SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
MITER SAWS
• Miter saws are intended to cut wood
or wood-like products, they cannot
be used with abrasive cut-off wheels
for cutting ferrous material such as
bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust
causes moving parts such as the lower
guard to jam. Sparks from abrasive
cutting will burn the lower guard, the
kerf insert and other plastic parts.
• Use clamps to support the workpiece
whenever possible. If supporting the
workpiece by hand, you must always
keep your hand at least 100 mm from
either side of the saw blade. Do not
use this saw to cut pieces that are
too small to be securely clamped or
held by hand. If your hand is placed
too close to the saw blade, there is
an increased risk of injury from blade
contact.
• The workpiece must be stationary
and clamped or held against both the
fence and the table. Do not feed
the workpiece into the blade or cut
"freehand" in any way. Unrestrained
or moving workpieces could be thrown
at high speeds, causing injury.
WARNING
!
tool. Carrying power tools with your
nger on the switch or energizing
power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and
off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of
the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check
for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits, etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking
into account the working
conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualied repair person using
only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
People with electronic devices, such
as pacemakers, should consult their
physician(s) before using this product.
Operation of electrical equipment in
close proximity to a heart pacemaker
could cause interference or failure of
the pacemaker.
