SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BASIC SAW

OPERATIONS

■ Make sure the blade is sharp, undamaged and

properly aligned. With the saw unplugged, push the

power head all the way down. Hand spin the blade

and check for clearance. Tilt the power-head to

45 degree bevel and repeat the check. If the blade

hits anything, make the adjustments shown in the

Maintaining “Alignment (Adjustments)” section.

■ Make sure the blade and arbor collars are clean.

■ Make sure the collars' recessed sides are facing

the blade.

■ Using 6.35 mm hex end of combination wrench

(supplied), make sure the left hand thread arbor

screw is firmly tightened counterclockwise.

■ Make sure all clamps and locks are tight and there is

no excessive play in any parts.

■ Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches

invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery. To reduce

the risk of burns or other fire damage, never use the

miter saw near flammable liquids, vapors or gases.

PLAN AHEAD TO PROTECT YOUR EYES,

HANDS, FACE AND EARS

■ Know your miter saw. Read and understand the

owner’s manual and labels affixed to the tool.

Learn its application and limitations as well as the

specific potential hazards peculiar to this tool.To

reduce the risk of injury from accidental contact with

moving parts, don’t do layout, assembly, or setup

work on the miter saw while any parts are moving.

■ Reduce the Risk of Accidental Starting, make sure

switch is “OFF” before plugging miter saw into a

power outlet.

■ Plan your work. Use The Right Tool. Don’t force tool

or attachment to do a job it was not designed to do.

Use a different tool for any workpiece that can’t be

held in a solidly braced, fixed position.

CAUTION

Because of the sliding action of this saw,

this machine is not designed for cutting metals.

Use this miter saw to cut only wood, and wood

like products. Other materials may shatter, bind

on the blade, start fires or create other dangers.

PREPARING TO MAKE THE CUT

■ Inspect Your Workpiece. Make sure there are no nails

or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be cut.

■ Plan your work to avoid thrown pieces caused when

the workpiece binds on the blade and is torn from

your hands.

■ Plan how you will make the cut.

Always:

■ Make sure the blade is not spinning.

■ Raise the blade.

■ Slide the saw out above the front edge of the

workpiece before starting saw, and

■ Push the lower guard safety lock knob (19) to release

the lower guard, than push the sawblade down on top

of the wood and back toward the rear of the saw to

make the cut.

DANGER

NEVER pull the saw toward you during a cut.

The blade can suddenly climb up on top of the

workpiece and force itself toward you.

■ Plan the way you will hold the workpiece from start to

finish.

BASIC SAW OPERATIONS

MAKING COMMON SLIDE COMPOUND CUTS

There are two types of cuts that can be made with the

slide compound miter saw;

■ Slide Cutting:

-The slide lock knob is left loose, the cutting head is

pulled towards the operator, the sawblade is

lowered into the workpiece and then pushed to the

rear of the saw to complete the cut.

-Used for cutting wide pieces.

■ Chop Cutting (Fig. 21):

-The slide lock knob is tightened and the saw handle

is o pushed down to cut through the workpiece.

-This type of cut is used mainly for narrow pieces.

WARNING

For your convenient use and safety, your saw

has a blade brake. The brake is not a safety

device. Never rely on it to replace proper use of

the guard on your saw. If the blade does not stop

within 6 seconds, unplug the saw and follow the

instructions in the Trouble Shooting section for

fixing the brake before using saw again.

MOUNTING THE MITER SAW (FIG. 18)

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected saw

movement, read and follow the instructions below.

■ Before moving the saw, unplug electric cord. Lock the

miter and bevel knobs and lock the power head in the

lower position.

■ To reduce the risk of back injury, hold the tool close to

your body when lifting. Bend your knees so you can lift

with your legs, not your back. Lift by using the handhold

areas at each side of the bottom of the base, by the

carrying han-dle, or the handles on the front of base.

■ Never carry the miter saw by the power cord or the

trigger grip of the plastic handle. Carrying the tool by

the power cord could cause damage to the insulation or

the wire connections resulting in electric shock or fire.

■ Place the saw so other people cannot stand behind it.

Thrown debris could injure people in its path.

■ Place the saw on a firm, level surface where there is

plenty of room for handling and properly supporting

the workpiece.

■ Support the saw so the table is level and the saw

does not rock.

■ Bolt or clamp the saw to its support.

Place the saw in the desired location either on a work

bench or other recom-mended leg set. The base of the

saw has eight holes to mount the miter saw. Four smaller

holes for screws are labeled A. Four holes for bolts are

labeled B. If the saw is to be used in one location,

permanently fasten it to the work bench or leg set.

NOTE: When mounted on a large flat sur-face, the miter

saw table is 114.3 mm high.

PORTABLE APPLICATIONS

To mount the saw to a 19 mm piece of ply-wood, use 4,

6,35 mm (1/4") bolt holes or the 4 screw holes. The

mounting board can then be clamped down to prevent

it from tipping. Plywood mount also helps protect saw

from damage during the rough handling associated with

portable mitor saw usage.

WORK BENCH APPLICATIONS

Mount as specified in portable applica-tions. Check for

workpiece clearances to left and right of saw.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BASIC SAW

OPERATIONS

BEFORE EACH USE INSPECT YOUR SAW.

DISCONNECT THE MITER SAW.

To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,

unplug the saw, before changing the setup, changing the

blade or adjusting anything. Compare the direction of

rotation arrow on the guard to the direction arrow on the

blade. The blade teeth should always point downward at

the front of the saw. Check the blade screw and

coverplate screw for security.

■ Proper alignment of moving parts,

■ Damaged electric cords,

■ Binding of moving parts,

■ Broken parts,

■ Stable mounting

■ Function of arm return spring and lower guard:

Push the arm all the way down, then let it rise up until

it stops by itself. Check the lower guard to see if it

closed fully. If it did not, follow the instructions in the

“Troubleshooting” section.

■ Smooth, solid movement of sliding assembly.

■ Other conditions that may affect the way the miter

saw works. If any part of this miter saw if missing,

bent, or broken in any way, or any electrical parts

don’t work, turn the saw off and unplug it. Replace

damaged, missing,

■ Keep Guards In Place, in working order, and in

proper adjustment.

■ Maintain Tools With Care. Keep the miter saw clean

for best and safest performance. Follow instructions

for lubricating. DON’T put lubricants on the blade

while it’s spinning.

■ Remove Adjusting Keys And Wrenches from tool

before turning it on.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM

JAMS, SLIPS OR THROWN PIECES

improper accessories may cause risk of injury

to persons.
