R. DO NOT remove small ;)ieces of cut-off material
that may become trapped inside the blade guard
while the saw is running. This could endanger your
hands or cause a kickback. Turn saw "OFF" and
wait until blade stops.
S. Use extr_ care when ripping wood that has a twisted
grain or is twisted or bowed it may rock on the
table and/or pinch the sawblade.
10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
A Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpened or set cutting
tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw,
or kickback at the operator.
Minimize potent/a injury by proper cutting tool
and machine maintenance.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED
SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE
SAW OFF
B, Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,
friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or
buffing wheels.
11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS
SAW
12. Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked
and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is
attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided
However, the facing must notinterfere with the proper
functioning of the sawblade guard.
13. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates
toward you when standing in normal operating
position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars
and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting
tool as low as possible for the operation being
performed. Keep all guards in place whenever possible,
14. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for
an operating speed less than 3450 RPM. Never use
cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for
which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and
efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter
blade for which the saw is designed, since under these
conditions the spreader is nearestthe blade.
15. AcIjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER
operate the saw unlessthe proper insert isinstalled.
16, NEVER feed material into the cutting tool from the
rear of the saw. An accident and serious injury could
result.
17. THINK SAFETY.
Safety m a combination of operator common senseand
alertness at all times when the saw is being used.
18. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.
DANGER
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY
READ AND UNDERSTAND OWNER'S MANUAL
BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE:
1 WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES PER ANSI Z87.1 AT ALL
TIMES
2. USE SAW-BLADE GUARD FOR "THRU-SAWING'"
3, KEEP HANDS OUT OF PATH OF SAWBLADE
4, USE A "PUSH-STICK" WHEN REQUIRED
5, KNOW HOW TO AVOID "KICKBACKS"
6 DO NOT PERFORM OPERATIONS "FREEHAND"
7, NEVER REACH AROUND OR OVER SAW BLADE
19. WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY
(GAINED FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR SAW)
TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. ALWAYS
REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OF A
SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE
INJURY.
20. WARNING: THE 2-1/2" SAW PULLEY AND THE
2-1/2" MOTOR PULLEY FURNISHED, WILL RUN
THE BLADE AT APPROXIMATELY 3450 RPM
WHEN USED WITH A 3450 RPM MOTOR. NEVER
SUBSTITUTE THESE PULLEYS TO INCREASE THIS
SPEED BECAUSE IT COULD BE DANGEROUS.
The operation of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles complying
with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on Package) before commencing
power too] operation. Safety Goggles are available at Sears
retail or catalog stores.
