SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Page 7
This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz.
A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and
the motor will overheat. If the tool does not operate when
plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.
Use a proper extension cord. Make sure extension cords
are in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use a cord that is heavy enough to carry the drawn
current needed by the saw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
The table below shows the correct size to use, depending
on the cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
Be sure extension cords are properly wired and in good
condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord
or have it repaired by a qualied technician before using it.
Protect extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat,
and damp or wet areas.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
This miter saw has a built-in laser guide. This is a class II
laser that emits a maximum output power 635nm 1mW
wavelengths. Do not stare into the beam when using laser
guide.
LASERS
WARNING: Do not permit ngers to touch the
terminal or the plug when installing or removing the plug
from an outlet.
WARNING: To avoid electrical hazards, re hazards,
WARNING: Keep the extension cord clear of the
working area. Positon the cord so that it will not get caught
on lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working
with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING: Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use tool with
a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could
cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
WARNING: LASER LIGHT. LASER RADIATION.
Avoid direct eye exposure. Do not stare into the beam. Only
turn the laser beam on when the laser will shine on a work
piece.
WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or
performance of procedures other than those specied in
this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
CAUTION: The following label is afxed to your tool.
It indicates the location from which the saw emits the laser
light. Be aware of the laser light location when using the
tool. Always make sure that any bystanders in the vicinity
of use are made aware of the dangers of looking directly
into the laser.

Use a separate electrical circuit for power tools. This circuit
must not be less than #14 wire with a 15 Amp time delayed
fuse, and should be protected with a time delayed fuse.
Before connecting the tool to the power line, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated
the same as the current stamped on the motor’s nameplate.
Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
