45° Bevel Adjustment (fig.1, 6).
Unlock the bevel lock handle 10 and tilt the cutting arm
1
as far to the left as possible.
2 Using a combination square, check to see if the blade
angle is 45° to the table.
3 If the blade is not at 45° to the miter table, tilt the
cutting arm to the right, loosen the locknut 37 on the bevel
angle adjustment bolt 36 and use a wrench to adjust the
bolt 36 in or out to increase or decrease the bevel angle.
4 Tilt the cutting arm to the left to 45° bevel and recheck
for alignment.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 until the blade is at 45° to
the miter table.
6 Tighten bevel lock handle and locknut 37 when
alignment is achieved.
Note. For avoiding the interference caused by the left
sliding fence unit during adjustment, slide the plate leftward
and tighten the knob.
MITER ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
Note. There are dual miter scales on the miter saw.
Each of the miter scales assists the user in setting the
desired miter angle from 45° forward to 45° backward.
Each sliding fence unit has five of the most common angle
settings with positive stops at 45°, 22.5°, 0°, 22.5° and
45°. These positive stops position the sliding fence unit at
the desired angle quickly and accurately.
To adjust the angle (fig.1, 7):
1 Unlock the left sliding fence unit by unlocking the
positive stop lock lever 16 behind the sliding fence unit and
lifting up the lock lever 41 pivotally connected in the base.
2 Slide the left sliding fence unit forward or backward to
the desired angle.
3 If the desired angle is one of the five detents, lock the
positive stop lock lever, and then flip the lock lever down to
lock the left sliding fence unit.
4 If the desired angle is not one of the five positive
stops, simply lock the left sliding fence unit by flipping the
lock lever down.
5 Adjust the angle of the right sliding fence unit
according to the procedure foregoing 1-4.
To adjust the indicator:
1 Position the left sliding fence unit at the positive stop
angle «0°» (refer to the procedure of To adjust the angle),
loosen the bolt and adjust the indicator to aim at the «0°»
mark on the miter scale.
2 Adjust the indicator mounted on the right sliding fence
unit according to the same way mentioned above.
ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE UNITS SQUARENESS
AND ALIGNMENT (fig.1, 7)
1 Lower the cutting arm and lock in position.
2 Using a square, lay the heel of the square against the
worktable, and the rule against the blade. Check to see if
the angle between the worktable and the blade is 90°.
3 If not, make the angle to be 90° by adjusting the bevel
angle adjustment bolt.
4 Lay the heel of the square against the blade, and the
rule against the left sliding fence unit 9 which is positioned
at positive stop angle 0°. Check to see if the angle between
the blade and the left sliding fence unit is 90°.
5 If not, unlock the left sliding fence plate 9 by using a
hex key to loosen the three bolts 46 behind the left slinding
fence and two set screws 45 vertically placed on the lateral
side of fence plate.
Adjust the left sliding fence plate 9 to be perpendicular
6
to the blade, and then tighten the bolts 46 and screws 45 to
8
lock the plate.
7 Using a bar, lay the bar against the left sliding fence
unit and the right sliding fence unit which is also positioned
at angle 0°, and check to see if the left and right sliding
fence units are aligned on a same line.
8 If not, unlock the right sliding fence plate by using the
hex key to loosen the three bolts behind right sliding fence
plate and two set screws vertically placed on the lateral
side of fence plate.
9 Adjust the right sliding fence plate into alignment with
the left sliding fence plate, and then tighten the bolts and
screws to lock the right sliding fence plate.
ADJUSTING LOCK LEVERS
After a period of use, the lock levers might loosen and
couldn't clamp the sliding fence units tightly.
An adjustment is needed.
1 Slightly lift up the miter saw base, find out the location
of lock nuts for both sides of lock levers. Properly tighten
the lock nuts and slightly lay down the miter saw base.
Note. The adjustment of lock levers have been
completed at the factory.
CUTTING ARM TRAVEL
Cutting Arm Downward Travel Adjustment (fig.5).
WARNING! To avoid injury from unexpected starting
or electrical shock, turn the switch OFF and remove the
power cord from the power source.
Note. Before each cutting operation, check the
position of the blade to make sure it does not contact any
metal surface. If the blade contacts any metal surface, the
depth of travel must be adjusted.
1 Lower the blade as far as possible.
2 Loosen the locknut 39.
Turn the adjustment bolt 38 out (counterclockwise) to
3
decrease the cutting depth or in (clockwise) to increase the
cutting depth.
4 Carefully rotate the blade manually to check for
contact. Avoid touching blade pointe or edges.
5 Repeat until adjusted properly, and tighten the locknut
to secure the adjustment bolt into position.
ADJUSTING THE CLAMP DEVICE
1 Rotate the knob counterclockwise to allow enough
room for the workpiece to fit between the hold plate and the
sliding fence unit.
2 The clamp device incorporates a quick-release lock
lever. To use the quick-release function, lift up the quick-
release lock lever and slide the clamp device forward or
backward to the desired position.
3 When the clamp plate is located at the desired
position, flip the quick-release lock lever down to engage
the threads thereon with the threads on the clamp device,
and rotate the knob clockwise to secure the workpiece
within the hold plate and the sliding fence unit.
Note. If intend to release the workpiece from seccure
status, counterclockwise the knob first before lifting up the
quick-release lock lever.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Never place hands near the cutting area.
Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating
the miter saw will make cutting easier and safer. Keep
children away. Keep all visitors at a safe distance from the
miter saw. Make sure bystanders are clear of the saw and
workpiece. Don't force the saw. It will do the job better and
safer at its designed rate.
