PLAN YOUR CUT:
o Do not cut freehand. Guide your
workpiece solidly against the
fence and table top. Make sure
there is no debris between the
workpiece and its supports.
o Use extra caution with large,
small or awkward workpieces.
o Use extra support (tables,
sawhorses, blocks)if your
workpiece is hard to hold down
to the table. Do not use another
person as additional support or
to help feed, support or pull the
workpiece.
o Do not cut more than one
workpiece at a time.
o Do not turn your chop saw
ON before clearing everything
except the workpiece and related
support devices off the table.

CAUTION
]
A 14 in. wheel is the maximum
wheel capacity of your chop saw.
Never use a wheel that is too thick
to allow outer flange to engage
with the fiats on the spindle.
Larger wheels will come in contact
with the wheel guards, while
thicker wheels will prevent the bolt
from securing the wheel on the
spindle. Either of these situations
could result in a serious accident
causing personal injury.
Do not attempt to cut wood or
masonry with this chop saw. Never
cut magnesium
or magnesium
alloy with this machine. Failure
to comply could result in serious
personal injury.
