Retractable Safety Guard

The lower guard provides protection to your hands and limbs when 
the mitre saw head is in the up position. During the operation of 
the saw, when the saw is turned on and you are making a cut, the 
lower guard retracts over the upper guard as the saw is lowered 
into the work piece.

1.   To retract the lower guard, slide the 

release lever right with your thumb and 
press handle down.

Turning The Saw On

1.   To turn the mitre saw on, squeeze the 

trigger switch.

2.   To turn the mitre saw off, release the 

trigger switch.

Note:

 Before performing a cut, ensure the 

blade is at full speed. Failure to do this 
may cause the blade to become blunt and 
cause the blade to lock-up.

Slide Action

When cutting wide pieces of wood, ensure 
the slide lock is loose.

1.   First pull carriage fully 

forwards, slide the release 
lever right with your thumb 
and press handle down.

2.   Push carriage toward the 

rear fence.
