To unlock the cutting head,
1. Press down lightly on the cutting head.
2. Pull back on lock knob outwards from its "Lock" position (a).
3. Rotate the lock knob 1⁄4 turn, then release it into "unlock" position (b)
4. Slowly raise the cutting head into the work position. (FIG 9)
WArning:
Always transport the miter saw in the locked down position, carrying the saw by carrying handle on
the cutting arm. DO nOT lift or carry the miter saw using the switch handle, doing so may cause misalignment of miter
and bevel settings.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE MITER SAW
To start the miter saw, firmly grasp the saw's top handle and depress the switch trigger.
To stop the miter saw, completely release the switch trigger.
This miter saw is equipped with an automatic electric blade brake. When the switch trigger is released, the electric brake is activated and stops the saw
blade in seconds.
WArning:
After completing a cut, release the switch trigger to activate the electric blade brake. Keep the
cutting head down until the blade comes to a complete stop before raising the cutting head to the upward or starting
position. A rotating saw blade can be dangerous.
WArning:
The torque resulting from electric blade brake activation may loosen the arbor bolt. Occasionally
check the arbor bolt and tighten if necessary.
TABLE HAZARD AREA
On the stationary table, on each side of the rotating miter table, is a "hands" warning symbol that is
cast into the table. (See FIG 10) The area between the two "hand" symbols is designated as a "Hazard
Zone" and the miter saw operator should never place their hands inside this area while the miter saw
is running.
WArning:
Keep your hands outside the "Hazard Zone" and out of the path of the saw blade. Use the supplied
work clamp or other clamping means to secure the work piece in place before making a cut with the miter saw.
WArning:
Always be sure the miter saw is disconnected from the power source before making any
adjustments or during set-up prior to cutting. Failure to disconnect or unplug the machine may cause accidental
starting, resulting in serious personal injury.
ROTATING THE MITER TABLE
This miter saw will accurately cut any angle from the straight 90° cut to 45° left and 45° right. To rotate the miter table, loosen the Miter Lock Knob (7)
one or two turns counterclockwise and then rotate the miter table to the desired angle using the miter handle (13). When the desired angle is reached,
turn the miter lock knob (7) clockwise to lock the miter table in place. (FIG 11)
NOTE: This miter saw comes with 9 positive click stops, 0° for 90° cutting, left 15°, 22.5° , 30°, 45°, right-15°, 22.5°,
30°, 45° for quick setting of common miter cutting angles
CAUTION: Always tighten the miter lock knob to secure the miter table in position before cutting with the miter saw.
FIG 11
POINTER AND SCALE
An arrow shaped pointer is located at the forward end of the miter saw insert plate. Each line on the miter scale represents 1°. When the miter table is
rotated the pointer is moved from one line to the next along the miter scale, changing the angle of cut by one degree.
