● Do not cut metal workpieces
that must be hand held. Clamp
workpieces securely.
● Cut non-ferrous metals only if you
are under the supervision of an
experienced person and the dust
bag has been removed from the
saw.
WHEN SAW IS RUNNING
Do not allow familiarity from
frequent use of your miter saw
to result in a careless mistake. A
careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury.
Before cutting, if the saw makes an
unfamiliar noise or vibrates, stop
immediately. Turn the saw OFF.
Unplug the saw. Do not restart until
finding and correcting the problem.
BODY AND HAND POSITION (FIG.
CC)
Never place hands near
the cutting area. Proper
positioning of your body
and hands when operating the miter
saw will make cutting easier and
safer. Keep children away. Keep all
visitors at a safe distance from the
miter saw. Make sure bystanders
are clear of the saw and workpiece.
Don’t force the saw. It will do the job
better and safer at its designed rate.

from the path of the blade – out of
