WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemi-
cals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your ex
-
posure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
ALWAYS REMOVE THE RIP FENCE from the saw when
cross cutting.
� DO NOT USE THE MITER GAUGE AND RIP FENCE
during the same operation.
NEVER use rip fence as cutoff gauge when cross
cutting.
� NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first
turning the saw OFF and disconnecting the saw from the
power source.
� PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear and sides of
the saw table for wide or long work pieces. Use a sturdy
“outrigger” support if a table extension more than 24
inches long is attached to the saw.
� AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back toward you)
by:
a) Keeping blade sharp.
b) Keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
c) Keeping riving knife/spreader/splitter, anti-kickback
pawls, and blade guard in place and operating.
d) Not releasing the work before it is pushed all the
way past the saw blade using a push stick.
e) Not ripping work that is twisted or warped or does
not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
�� IF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED, it must
be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an authorized
service center to avoid risk.
AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand
to move into the cutting tool.
� USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed in
this manual or addendums. Use of accessories that are
not listed may cause the risk of personal injury. Instruc-
tions for safe use of accessories are included with the

� MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHTING
to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere with
safe operation BEFORE performing any work using the
table saw.
� ALWAYS TURN OFF SAW before disconnecting it, to
avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power
supply.
� THIS TOOL should have the following markings:
a) Wear eye protection.
b) Use saw blade guard and riving knife/spreader/
splitter for every operation for which it can be used,
including all through sawing.
c) Keep hands out of the line of saw blade.
