RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)
• USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition. Use
only a cord 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. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least
14 is recommended for an extension cord 25 feet
or less in length• If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.
• BEFORE MOUNTING, DISCONNECTING OR
REMOUNTING THE MOTOR; unplug the saw and
remove the switch key.
_1= WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other
parts may create a hazard or cause product
damage.
• AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure switch •
is off when plugging in.
• REMOVE WRENCHES AND ADJUSTING KEYS.
Get in the habit of checking - before turning on tool
- that hex keys and adjusting wrenches are re- •
moved from tool.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before using the tool
again, check any damaged parts, including guards,
for proper operation and performance. Check
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, saw stability, mounting and any
other condttuonsthat may affect its operation. A
damaged part must be properly repaired or re-
placed by a qualified service technician at a Sears
store or repair center to avoid risk of personal
injury.
• USE ONLY CORRECT BLADES. Use the right
blade size, style and cutting speed for the material
and the type of cut. Blade teeth should point down
toward the front of the table.
• USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Using
improper accessories may risk injury.
• USE ONLY SEARS REPLACEMENT PARTS. All
repairs, whether electrical or mechanical, should
be made by a qualified service technician at a
Sears store or repair center.
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working
order. This includes the blade guard, riving knife,
and anti-kickback pawls•
• CHECK DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a
blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of
the blade or cutter only.
• DISCONNECT ALL TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing attachments,
blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be
disconnected from power supply•
• DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for which it was
designed.
• NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN THE POWER OFF. Do not leave tool until it
comes to a complete stop.
NEVER USE THIS TOOL IN AN EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERE. Normal sparking of the motor
could ignite fumes•
MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE
LIGHTING to see the work and that no obstruc-
tions will interfere with safe operation BEFORE
performing any work using this tool.
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT
TURN IT ON AND OFF. Have defective switches
replaced by a qualified service technician at a
Sears store or repair center•
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK by
preventing body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator
enclosures.
• GROUND ALL TOOLS. See Electrical page.
• WEAR A DUST MASK to keep from inhalingfine
particles.
• PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of operation.
• DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR
ANY MEDICATION.
STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch
what you are doing and use common sense. Do
not operate tool when you are tired. Do not
rush.
AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your
hand to move into the blade. ALWAYS make sure
you have good balance.
ALWAYS SUPPORT LARGE WORK PIECES
while cutting to minimize risk of blade pinching and
kickback• Saw may slip, walk or slide while cutting
large or heavy boards.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback can
occur when the blade stalls, driving the work piece
back toward the operator. It can pull your hand into
the blade, resulting in serious personal injury. Stay
out of the blade path and turn switch off immedi-
ately if blade binds or stalls.
USE A SUPPORT FOR THE SIDES AND BACK
OF THE SAW TABLE when sawing wide or long
workpieces. Use a sturdy "outrigger" support ifa
table extension is more than 24 inches long and is
attached to the saw, to prevent tipping.
