 Select the correct saw blade for the material to be cut.
 Do not use saw blades manufactured from high speed steel.
 To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean.
 Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the maximum speed marked on the saw

blade.

 Do not cut metals such as nails and screws. Inspect for and remove all nails, screws and

other foreign matter from the workpiece before operation.

 Knock out any loose knots from workpiece BEFORE beginning to cut.

Don’t use the tool in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

 For your safety, remove the chips, small pieces, etc. from the work area and table top

before plugging the tool and starting operation.

 The operator is adequately trained in the use, adjustment and operation of the tool.
 Keep hands and make your bystander and yourself position out of path of and not in line

with saw blade. Avoid contact with any coasting blade. It can still cause severe injury and
never reach around saw blade.

 Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Don't be lulled into

(6) false sense of security. Blades are extremely unforgiving.

 Make sure the shaft lock is released before the switch is turned on.
 Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for (6) while. Watch for vibration or

wobbling that could indicate poor installation or (6) poorly balanced blade.

 Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.
 The tool should not be used for slotting, rabbetting or grooving.
 Retain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area

whilst the tool is running and the saw head is not in the rest position.

 Stop operation immediately if you notice anything abnormal.
 Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before moving workpiece or changing settings.
 Unplug tool before changing blade, servicing or not in use.
 Some dust created from operation contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects

or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

lead from lead-based-painted material and,

arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in (6) well ventilated area and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
 Connect the tool to (6) dust collecting device when sawing.
 Make sure that the table is securely fixed with the lever after turning it over.

6.2

When using in Mitre saw mode:

 Do not use the saw to cut other than wood, aluminum or similar materials.
 Do not perform operation freehand when cutting workpiece in an area close to saw blade.

The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn table and guide fence during all
operations.

 Make sure that the turn table is properly secured so it will not move during operation.
 Make sure that the arm is securely fixed when beveling. Tighten the lever clockwise to fix

the arm.

 Make sure the blade does not contact the turn table in the lowest position and is not

contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

 Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw moves up or down slightly during start-up and

stopping.
