OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CARRYING THE CHOP SAW
When carrying the chop saw from one
location to another, always lower the
swing arm (1) to its lowest position and
loop the lowest safety chain link (2) over
the pin (3). This will hold the blade and
swing arm in the “down” position for
easier lifting of the chop saw. Once the
safety chain has been placed over the
pin, carefully lift the chop saw using the
carrying handle.
SELECTING THE WORK SURFACE
It is important to place the chop saw on
a solid, flat work surface that will not
shift during operation of the chop saw.
Locating the chop saw near an electrical
outlet will eliminate the need for an
extension cord.
Hot metal sparks and sharp metal pieces
will damage the work surface to some
degree. Make sure you consider this fact
when selecting the work surface. A non-
flammable surface, such as a metal bench,
will be less likely to be damaged during
cutting.
WARNING!
Always disconnect your chop saw from the
power source when carrying it to another
location, replacing the cut-off blade,
clamping material in the vise, adjusting the
guard, cleaning or when not in use.
Disconnecting the chop saw will prevent
accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury.
WARNING!
The chop saw is very heavy. For safety in
carrying the chop saw, always lift it using
one hand on the carrying handle and the
other under the base.
SETTING THE DEPTH STOP
The maximum cut depth is controlled by
adjusting the depth stop.
1. Lift the swing arm (1) upward as far as
it will go.
2. Loosen the depth stop lock nut (2) by
turning it counter-clockwise using a
14 mm wrench.
3. Turn the depth stop screw (3) to raise
or lower it. Adjust until the cut-off
blade enters the base slot no more
than 3/16” (5 mm) when the swing
arm is fully lowered and contacts the
top of the depth stop screw.
4. When the depth stop screw is
correctly set, lock it in place by
tightening the lock nut clockwise.
WARNING!
Never place the chop saw near any
flammable liquids or items that can be
damaged by the sparks thrown by the chop
saw during cutting. The hot sparks can
ignite flammable liquids.
