MK-370EXP SAW
MAKE THE WORKSHOP KID PROOF
Make the workshops kid proof by using padlocks, master switches or by removing starter
keys.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL
A power tool will do a job better and safer operating at the rate for which it was designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
DO NOT force a tool or an attachment, to do a job that it was not designed to do.
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
If using an extension cord make sure it is in good condition first. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage that will result in a loss of power and
overheating. TABLE 1, Page 10 shows the correct AWG size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.
USE PROPER APPAREL
DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may
be caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair.
ALWAYS wear approved eye protection.
ALWAYS wear approved respiratory protection.
SECURE WORK
Clamps or a vise should be used to hold work whenever practical. Keeping your
hands free to operate a power tool is safer.
DO NOT OVERREACH
Keep proper footing and balance at all times by not overreaching.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools clean for the best and safest performance. Always follow maintenance
instructions for lubricating, and when changing accessories.
DISCONNECT TOOLS
Power tools should always be disconnected before servicing or when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
ON / OFF
ALWAYS place the power ON/OFF switch in the OFF position when the saw is not in use.
