READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
■ KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the
operator's manual carefully. Learn the saw's
applications and limitations as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this tool.
■ GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY
PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH
GROUNDED SURFACES. For example; pipes,
radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
■ KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working
order.
■ REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES. Get in the habit of checking to see
that hex keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from tool before turning on saw.
■ KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered
work areas and work benches invite accidents.
DO NOT leave tools or pieces of wood on the
saw while it is in operation.
■ DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRON-
MENTS. Do not use power tools near gasoline or
other flammable liquids, in damp or wet loca-
tions, or expose them to rain. Keep the work
area well lit.
■ KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All
visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept a
safe distance from work area. Do not let visitors
contact tool while operating.
■ MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with
padlocks and master switches, or by removing
starter keys.
■ DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
■ USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force the tool or
attachment to do a job it was not designed for.
Don't use it for a purpose not intended.
■ USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD FOR
CHARGER. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. A wire gage size
(A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended for an
extension cord 25 feet or less in length. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.
■ PERIODICALLY INSPECT EXTENSION
CORDS and replace if damaged.
■ DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry.
They can get caught and draw you into moving
parts. Rubber gloves and nonslip footwear are
recommended when working outdoors. Also wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
■ ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WITH
SIDE SHIELDS. Everyday eyeglasses have only
impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety
glasses.
■ PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or dust
mask if the cutting operation is dusty.
■ PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of operation.
■ SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
■ DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
■ MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools
sharp and clean for better and safer perfor-
mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories.
■ DISCONNECT ALL TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing attachments,
blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be
disconnected or battery pack removed.
■ AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure
switch is in the locked or off position before
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack
into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.
■ USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use
of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.
Refer to this operator's manual for recommended
accessories.
■ NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the blade is unin-
tentionally contacted.
■ CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use
of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged must be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center to avoid risk of
personal injury.
