Safety Instructions For Table Saw (continued)

• Find and read all the warning labels found on the saw (shown below).

When Installing Or Moving The Saw

Before Each Use

Reduce the Risk of Dangerous
Environment.

• Use the saw in a dry, indoor place

protected from rain.

• Keep work area well lighted.

• Use recommended accessories.

Consult the owner’s manual for
recommended accessories. The use
of improper accessories may cause
risk of injury to persons.

To reduce the risk of injury from
unexpected saw movement.

• Bolt or clamp the saw to firm level

surface where there is plenty of room
to handle and properly support the
workpiece (See “Assembly-Mounting
Your Saw” section).

• Support the saw so the table is level

and the saw does not rock.

• When using a table extension longer

than 12" attached to any side of the
saw, bolt the saw to a stationary
surface or prop up the outer end of
the extension from the floor or bench
top to keep the saw from tipping.

• Put the saw where neither operator

nor bystanders must stand in line with
the sawblade.

• To reduce the risk of injury from

electrical shock, make sure your
fingers do not touch the plug’s metal
prongs when plugging in or
unplugging the saw.

• Never Stand On Tool. Serious injury

could occur if the tool tips or you
accidentally hit the cutting tool. Do not
store anything above or near the tool
where anyone might stand on the tool
to reach them.

Inspect your saw.

• To reduce the risk of injury from

accidental starting, turn the switch off,
unplug the saw, and remove the
switch key before raising or removing

the guard, changing the cutting tool,
changing the setup, or adjusting
anything. Make sure switch is in OFF
position before plugging in.
