TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will
do the job better and more safely at the rate
that it was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories or storing the tool. This preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of accidental
starting of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in workpieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
FOR CHOP SAWS
1. Make sure the power source is appropriate
for the tool.
WARNING: Never connect the power tool
unless the available AC power source is of the
same voltage as that specified on the name-
plate of the tool.
2. Make sure the trigger switch is turned OFF.
WARNING: If the power cord is connected
to the power source with the trigger switch
turned ON, the power tool will start suddenly
and could cause a serious accident.
3. Check the cut-off wheel for visible defects.
Confirm that the cut-off wheel is free of cracks
or other visible damages.
4. Confirm that the cut-off wheel is fixed se-
curely to the power tool.
WARNING: When the clamping bolt is
loose, the cut-off wheel may be damaged
when the wheel axle starts revolving, causing
a hazardous condition.
5. Use cut-off wheels whose peripheral speed
ratings are over the maximum working periph-
eral speed. When replacing the cut-off wheel,
ensure that the replacement cut-off wheel has
a designed peripheral speed.
6. Confirm the stopper position. Confirm that
the stopper which was used for installation
and removal of the cut-off wheel has returned
to the retract position.
7. Securely fix the cutting material. Ensure that
the material is securely fastened with the vise.
If it is not, a serious accident could be caused if
the material comes loose or the cut-off wheel
breaks during operation.
8. Check the Power Receptacle. To prevent
overheating or accidental stopping, confirm
that the power plug fits properly in the elec-
trical receptacle and does not fall out after it
is inserted. Repair or replace the receptacle, if
it is faulty.
9. Confirm that the tool's power cable is not
damaged. Repair or replace the power cord
