Electrical safety precautions to follow when using your Ryobi radial arm saw

• The radial arm saw plug must match the receptacle on the electrical wall outlet. Never modify the power saw's power cord plug in any manner. Don't use an adapter plug with an earth grounded power saw.
• Don't expose the power saw to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the power saw will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Check the condition of the power cord before using the radial arm saw. Repair damaged wires in the power cord or replace the power cord if it's damaged before using the radial arm saw.
• When operating the radial arm saw outdoors, use an extension cord rated for outdoor use to prevent the chance of electrical shock.
• If operating the radial arm saw in a damp location or around a water source, use a GCFI protected power supply.
