soon as the switch trigger (A) Fig. 11, is released, the electric brake

is activated and stops the blade in seconds.

WARNING: Sharp Moving Blade blade. After completing

cut, release switch trigger (A) Fig. 11, to activate blade brake.

Keep cuttinghead down until blade has come to a complete

stop.

WARNING: The torque developed during braking may

loosen the arbor screw (E) Fig. 45. The arbor screw should be

checked periodically and tightened if necessary.

LOCKING THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION

important: When the miter saw is not in use, the switch should be

locked in the "OFF" position using a padlock (B) Fig. 12, with a

3/16 in. diameter shackle to prevent unauthorized use of the saw.

ROTATING THE TABLE FOR MITER CUTTING

Your miter saw will cut any angle from a straight 90° cut to 47° right

and left. Turn the lock handle (A) Fig. 13 counter-clockwise one or

two turns, depress the index lever (B), and move the control arm to

the desired angle. Tighten the lock handle (A).

The miter saw is equipped with positive stops at the 0°, 22.5°,

31.62°, and 45° right and left positions. Loosen the lock handle (A)

Fig. 14 and move the control arm until the bottom of the index lever

(B) engages into one of the positive stops, four of which are shown

at (C). Tighten the lock handle (A). To disengage the positive stop,

depress the index lever (B).

A triangle indicator (D) Fig. 15 is provided on the miter scale at the

31.62° right and left miter positions for cutting crown molding. (Refer

to the “CUTTING CROWN MOLDING” section of this manual).

IMPORTANT: Always tighten the lock handle (A) Fig. 14 before

cutting.

ADJUSTING THE SLIDING FIT BETWEEN THE MOVABLE TABLE

AND THE BASE

WARNING: DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM

THE POWER SOURCE .

To adjust the sliding fit between the movable table and the base,

turn the nut (A) Fig. 14A clockwise to increase the

sliding fit (opposite to decrease the fit). This adjustment should not

be so tight that it restricts the rotating movement of the table, or so

loose that it affects the accuracy of the saw.

POINTER AND SCALE

The pointer (E) Fig. 15 indicates the angle of cut. Each line on the

scale (F) represents 1 degree. When you move the pointer from one

line to the next on the scale, you change the angle of cut by 1 degree.

ADJUSTING THE POINTER

To adjust the pointer (E) Fig. 16, loosen the screw (G), adjust the

pointer (E), and tighten the screw.

LOCKING THE CUTTINGHEAD IN THE DOWN POSITION

To transport the saw, always lock the cuttinghead in the down

position. Lower the cuttinghead (A) Fig.17, and push the cuttinghead

lock pin (B) into the hole in the cutting arm until it locks the

cuttinghead.

IMPORTANT: Carrying the machine by the switch handle will

cause misalignment. Always lift the machine by the base or by

the carrying handle (See Fig. 20).

TILTING THE CUTTINGHEAD FOR BEVEL CUTTING

IMPORTANT: Move the sliding fence to provide clearance for the

blade and guard. The degree of tilt determines how far to move the

sliding fence. Refer to the section “Adjusting Sliding Fence”.

You can tilt the cuttinghead of your compound miter saw to cut any

bevel angle from a 90° straight cut off to a 45° left bevel angle.

Loosen the bevel lock handle (A) Fig. 18, tilt the cutting arm (B) to the

desired angle, and tighten the lock handle (A).

Positive stops are provided to rapidly position the saw blade at 90°
