g) Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it
with the outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain that there is no
gap between the workpiece, fence and table along the line of the cut. Bent or warped
workpieces can twist or shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting.
There should be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
h) Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for
the workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving
blade can be thrown with high speed.
i) Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple workpieces cannot be adequately
clamped or braced and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
j) Ensure the miter saw is mounted or placed on a level, firm work surface before use. A
level and firm work surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becoming unstable.
k) Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or miter angle setting, make sure
the adjustable fence is set correctly to support the workpiece and will not interfere
with the blade or the guarding system. Without turning the tool "ON" and with no
workpiece on the table, move the saw blade through a complete simulated cut to assure there
will be no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
l) Provide adequate support such as table extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece
that is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces longer or wider than the miter saw
table can tip if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the lower
guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
m) Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension or as additional
support. Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to
shift during the cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.
n) The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against the
blade and thrown violently.
o) Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support round material such as
rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and
pull the work with your hand into the blade.
p) Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk
of the workpiece being thrown.
q) lf the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the miter saw off. Wait for all
moving parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove
the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed material. Continued sawing with a
jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the miter saw.
