WHEN SAW IS RUNNING
MAKING A BASIC CUT
Before cutting, if the saw makes an unfamiliar noise or
vibrates, stop immediately. Turn the saw OFF. Unplug the
saw. Do not restart until finding and correcting the problem.
TURNING THE SAW ON (FIG. CC)
This miter saw is equipped with an ON/OFF trigger switch
(1). When the trigger switch is squeezed, the miter saw will
be turned on.
NOTE : To make the ON/OFF switch childproof. Insert a
padlock (not provided), or chain with padlock, through the
hole (2) in the trigger switch, locking the tool’s switch,
preventing children and other unqualified users from turning
the machine on.
NOTE : The miter saw is equipped with an electric blade brake.
When the trigger switch is released, the blade brake will stop
the blade within approximately 6 seconds.
1. Unlock the fence cam locking lever (1) by pushing it
toward the rear of the machine.
2. Extend the fence (2) by sliding it out. Lock the fence cam
locking lever (1) by pulling it in toward the fence.

transporting
the saw,
always secure
the sliding
fence in
the collapsed
position and
locking it.
Starting a cut :
• Place hands at least 7.5 in. away from the path of the
blade – out of the “no-hands zone” (see (1) in Fig. BB on
next page).
• Hold workpiece firmly against the fence to prevent
movement toward the blade.
• Turn the laser guide on for prealignment of your cut.
• With the power switch OFF, bring the saw blade down to
the workpiece to see the cutting path of the blade.
• Squeeze trigger switch to start saw.
• Lower blade into workpiece with a firm downward motion.
Finishing a cut :
• Hold the cutting arm in the down position.
• Release trigger switch and wait for all moving parts to
stop before moving your hands and raising the cutting
arm.
• If the blade doesn’t stop
within 6 seconds, unplug
the saw and follow the
instructions in
TROUBLESHOOTING
GUIDE section.
Before freeing jammed
material :
• Release trigger
switch.
• Wait for all moving
parts to stop.
• Unplug the miter
saw.
WARNING
WARNING
Do not allow familiarity from frequent
use of your miter saw to result in a careless
mistake. A careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury .
Body and Hand Position (Fig. BB) Never
place hands near the cutting area.
Proper positioning of your body and hands
when operating the miter saw will make
cutting easier and safer. Keep children
away. Keep all visitors at a safe distance from the miter
saw. Make sure bystanders are clear of the saw and
workpiece. Don’t force the saw. It will do the job better
and safer at its designed rate.

BASIC SAW OPERATIONS
SLIDING FENCE (FIG. DD)
WARNING
WARNING
For your convenience, your saw has a
blade brake. The brake is not a safety device.
Never rely on it to replace the proper use of the
guard on your saw. If the blade doesn’t stop within
approximately 6 seconds, wait for the blade to
stop, unplug the saw and contact Sears or another
qualified service dealer .
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 .
