Original Instructions)
♦ Press down the operating handle (a) and pull out the
lock down pin (o), as shown.
♦ Gently release the downward pressure and allow the
arm to rise to its full height.
Bench Mounting (Fig. 6)
♦ Holes (j) are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench
mounting. Always mount your saw firmly to prevent
movement. To enhance the portability, the tool can be
mounted to a piece of 15 mm or thinner plywood which
can then be clamped to your work support or moved to
other job sites and reclamped.
♦ When mounting your saw to a piece of ply-
wood, make sure that the mounting screws
do not protrude from the bottom of the wood.
The plywood must sit flush on the work support. When
clamping the saw to any work surface, clamp only on
the clamping bosses where the mounting screw holes
are located. Clamping at any other point will interfere
with the proper operation of the saw.
♦ To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the moun-
ting surface is not warped or otherwise uneven. If the
saw rocks on the surface, place a thin piece of material
under one saw foot until the saw is firm on the moun-
ting surface.
Mounting the Saw Blade (Fig. 9, 10, 11, 12)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit
off and disconnect machine from power source
before installing and removing accessories,
before adjusting or changing set-ups or when
making repairs. Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF
position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
♦ Never depress the spindle lock button while the blade
is under power or coasting.
♦ Do not cut light alloy and ferrous metal (containing iron
or steel) or masonry or fibre cement product with this miter
saw.
♦ Should use the corresponding blade cutting different
materials.
1. With the lower guard held in the raised position loosen
the guard bracket screw (kk) until the guard bracket (ll)
raises far enough to access the blade locking screw
(nn).
2. Depress the spindle lock button (x) with one hand and
with the other hand use the wrench (i) provided to
loosen the left-hand threaded blade locking screw (nn)
by turning clockwise.
WARNING: To use the spindle lock, press the
button as shown and rotate the spindle by hand
until you feel the lock engage.
Continue to hold the lock button in to keep the spindle from
turning.
3. Remove the blade locking screw (nn) and the outside
arbor collar (pp).
4. Install the saw blade (oo) onto the blade adaptor seated
directly against the inside arbor collar (rr), making sure
that the teeth at the bottom edge of the blade are point-
ing toward the back of the saw (away from the operator).

5. Replace the outer arbor collar (pp).
6. Tighten the blade locking screw (nn) carefully by turn-
ing counter-clockwise while holding the spindle lock

7. Return the guard bracket (ll) to its original position and
firmly tighten the guard bracket screw (kk) to hold brack-
et in place.
WARNING! Be aware the saw blade shall be
replaced in the described way only. Only use
saw blades as specified under Technical Data.
WARNING! The guard bracket(ll) must be
returned to its original position and the guard
bracket screw(kk) tightened before activating
the saw.
WARNING! Failure to do so may allow the guard
to contact the spinning saw blade resulting in
damage to the saw and severe personal injury.
Your miter saw was accurately adjusted at the factory. If
readjustment due to shipping and handling or any other
reason is required, follow the steps below to adjust your
saw. Once made, these adjustments should remain
accurate.
Checking and Adjusting the Miter Scale (Fig. 13,
14, 15)
1. Loosen the miter lock knob (e), depress the miter detent
(t) to release the miter arm. Swing the miter arm until the
latch locates it at the 0° miter position. Do not lock miter
lock knob (e).
2. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw
kerf (s).
3. Place a square (tt) against the left side fence (v) and
blade (oo) (Fig. 13).
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade
teeth with the square.
If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
4 . Loosen the miter lock knob (e), depress the miter detent
(t) to release the miter arm. Swing the miter arm until the
pointer points to 0° on the miter scale. Tighten the miter
lock knob (e).
5. Loosen the plastic knob (k) and use the wrench (i) to
loosen the fence stop screw (jj). Remove the left side
fence (v).
6. Pull down the head and lock it in the lowered position by
pushing in the lock down pin. Replace the left side fence
and place a square against the left side fence and the
blade. With the left side fence against the square use
the wrench (i) to tighten the hex bolts on the fence in the
order from the right side.
Checking and Adjusting the Blade to the Table
(Fig. 16–19)
