially designed
for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation'
