UNPACKING, ASSEMBLY
AND ADJUSTMENTS
UNPACKING
Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your King Canada Power tool is faulty or that a part is missing. If you find
anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in
serious personal injury.
1. Remove all loose parts from the carton.
2. Remove the packing materials from around the saw.
3. Carefully lift the saw from the carton and place it on a level work surface.
4. The saw has been shipped with the saw head locked in the down position. To release the saw head, push down on the top of the saw arm,
pull then turn the the saw head release knob (A) Fig.15.
WARNING: Do not lift the saw while holding on to the guards. Use the top mounted carrying handle.
INSTALLING REAR SUPPORT
Before using this miter saw, it is recommended to install the rear support (A) Fig.3.
During an operation, if the saw head is released accidentally, the saw head will
swing upwards, if this rear support is not installed, the entire saw could pivot
backwards and possibly create a dangerous situation. Insert the rear support into
the two mouting holes at the back of the saw base and secure it in place by
tightening screw (B). This rear support should be installed even if this saw is
mounted to a workbench.
BENCH MOUNTING
The saw base has holes to facilitate bench mounting.
1. Fix the saw to a bench using 4 hex. bolts and hex. nuts.
2. If desired, you can mount the saw to a piece of 13mm or thicker plywood which
can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites and
reclamped.
CAUTION
: Make sure that the mounting surface is not warped as an uneven
surface can cause binding and inaccurate sawing.
INSTALLING DUST BAG
The dust bag (A) Fig.4 fits into the dust bag adaptor (B) at the rear of the saw head.
For more efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no more than half full.
This allows better air flow through the bag and improves dust collection.
MITER TABLE LOCK KNOB AND POSITIVE STOPS
For all operations, the miter table must always be locked, the miter table lock
knob (A) Fig.5 is used to lock or unlock the table at the desired miter angle. To
change the angle of the table, simply turn the saw head, once the table miter angle
is set, use the miter lock knob to lock the table.
WARNING! Before making any cut, make sure the miter lock knob is fully
tightened.
There are positive stops at 0

to the left and right. While the
table is being rotated, the table will stop at the next positive stop. Once the desired
angle is obtained, use the miter lock bouton to lock the table.
