WARNINGRead all safety warnings and all instructions.!Cutting proceduresDANGERKeep hands away fromcutting area and the bla<strong>de</strong>.Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle,or motor housing. If both hands are holdingthe saw, they cannot be cut by the bla<strong>de</strong>.Do not reach un<strong>de</strong>rneath the workpiece.The guard cannot protect you from the bla<strong>de</strong>below the workpiece.Adjust the cutting <strong>de</strong>pth to the thickness ofthe workpiece. Less than a full tooth of thebla<strong>de</strong> teeth should be visible below theworkpiece.Never hold piece being cut in your handsor across your leg. Secure the workpiece toa stable platform. It is important to supportthe work properly to minimize body exposure,bla<strong>de</strong> binding, or loss of control.Hold the power tool by insulated grippingsurfaces only, when performing anoperation where the cutting tool maycontact hid<strong>de</strong>n wiring or its own cord.Contact with a "live" wire will also makeexposed metal parts of the tool “live” and couldgive the operator an electric shock.When ripping, always use a rip fence orstraight edge gui<strong>de</strong>. This improves the-3-accuracy of cut and reduces the chance ofbla<strong>de</strong> binding.Always use bla<strong>de</strong>s with correct size andshape (diamond versus round) of arborholes. Bla<strong>de</strong>s that do not match the mountinghardware of the saw will run eccentrically,causing loss of control.Never use damaged or incorrect bla<strong>de</strong>washers or bolt. The bla<strong>de</strong> washers and boltwere specially <strong>de</strong>signed for your saw, foroptimum performance and safety of operation.Inspect the condition and quality of thewood and remove all nails from lumberbefore cutting.
