When using and extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. MINIMUM GAUGE FOR CORD SETS Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet 120V 0-25 26-50 51-100 101-150 240V 0-50 51-100 101-200 201-300 Ampere Rating More Not more American Wire Gage Than Than 10 - 12 16 16 14 12 12 - 16 14 12 Not Recommended • WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided. • ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES which meet the ANSI Z87.1 requirements. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. • SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool. • DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. • MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. • DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing; when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like. • REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging in. • USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the instruction manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons. • NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted. • CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function — check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced. • NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop. • REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing use only identical replacement parts. • TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: a. This equipment may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. b. The tool may be equipped with a 3-prong grounding type plug. This plug is to be used in a grounded outlet only. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. c. Do not alter the plug in any way. Additional Safety Rules for Chop Saw • Always wear proper eye and respiratory protection. • Before using, inspect the cutting wheel for cracks or flaws. If such a crack or flaw is evident, discard the wheel. The wheel should also be inspected whenever you think the tool may have been dropped. Flaws may cause wheel breakage. • When starting the tool with a new or replacement wheel or if you are unsure of the condition of the wheel, hold the tool in a well protected area and let it run for one minute. If the wheel has an undetected crack or flaw, it should burst in less than one minute. Never start the tool with a person in line with the wheel. This includes the operator. • In operation, avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment. If this occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks or flaws. • NEVER have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade. Personal injury will occur. • Clean your chop saw periodically following the procedure in this manual. • Do not remove wheel guards or base. • ALWAYS USE THE VISE OR SPECIAL FIXTURE TO CLAMP WORK SECURELY. Other aids such as spring, bar, or C-clamps may be appropriate for certain sizes and shapes of workpiece. Use care in selecting and placing these clamps and make a dry run before making a cut. • Use only 14" type 1 wheels rated at 4100 rpm or higher. • Allow cut off parts to cool before handling. • Do not attempt to cut wood or plastic with this tool. • NEVER CUT MAGNESIUM WITH THIS TOOL. • Use chop saw in a well-ventilated area. • Turn chop saw off before removing any pieces from the base. • DO NOT CUT ELECTRICALLY LIVE MATERIAL. • Do not use circular saw blades or any other toothed blades with this tool. Serious injury may result. • DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL NEAR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, GASES OR DUST. Sparks or hot chips from cutting or arcing motor brushes may ignite combustible materials. • Do not use the side of the...
