ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING
NOTICE: Your compound miter saw was completely adjusted at the factory. However, during
shipment, slight misalignment may have occurred. Check the following settings and make
adjustments, if necessary, prior to using this compound miter saw.

Head-assembly lock pin

(Fig . 18)
The head-assembly lock pin is used to hold
the head assembly in the DOWN position.
This position prevents the head assembly from
moving up and down during transport and
makes the saw more compact for lifting and
storage. This position is also required for some
adjustment procedures.
To engage the head-assembly lock pin:
1. Ensure that the depth-stop function is not
engaged (See "Depth-Of-Cut Adjustment").
2. Grasp the main handle and press down on
the head assembly.
3. While pressing the head assembly down, push in on the head-assembly lock pin. Release
the head assembly. The head will be locked in the DOWN position.
To disengage the head-assembly lock pin:
1. Grasp the main handle and press down on the head assembly.
2. While pressing the head down, pull out the head-assembly lock pin. Release the head-
assembly lock pin while maintaining your grip on the main handle. Slowly allow the spring-
loaded head assembly to come up to the top of its travel and then release the handle.
Slide-rail lock knob
The slide-rail lock knob is located on the rear
of the sliding mechanism (Fig.19).
1. Loosen the slide-rail lock knob to slide
the head assembly through the sliding
mechanism forward or backward to the
desired position.
2. Be sure to tighten the slide-rail lock knob
after the desired position is reached.
Disconnect plug from power source before performing any assembly,
adjustment or repair to avoid possible injury.
