SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

ELECTRICAL

WARNING: Do not permit ﬁngers to touch the

terminal or the plug when installing or removing the

plug from an outlet.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, double-insulated

 toolsareequipped witha polarizedplug(oneblade

is wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt into a

polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does

not ﬁt in the outlet properly, reverse the plug. If it still does

not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician to install a

polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

• Double insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire

grounded power cord and grounded power supply

system. Applicable only to Class II (double-insulated)

tools. This compound miter saw is a double-insulated

tool.

WARNING: Double insulation does not take the

place of normal safety precautions when operating

this tool.

• Before plugging in the tool, be sure that the

outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage

marked on the tool’s data plate. Do not use “AC only”

rated tools with a DC power supply.

• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as

pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your body is

grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions,

and do not use power tools in wet or damp locations.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock. This tool is intended for indoor use only.

• If operating a power tool in damp locations is

unavoidable, always use a ground fault circuit

interrupter to supply power to your tool. Always wear

electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear in damp

conditions.

• Inspect tool cords for damage. Have damaged tool

cords repaired by a qualiﬁed person. Be sure to stay

constantly aware of the cord location, and keep it well

away from the moving blade.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry

the tool or to remove the plug from the outlet. Keep

the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving

parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged

cords increase the risk of electric shock.
