SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITRE SAWS

Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like
products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-
off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as bars,
rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving parts
such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from abrasive
cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and
other plastic parts.
Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand, you
must always keep your hand at least 100 mm from
either side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to
cut pieces that are too small to be securely clamped
or held by hand. If your hand is placed too close to
the saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from
blade contact.
The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or
held against both the fence and the table. Do not
feed the workpiece into the blade or cut "freehand"
in any way. Unrestrained or moving workpieces could
be thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the
saw through the workpiece. To make a cut, raise the
saw head and pull it out over the workpiece without
cutting, start the motor, press the saw head down
and push the saw through the workpiece. Cutting on
the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb
on top of the workpiece and violently throw the blade
assembly towards the operator.
Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece "cross handed" i.e. holding
the workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your left
hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning.
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make
certain that there is no gap between the workpiece,
fence and table along the line of the cut. Bent or
