Use And Care Manual

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the internal metal motor components with protecting
insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, double-insulated
tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will t into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not t, contact a
qualied electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way.
DOUBLE INSULATION
This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz.
A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and
the motor will overheat. If the tool does not operate when
plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.
Use a proper extension cord. Make sure extension cords
are in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use a cord that is heavy enough to carry the drawn
current needed by the saw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
The table below shows the correct size to use, depending
on the cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
Be sure extension cords are properly wired and in good
condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord
or have it repaired by a qualied technician before using it.
Protect extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat,
and damp or wet areas.

GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING: Do not permit ngers to touch the
terminal or the plug when installing or removing the plug
from an outlet.
WARNING: The double insulated system is intended
to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the
tool’s internal wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions
to avoid electrical shock.
WARNING: To ensure safety and reliability, all
repairs should be performed by a qualied service technician.
WARNING: Double insulation does not take the
place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool.
CAUTION: Servicing of a product with double
insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the
system and should be performed only by a qualied service
technician. For service, we suggest you return the tool to
your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always
use original factory replacement parts when servicing. Do
not use power tools in wet or damp locations or expose
them to rain or snow.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
operation before performing any work using the table saw.
• Always turn off saw before disconnecting it to avoid
accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply.
• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use to instruct other users. If you loan someone this tool,
loan them these instructions also.
