RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
• Use only accessories recommended for this mitre saw. Follow instructions that
accompany accessories. Use of improper accessories may cause hazards.
• The use of any cutting tool except 10" saw blades which meet the requirements
under recommended accessories is prohibited. Do not use accessories such as
shaper cutters or dado sets. Ferrous metal cutting and the use of abrasive wheels is
prohibited.
ACCESSORIES
• To avoid the risk of personal injury, do not modify this power tool or use accessories
not recommended.
• Read warnings and conditions on your CARBIDE TIPPED SAW BLADE. Do not operate
the saw without the proper saw blade guard in place. Carbide is a very hard but brittle
material. Care should be taken while mounting, using, and storing carbide tipped
blades to prevent accidental damage. Slight shocks, such as striking the tip while
handling, can seriously damage the blade. Foreign objects in the workpiece, such as
wire or nails, can also cause tips to crack or break off. Before using, always visually
examine the blade and tips for bent blade, cracks, breakage, missing or loose tips, or
other damage. Do not use if damage is suspected. Failure to heed safety instructions
and warnings can result in serious bodily injury.
BLADE INFORMATION
• Always use a crosscut blade that is designed for cutting across the wood grain.
NEVER use Rip, Combination, Plywood, Dado or Abrasive type saw blades at
any time.
• Always use a 10" diameter blade with a 5/8" arbour hole. Speed rating must be at
least 3200 RPM.
• Read and understand all instructions provided with each blade before using on this
mitre saw.
• There are two main materials used for saw blades; high-speed steel (HSS) and carbide
tipped (TCT). While the HSS blades are generally less expensive than carbide tipped,
TCT blades will stay sharper longer than HSS. As a general rule the more teeth per
inch (TPI) the smoother the cut. Please read the information provided on the blade
for more details for their use.
