3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Prepare a wooden workbench (Fig. 1)
Since the saw blade will extend beyond the lower
surface of the lumber, place the lumber on the
workbench prior to cutting. If a square block is
utilized as the workbench, adjust leveling to ensure
that it is properly stabilized. An unstable workbench
will result in hazardous operation.
CAUTION
To avoid possible accident, remains always ensure
that the portion of workpiece after cutting is securely
anchored or held in position.
5. Protective glasses and dustproof mask
When you use the tool, make certain that you wear
the protective glasses and the dustproof mask.
6. Dust bag, or dust guide
Make it absolutely sure when you use the tool to
mount any one of the dust bag or dust guide that
is provided as a standard accessory. For mounting
details, refer to [use of dust bag], and [use of dust
guide].
ADJUSTING THE SAW PRIOR TO USE
