UNPACKING

Lift the saw arm by the handle. Hand pressure should
remain on the saw arm to prevent sudden rise upon
release of the tie wrap.

Examine all parts to make sure no breakage or damage
has occurred during shipping.

If any parts are missing, do not attempt to assemble the miter
saw, plug in the power cord, or turn the switch on until the
missing parts are obtained and are installed correctly. Call
1-800-525-2579 for assistance if any parts are missing or
damaged.

WARNING:

If any parts are missing, do not operate this tool until the
missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so could result
in possible serious personal injury.

Your Compound Miter Saw has been shipped completely
assembled except for the blade, miter lock handle, dust guide
or dust bag, table extensions, work clamp, and stop block.

Remove all loose parts from the carton. Separate and
check with the list of loose parts.

 See Figure 1.

Remove the packing materials from around your saw.

Carefully lift saw from the carton by the carrying handle
and place it on a level work surface. Although small, this
saw is heavy. To avoid back injury, get help when needed.

Do not discard the packing materials until you have
carefully inspected the saw, identified all loose parts, and
satisfactorily operated your new saw.

Your saw has been shipped with the saw arm secured in
the down position. To release the saw arm, push down on
top of saw arm and cut the tie-wrap.

The following tools (not included) are needed for checking adjustments of your saw or for installing the blade:
