ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

brake. New brush assemblies are available at STANLEY

service centers. The tool should be allowed to “run in” (run

at no load) for 10 minutes before use to seat new brushes.

The electric brake may be erratic in operation until the

brushes are properly seated (worn in). Always replace

the brush inspection cap after inspection or servicing the

brushes.

While “running in” do not tie, tape, or otherwise lock the

trigger switch on. Hold by hand only.

USE

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions

and applicable regulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal

injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power

source before making any adjustments or removing/

installing attachments or accessories.

Ensure the machine is placed to satisfy your ergonomic

conditions in terms of table height and stability. The

machine site shall be chosen so that the operator has a

good overview and enough free surrounding space around

the machine that allows handling of the workpiece without

any restrictions.

To reduce effects of vibration make sure the environment

temperature is not too cold, machine and accessory is

well maintained and the workpiece size is suitable for this

machine.

Prior to Operation

♦ Install the appropriate saw blade. Do not use

excessively worn blades. The maximum rotation speed

of the tool must not exceed that of the saw blade.

♦ Do not attempt to cut excessively small pieces.

♦ Allow the blade to cut freely. Do not force.

♦ Allow the motor to reach full speed before cutting.

♦ Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles are

tight.

♦ Secure the workpiece.

♦ Although this saw will cut wood and many nonferrous

materials, these operating instructions refer to the

cutting of wood only. The same guidelines apply to

the other materials. Do not cut ferrous (iron and steel)

materials or masonry with this saw! Do not use any

abrasive discs!

♦ Make sure to use the kerf plate. Do not operate the

machine if the kerf slot is wider than 12 mm.

Switching On and Off (Fig.24)

To turn the saw on, push the lock-off lever (dd) to the left,

then depress the trigger switch (l) . The saw will run while

the switch is depressed. Allow the blade to spin up to full

operating speed before making the cut. To turn the saw off,

release the switch. Allow the blade to stop before raising

the saw head. There is no provision for locking the switch

on. A hole (y) is provided in the trigger for insertion of a

padlock to lock the switch off.

Use of LED Worklight System (Fig. 1, 2)

NOTE: The mitre saw must be connected to a power

source.

The LED Worklight System is equipped with an on/off

switch (bb). The LED Worklight System is independent of

the mitre saw’s trigger switch. The light does not need to

be on in order to operate the saw.

To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood:

1. Turn on the system, then pull down on the operating

handle (a) to bring the saw blade close to the wood.

The shadow of the blade will appear on the wood.

2. Align the pencil line with the edge of the blade’s

shadow.You may have to adjust the mitre or bevel

angles in order to match the pencil line exactly.

Body and Hand Position

Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating

the mitre saw will make cutting easier, more accurate and

safer.

♦ Never place your hands near the cutting area.

♦ Place your hands no closer than 150 mm from the

blade.

♦ Hold the workpiece tightly to the table and the fence

when cutting. Keep your hands in position until

the switch has been released and the blade has

completely stopped.

♦ Always make dry runs (without power) before finish

cuts so that you can check the path of the blade.

♦ Do not cross your hands.

♦ Keep both feet firmly on the floor and maintain proper

balance.

♦ As you move the saw arm left and right, follow it and

stand slightly to the side of the saw blade.

♦ View through the guard louvres when following a

pencil line.

Basic Saw Cuts

Vertical Straight Cross Cut (Fig. 1, 2, 25)

NOTE: Always use 254 mm saw blades with 30mm arbor

holes to obtain the desired cutting capacities.

1. Loosen the mitre lock knob (e) and depress the mitre

detent (t) to release the mitre arm.

2. Engage the mitre latch at the 0° position and tighten the

mitre lock knob (e).

3. Place the wood to be cut against the fence (c, v).

4. Take hold of the operating handle (a) and push the

lock-off lever (dd) to the left..

5. Press the trigger switch (l) to start the motor.

6. Depress the head to allow the blade to cut through the

timber and enter the plastic kerf plate (s).

7. After completing the cut, release the switch and wait for

the saw blade to come to a complete standstill before

returning the head to its upper rest position.
