Miter Saw Safety Rules - Delta ShopMaster S26-260L Mode D'emploi

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY RULES
• WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION. All persons
in work area should wear safety glasses with side
shields. Everyday eyeglasses with impact resistant
lenses are not safety glasses. Eye equipment should
comply with ANSI Z87.1 standards.
• HEARING PROTECTION. All people in work area
should wear proper hearing protection consistent with
noise levels and exposure. Hearing equipment should
comply with ANSI S3.19 standards.
• DUST PROTECTION. Use of power tools can
generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause
serious and permanent respiratory or other injury,
including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer,
and death. Direct articles away from face and body.
Always operate tool in well-ventilated area and
provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection
system whenever possible. Avoid breathing dust and
avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust
to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin
may promote absorption of harmful chemicals. Use
properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure and
wash exposed areas with soap and water.
• Replace the warning labels if they become obscured
or removed.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemical: work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
• SEE GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY SECTION OF THIS MANUAL. Read entire instruction manual before operating
saw. Learning the saw's proper applications, limitations, and specific potential hazards will greatly minimize the
possibility of accidents and injury. Make sure all users are familiar with its warnings and instructions before using saw.
• SEE POWER CONNECTION SECTION OF THIS MANUAL for instructions and warnings regarding power cord and
connections.
• FIRMLY CLAMP OR BOLT your machine to a
workbench or table at approximately hip height. The
saw can tip over if the saw head is released suddenly
and the saw is not secured to a work surface.
• KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Do not
reach underneath work or in blade cutting path with
your hands and fingers for any reason.
• ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES while
cutting to minimize risk of blade pinching and
kickback.
