SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP
Power tool use and care
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. Use the power tool, accessories and blades
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.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Biscuit Plate Joiner Safety Warnings
1. DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting
area and the blade. Keep your second hand on
auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands
are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
2. Disc cutters must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool. Disc cutters running
over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
3. Always use the guard. The guard protects the
operator from broken disc cutter fragments and
unintentional contact with the disc cutter.
4. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
5. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
6. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
7. When using a handheld power tool,
maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands to resist starting torque.
8. Do not depress the spindle lock when
starting or during operation.
9. Do not leave the tool unattended when it is
plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn off the tool,
and unplug it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
10. This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach of children.
11. Never hold piece being cut in your hands
or across your leg. Secure the workpiece
to a stable platform. It is important to
support the work properly to minimize body
exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
12. Always use blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbor holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of
the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
