BASIC SAW OPERATIONS
DANGER
Never lower the saw completely in front of the
work-piece and then cut only on the forward
push. The upward moving rear portion of the
blade could twist the workpiece from your grasp.
Workpieces up to 342.9 mm wide and 88.9 mm thick can
be cut following the directions below:
Put wood against fence and secure with clamp as
■
appropriate.
Loosen the slide lock knob.
■
Grasp the saw handle and pull the carriage until the
■
arbor (center of saw-blade) is over the front edge of
the workpiece.
Switch on the saw and allow to come to full speed.
■
Push the saw handle all the way down and cut
■
through the leading edge of the workpiece.
Gently push the saw handle towards the fence
■
completing the cut.
Push power head to full rear position after each cut.
■
Turn motor off and allow blade to come to a complete
■
stop before moving hands.
CHOP CUTTING (FIG. 20)
Slide the cutting head to the rear as far as it will go.
■
Lock slide lock knob.
■
Position workpiece on table and against fence and
■
secure with clamp as appropriate.
Turn on saw and lower blade into work-piece.
■
After cut is complete turn off saw, allow blade to stop
■
rotating before allowing cutting head to rise up.
BODY AND HAND POSITION
Never place hands near cutting area. Place hand at
■
least 100 mm from path of blade.
Hold workpiece firmly to the fence to prevent
■
movement toward the blade.
When holding the workpiece to the left side of the
■
blade, always use your left hand. Use your right hand
to hold the workpiece to the right side of the blade.
Before making a cut, make a "dry run" with the power
■
off so you can see the path of the blade.
Keep hands in position until trigger has been released
■
and the blade has completely stopped.

WARNING
Do not try to cut short pieces, you cannot properly
support the workpiece and keep your hold down
hand the required distance from the blade.
MITER CUT (FIG. 21)
When a miter cut is required, move the saw to the
desired angle. Move with the handle to the miter angle to
make the cut. There are settings on the miter scale for
angles (degrees) and crown molding.
Note: Remember to unlock the miter lock lever before
changing the miter angle.
BEVEL CUT (FIG. 22)
When a bevel cut is required tilt the blade to desired bevel
angle. Stand to the left side of the handle to make the cut.
SLIDING FENCE
When beveling the blade to the left or back fence may
have to be repositioned. Loosen the fence locking knob
and slide the fence to the left or right as needed. Adjust
the fence as close to the guard as possible to provide
maximum support for the workpiece. Securely tighten
knob and make a dry run with the saw off to check for
clearance between the fence and guard. On certain
extreme compound cuts it may be necessary to remove a
sliding fence to avoid interference. After completing bevel
cut(s) remember to replace and/or slide the fence back.
VERNIER BEVEL SCALE OPERATION
The Vernier bevel scale can quickly and accurately help
the user to adjust the saw to any 1/2° increment as
illustrated (Fig. 16).
COMPOUND CUT
When a compound cut is required, select the desired
bevel and miter positions.
CUTTING BOWED MATERIAL (FIG. 23)
Before cutting a workpiece, check to make sure it is not
bowed. If it is bowed the workpiece must be positioned
and cut as illustrated. Do not position workpiece
incorrectly or try to cut the workpiece without the support
of the fence. This will cause pinching of the workpiece on
the blade. The workpiece could suddenly jump or move
and your hand could hit the blade.
BASIC SAW OPERATIONS
WORKPIECE CLAMP USAGE (FIG. 24)
WARNING
Avoid thrown workpieces. Avoid binding the work
against the blade.
Always hold or clamp your work down to the saw.
■
Do not hold or clamp the workpiece on both sides of
■
the blade. The blade can throw a cut off piece if you
confine the workpiece on both sides of the blade.
Read and follow the instructions in the remainder of
■
your saw's owners manual.
This accessory was designed to make your miter saw
■
operations more convenient. Read and understand
these instructions completely before use.
Always perform dry runs. Make sure the saw is
■
unplugged. Completely set up your saw. Pull the
blade and power head through the full range of
motion to check for interference. The clamp can be
used in a left or right configuration. Make sure that
your blade, saw guard or motor does not interfere
with the clamp. Correct any interference before use.
Always tighten the clamp so that the workpiece is
■
secured between the clamp and fence, support or base.
No visible gap should be present between saw
and wood.
The clamp can be used only in a vertical position.
■
Place material to be cut on table of miter saw. Secure
■
workpiece to the fence and table by turning knob to
tighten clamp. Do not overtighten the clamp. It should
just lightly hold the wood against the fence and table.
Perform a dry run with the saw unplugged. After you
■
believe that the saw is completely set up, pull the
power head down as if you were making an actual cut.
Check for interferences and for potentially dangerous
situations. Adjust the set up so that a safe operation
can be completed.
Complete the cut as instructed in the remainder of
■
you miter saw owners manual.
IMPORTANT
To help perform the safest and most precise
miter saw cut, make the cut and then release the
power switch. Hold the power head down and
keep your hands in place until the blade stops
rotating. Then raise the power head and remove
workpiece from work table.
MAINTENANCE
DANGER
Never put lubricants on the blade while it is
spinning.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected
starting or electrical shock, unplug the power
cord before working on the saw.
WARNING
For your safety, this saw is double insulated.
Toavoid electrical shock, fire or injury, use only
parts identical to those identified in the parts
list.Reassemble exactly as original assembly to
avoid electric shock.
LOWER BLADE GUARD
Do not use the saw without the lower guard. The lower
blade guard is attached to the saw for your protection.
Should the lower guard become damaged, do not use the
saw until damaged guard has been replaced. Develop a
regular check to make sure the lower guard is working
properly. Clean the lower guard of any dust or build up
with a damp cloth.
CAUTION
Do not use solvents on the guard. They could
make the plastic "cloudy" and brittle.
WARNING
When cleaning lower guard unplug the saw from
the outlet to avoid unexpected startup.
Periodically, sawdust will accumulate under the work
table and base. This could cause difficulty in the
movement of the work table when setting up a miter cut.
Frequently blow out or vacuum up the sawdust.
WARNING
If blowing sawdust, wear proper eye protection to
keep debris from blowing into eyes.
LUBRICATION (FIG. 25)
BALL BEARINGS
All the motor bearings in this tool are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit, therefore, no further lubrication is required.
