Safety Instructions
Read and follow all safety instructions.
Personal Safety Instructions
1. Wear safety goggles labeled "ANSI
Z87.1" on the package. It means the goggles
meet impact standards set by the American
National Standards Institute. Regular eye-
glasses are not safety goggles.
2. Wear close fitting clothes, short sleeved
shirts, and non-slip shoes. Tie up long hair.
Do not wear gloves, ties, jewelry, loose
clothing, or long sleeves. These can get
caught in the spinning blade and pull body
parts into the blade.

fine particles.
4. Wear ear protectors, plugs or muffs if you
use saw daily.
5. Keep good footing and balance; do not
over-reach.

work area; they could be hit by a thrown
workpiece, workpiece chips or pieces of

unplug before leaving work area. Do not
leave until blade has stopped spinning.

low key to prevent accidental start-up; store

wax and other slippery materials.

tered.
