5. Return the guard bracket to its original position and firmly tighten
the guard bracket screw to hold bracket in place.
WARNING:
• The guard bracket must be returned to its original position and
the screw tightened before activating the saw.
• Failure to do so may allow the guard to contact the spinning
saw blade resulting in damage to the saw and severe
personal injury.
Assembling and Adjusting Your Saw
PERFORM ALL ASSEMBLY WITH SAW UNPLUGGED. Attach Miter
Clamp Handle
Remove the miter clamp handle (4) from the plastic parts bag and
carefully thread it into the bracket in the front of the saw.
Attaching Dust Bag
A zippered cloth dust bag is included with your saw. To attach the
bag, fit the plastic opening firmly over the dust spout (9).NOTE: The
saw can also be used with a vacuum cleaner hose attached to the
dust spout or without any attachment.
Attaching Stop Block
A stop block is included for cutting multiple pieces to the same length.
The stop block can be installed on either the right or left side of the
saw base.Refer to figure 18 for a layout of the parts that make up the
work extensions. Locate the stop block (23) and slide it over the back
arm of either one of the work extensions as shown in Figure 19. Insert
the wing screw into the threaded opening in the stop block. When
using the stop block, loosen the wing screw and adjust the block to the
desired distance from the blade for the cut being made. Once the stop
block is installed it may be flipped up and back out of the way if not
needed.

Attaching Work Extensions
The work extensions are installed using the clamp brackets and
screws shown in figure 18. To install the extensions, carefully tilt the
miter saw backwards exposing the underside of the base. Hold the
clamp bracket against the bracket support shown in figure 20. Slide
the work extension through the holes in the miter saw base and over
the clamp bracket (figure 21). Tighten the bracket with the clamp
bracket screw. Repeat the procedure on the opposite side of the saw
for the remaining work extension.
Adjustments
PERFORM ALL ADJUSTMENTS WITH THE MITER SAW
UNPLUGGED
NOTE: Your miter saw is fully and accurately adjusted at the factory at
the time of manufacture. If readjustment due to shipping and handling
or any other reason is required, follow the steps below to adjust your
saw.
Miter Scale Adjustment
Place a square against the saw's fence and blade, as shown in Figure
6. (Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with the square. To do so
will cause an inaccurate measurement.) Loosen the miter clamp
handle (4) as shown in Figure 7 and swing the miter arm until the
miter latch (5) locks it at the 0 miter position. Do not tighten the clamp
handle. If the saw blade is not exactly perpendicular to the fence,
loosen the two screws that hold the handle to the base (shown in
Figure 8) and move the arm of the saw left or right until the blade is
perpendicular to the fence, as measured with the square. Retighten
the two screws. Pay no attention to the reading of the miter pointer at
this point.
