OPERATION
Making A Miter Cut Continued
IMPORTANT:
Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation. This will make
sure that no problems will occur when cut is made.
NOTE:
If the board is warped, see section Special Cuts “Cutting warped or Bowed Material" for
special instructions.
4. Grasp the control handle firmly then squeeze the trigger switch (6). Allow the blade to reach
maximum speed.
5. Slowly lower the saw blade downward into and through the workpiece.
6.
(See Figure 14)
On wider work pieces you will have to slide the blade while making the cut. To
unlock the slide, loosen the slide lock knob (1) at the back of the saw.
7. Release the trigger switch and allow the saw
blade to come to a complete stop before
raising the saw blade out of the workpiece.
Remove workpiece from table.
Making a Bevel Cut
1.
(See Figure 15)
Raise the control handle (1)
up to allow positioning of the workpiece.
2. Loosen the bevel locking lever (2), rotate the
saw cutting arm to desired cutting angle on
the scale. Then tighten bevel locking lever.
3. Grasp the workpiece firmly with one hand and
secure it flat on the miter table with one edge
securely against the fence (3). Turn on the
laser-sighting guide. Adjust the workpiece to
align the cut-line with the Red laser beam or
saw blade. Use the material clamp
when possible.
CAUTION:
When cutting a large workpiece,
make sure its entire length is properly
supported. If necessary, use a roller stand
(not included) with a larger workpiece.
IMPORTANT:

ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
The miter saw must be assembled and adjusted before use. DO NOT plug unit
into power source until the unit has been completely assembled and all the accuracy
adjustments has been set.
Install Dust Bag
NOTE:
The purpose of the dust bag is to collect fine particles of dust to reduce inhalation
exposure to the user. The dust bag will not prevent large saw dust particles from the
work area.

1.
(See Figure 3)
Squeeze the dust bag
clamp (1), located inside the end of the dust
bag to install.
2. Attach dust bag to dust shoot (2) located
behind saw blade.
Work Clamp
WARNING:
Work clamp may interfere with
blade guard in some operations. Always
make sure blade guard is clear of work
clamps before operation.
1.
(See Figure 4)
Insert work clamp (1) into
either hole in the saw fence.
2. Rotate knob (2) clockwise to
tighten or counter-clockwise to loosen.
Support Extension Bars
NOTE:
Using the work support extension bars
is optional. Operator should install these
components when necessary for safe
operation of the tool.
1.
(See Figure 4)
Insert both work support
extension bars (3) into the holes at left and
right sides of base.
2. Secure extensions in place by tightening the work support clamp screws (4).
Mounting the Saw
The Miter Saw must be mounted to a suitable work bench, support or saw table before use.
Mounting holes are provided in each of the four legs of the base for use with bolts (not included)
for this purpose. This will help prevent tipping or movement of the saw, preventing injury.
