SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR LASERS cont.
1. The laser beam system is mounted to the blade guard. Never remove from blade
guard to use on another tool or use for other purposes.
2. The laser beam can be harmful to the eyes. ALWAYS avoid direct eye exposure.
DO NOT look directly into the laser beam output aperture during operation.
3. The laser on the tile saw is not a toy. ALWAYS keep out of the reach of children.
The laser light emitted from this device SHOULD NEVER be directed towards
any person for any reason.
4. Be aware that laser light reflected off of a mirror or any other reflective surfaces
can also be dangerous.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1 . Keep your work area clean and well lit. DO NOT leave tools or tile pieces on
on the saw while it is in operation. Cluttered work benches and dark areas
invite accidents.
2. DO NOT operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
4. Make your workshop childproof with padlocks and master switches, or by
removing tab in the middle of starter switch (See Fig. 26 on page 16).
5. MAKE SURE the work area has ample lighting so you can see the work and
that there are no obstructions that will interfere with safe operation BEFORE
using your saw.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. KNOW your power tool. Read the operator's manual carefully. Learn the saw's
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to
this tool.
2. STAY ALERT, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool.
3. DO NOT use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
4. DRESS properly. DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry. Pull back long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing or
long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and
should also be avoided.
5. AVOID accidental starting. BE SURE switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in.
6 . REMOVE adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool “ON”. A wrench or
a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
7. DO NOT overreach. KEEP proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
8 . USE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. ALWAYS wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
9. NEVER stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the
blade is accidentally contacted. 5
