Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the
workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving
blade can be thrown with high speed.
Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple workpieces cannot be adequately
clamped or braced and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
Ensure the miter saw is mounted or placed on a level, rm work surface before use. A
level and rm work surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becoming unstable.
Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or miter angle setting, make sure the
adjustable fence is set correctly to support the workpiece and will not interfere with
the blade or the guarding system. Without turning the tool "ON" and with no workpiece on
the table, move the saw blade through a complete simulated cut to assure there will be no
interference or danger of cutting the fence.
Provide adequate support such as table extensions, sawhorses, etc. for a workpiece
that is wider or longer than the table-top. Workpieces longer or wider than the miter saw
table can tip if not securely supported. If the cut-o󰀨 piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the lower
guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension or as additional
support. Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to
shift during the cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.
The cut-o󰀨 piece must not be jammed or pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade. If conned, i.e. using length stops, the cut-o󰀨 piece could get wedged against the
blade and thrown violently.
Always use a clamp or a xture designed to properly support round material such as
rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and
pull the work with your hand into the blade.
Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of
the workpiece being thrown.
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the miter saw o󰀨. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery
pack. Then work to free the jammed material. Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece
could cause loss of control or damage to the miter saw.
After nishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw head down and wait for the
blade to stop before removing the cut-o󰀨 piece. Reaching with your hand near the coasting
blade is dangerous.
Hold the handle rmly when making an incomplete cut or when releasing the switch
before the saw head is completely in the down position. The braking action of the saw
may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.
Do not use this saw to cut tree limbs or logs.
Never use blades recommended for operation at less than 5000
RPM.
Do not use this saw to cut ber cement board. This saw is not intended to cut ber cement
boards.
