• Completely assemble and align saw (See “Assembly”
section).

When Installing Or Moving The Saw
Reduce the Risk of Dangerous Environment.
• Use the saw in a dry, indoor place protected from rain.
• Keep work area well lighted.
• Use recommended accessories. Consult the owner’s
manual for recommended accessories. The use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected saw
movement.
• Bolt or clamp the saw to firm level surface where there is
plenty of room to handle and properly support the work-
piece (See “Assembly-Mounting Your Saw” section).
• Support the saw so the table is level and the saw does
not rock.
• When using a table extension longer than 12" attached
to any side of the saw, bolt the saw to a stationary sur-
face or prop up the outer end of the extension from the
floor or bench top to keep the saw from tipping.
• Put the saw where neither operator nor bystanders
must stand in line with the sawblade.
• To reduce the risk of injury from electrical shock, make
sure your fingers do not touch the plug’s metal prongs
when plugging in or unplugging the saw.
• Never Stand On Tool. Serious injury could occur if the
tool tips or you accidentally hit the cutting tool. Do not
store anything above or near the tool where anyone
might stand on the tool to reach them.
