17. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
18. Be sure that the blade does not contact the turn
base in the lowest position.
19. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw
moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
20. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
21. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it
run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced blade.
22. Wait until the blade attains full speed before
cutting.
23. Stop operation immediately if you notice anything
abnormal.
24. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the on
position.
25. Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive,
monotonous operations. Do not be lulled into a
false sense of security. Blades are extremely
unforgiving.
26. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive wheels may cause an injury.
27. Do not use the saw to cut other than wood,
aluminum or similar materials.
28. Connect miter saws to a dust collecting device
when sawing.
29. Select saw blades in relation to the material to be
cut.
30. Take care when slotting.
31. Replace the kerf board when worn.
32. Do not use saw blades manufactured from high
speed steel.
33. Some dust created from operation contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based-painted material and,
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and
work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
34. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that
the blade is sharp and clean.
35. The operator is adequately trained in the use,
adjustment and operation of the machine.
36. Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the
maximum speed marked on the saw blade.
37. Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts
of the workpiece from the cutting area whilst the
tool is running and the saw head is not in the rest
position.
38. Use only saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer which conform to EN847-1.
39. Wear gloves for handling saw blade (saw blades
shall be carried in a holder wherever practicable)
and rough material.
40. Keep the floor area free of loose material e.g.
chips and cut-offs.
41. When fitted with laser, no exchange with different
type of laser is permitted. Repairs shall only be
carried out correctly.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
INSTALLATION
Bench mounting (Fig. 1)
When the tool is shipped, the handle is locked in the
lowered position by the stopper pin. Release the stopper
pin by simultaneously applying a slight downward
pressure on the handle and pulling the stopper pin.
WARNING:
• Ensure that the tool will not move on the
supporting surface. Movement of the miter saw on
the supporting surface while cutting may result in loss
of control and serious personal injury. (Fig. 2)
This tool should be bolted with four bolts to a level and
stable surface using the bolt holes provided in the tool’s
base. This will help prevent tipping and possible injury.
(Fig. 3)
Turn the adjusting bolt clockwise or counterclockwise so
that it comes into a contact with the tool surface to keep
the tool stable.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function
on the tool. Failure to switch off and unplug the tool
may result in serious personal injury from accidental
start-up.
Blade guard (Fig. 4)
When lowering the handle, the blade guard rises
automatically. The blade guard returns to its original
position when the cut is completed and the handle is
raised.
WARNING:
• Never defeat or remove the blade guard or the
spring which attaches to the guard. An exposed
blade as a result of defeated guarding may result in
serious personal injury during operation.
In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain the
blade guard in good condition. Any irregular operation of
the blade guard should be corrected immediately. Check
to assure spring loaded return action of guard.
WARNING:
• Never use the tool if the blade guard or spring are
damaged, faulty or removed. Operation of the tool
with a damaged, faulty or removed guard may result in
serious personal injury.
If the see-through blade guard becomes dirty, or sawdust
adheres to it in such a way that the blade and/or
workpiece is no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and
