OPERATION
WARNING!
Before operating the miter saw, make sure to equip yourself with a dust mask, ear protection,
and safety glasses for protection from possible injuries. Tie back long hair and do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. DO NOT look into the laser beam, this can cause serious eye damage or blindness. Do not wear gloves
while operating the saw.
4. SET UP WORKPIECE
Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge securely
against the fence.
Warped Boards:
If the board is warped, place the concave
side against the table (Fig. 15).
CAUTION:
The board could
break and jam the blade if the convex side is placed against
the table.
Long Boards:
When cutting long workpieces, support the
opposite end of the material with the table extensions, a
roller stand or a work surface that is level with the saw
table.
5. SECURE WORKPIECE
Secure the workpiece with the hold-down clamp on the
fixed table whenever possible to prevent the material from
moving during the cutting operations. See section, "Install-
ing the Clamp Assembly" on page 13.
6. CHECK BEFORE OPERATION
• Check that the miter table does not rotate and the saw
arm does not bevel.
• Check that the workpiece is fully supported, against the
fence and securely clamped down.
• Check that you have the proper blade for the material
you are cutting.
• Without turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the
cutting operation to check that nothing is obstructing
the path of the saw.
