25.SECURELY MOUNT ACCESSORIES AND BLADES TO THE TOOL
MAIN BODY. Extra care must be taken when using tools on elevated
location (such as a roof ladder, scaffold, or the like) to prevent injury to
someone on a lower level in the event the tool and/or accessory should drop.
26. ALWAYS KEEP THE MOTOR AIR VENT FULLY OPENED. A constantly
open motor air vent is necessary to allow air to come in and out for cooling the
motor. Do not allow it to become clogged up, even if dust is blown through
it.
27.OPERATE POWER TOOLS AT THE RATED VOLTAGE. Operate power
tools at voltages specified on their nameplates.
28. NEVER TOUCH THE MOVING PARTS. Never touch the moving parts
such as blades, bits, cutters and others.
29. STOP OPERATION IMMEDIATELY IF ANY ABNORMALITY IS
DETECTED. Should a power tool be detected as out of order or should other
abnormalities be observed during operation, stop using the tool immediately.
30. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF.
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
31. CAREFULLY HANDLE POWER TOOLS. Should a power tool be dropped
or struck against hard materials inadvertently, it may be deformed, cracked,
or damaged.
32. DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT. Solvents such as
gasoline, thinner, benzine, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may damage and
crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with such solvents. Wipe plastic parts
with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy water.
33. W H E N REPLACING A COMPONENT PART, ADOPT THE SAME
TYPE. When replacing a component part with a new one, adopt the same
type of new part. Also, never attempt to repair a power tool yourself.
34. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN WORKING ORDER. Never wedge or
tie lower guard open. Check operation of lower guard before each use. Do
not use if lower guard dose not close briskly over saw blade.
CAUTION: If saw is dropped, lower guard may be bent, restricting full
return.
35. KEEP BLADES CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp blades minimize stalling and
kickback.
36. D A N G E R : KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep hands
away form blades. Do not reach underneath work while blade is rotating. Do
not attempt to remove cut material when blade is moving.
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off.
37-SUPPORT LARGE PANELS. Large panels must be supported as shown in
Fig. 1 to minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback. When cutting
operation requires the resting of saw on the work piece, the saw shall be
rested on the larger portion and the smaller piece cut off.
