English • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support round material such as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the work with your hand into the blade. Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being thrown. If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the miter saw off.
