on the quick-cam locking lever (1).
2. While holding the positive stop

or right to the desired angle.
3. Release the positive stop locking
lever (2).
4. Press down on the quick-cam
locking lever (1) until it locks the
table in place.
NOTE: The quick-cam lock lever

TURNING SAW ON (FIG. 25)
Squeeze the trigger switch (1) to turn
the miter saw ON. Release the trigger
switch to turn the saw OFF.
NOTE: Make the ON/OFF switch
childproof. Insert a padlock, or chain
with padlock, through the hole (2)
in the trigger and lock the tool’s
switch, preventing children and other
unqualified users from turning the
machine on.
SLIDING FENCE (FIG. 26)
1. Unlock the fence locking lever (1)
by pushing it toward the rear of the
machine.
2. Extend the fence (2) by sliding it
out. Lock the fence locking lever (1)
by pulling it in toward the fence.
NOTE: When transporting the saw,
always secure the sliding fence in
the collapsed position and locking it.
SLIDE CARRIAGE SYSTEM (FIG. 27)
1. For chop cutting operations on
small workpieces, slide the cutting
head assembly completely toward
the rear of the unit and tighten the
slide carriage lock knob (1).
WARNING! The sliding fence must
be extended when making any bevel
cut. Failure to extend the sliding
fence will not allow enough space
for the blade to pass through which
could result in serious injury. At
extreme miter or bevel angles the
saw blade may also contact the
fence.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of
injury, return slide carriage to the
full rear position after each crosscut
operation.
