the rotating cutting disc and be flung away.
35. Never reach into the openings of the table saw. Never insert objects into the
openings of the tool (e.g. the saw blade casing, dust extraction adaptor). Danger
of cuts.
36. Never remove the cutting piece if the machine is still switched on or running.
Danger of cutting yourself.
37. Cut workpieces may have sharp edges, ridges or wooden splinters.Danger of
cutting injuries.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING: This table saw is intended for indoor use only. Do not expose it to rain
!
or use it in damp locations.
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one that is heavy enough to carry the current that your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, which will result in loss
of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used
according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. When in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
More Than
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always
replace a damaged extension cord, or have it repaired by a qualified person before
using it. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and
damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must consist of not less
than #12 wire with a 20 Amp time-delayed fuse or a #14 wire with a 15 Amp time-
delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch
is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current
stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
