WARNING:
Your saw should never be
connected to power supply when you are
assembling
parts, making adjustments,
assembling
or removing blades, cleaning, or
when not in use. Disconnecting
your saw will
prevent accidental starting that could cause
serious personal injury.

WARNING:
A 7-1/4 in. blade is the maximum
blade capacity of your saw. Never use a blade
that is too thick to allow outer blade washer to
engage with the flat on the spindle. Larger blades
will come in contact with the blade guards, while
thicker blades will prevent blade screw from
securing blade on spindle. Either of these
situations could result in a serious accident.
