SAFETY GUIDELINES SAFETY GUIDELINES
• Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if something unintentionally comes into contact with
the cutting tool.
• Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine whether 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 should be properly
repaired or replaced.
• Direction of feed. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or
cutter only.
• Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS
• When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
• Polarized Plugs: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, double-insulated tools are
equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit into the outlet properly, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in
any way.
• Double insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded
power cord and grounded power supply system. This compound mitre saw is a double-insulated
tool.
• Before plugging in the tool, BE SURE that the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage
marked on the tool’s data plate. DO NOT use “AC only” rated tools with a DC power supply.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions and do not use power tools in wet
or damp locations. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. This tool is
intended for indoor use only.
• If operating a power tool in damp locations is unavoidable, ALWAYS USE a power supply for
your tool that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter. ALWAYS WEAR electrician’s
rubber gloves and footwear in damp conditions.
• Inspect tool cords for damage. Have damaged tool cords repaired by a qualied person. BE
SURE to stay constantly aware of the cord location, and keep it well away from the moving blade.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• Use proper extension cord. 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. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING!
Do not permit fingers to touch the terminal or plug when installing or removing the plug from an
outlet.
WARNING!
For your own safety, read the Instruction Manual before operating the mitre saw.
WARNING!
Double insulation DOES NOT take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool.
