FEATURES
MITER LOCK LEVER
See Figure 4.
The miter lock lever securely locks the saw at the desired
miter angle. Push the lever down to lock the saw in place.
To release the saw, lift the miter lock lever and depress the
detent release button.
POSITIVE STOPS ON MITER TABLE
Positive stops have been provided at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°,
and 45°. The 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, and 45° positive stops
have been provided on both the left and right side of the
miter table.
SELF-RETRACTING LOWER BLADE GUARD
The lower blade guard is made of shock-resistant, see-
through plastic that provides protection from each side of
the blade. It retracts over the upper blade guard as the saw
is lowered into the workpiece.
SPINDLE LOCK BUTTON
See Figure 5.
A spindle lock button has been provided for locking the
spindle which keeps the blade from rotating. Unplug the saw.
Depress and hold the lock button while installing, changing,
or removing blade only.
SLIDING MITER FENCES
The sliding miter fences on your compound miter saw have
been provided to help secure the workpiece when making
cuts; the portion of the miter fence located farthest from the
blade is larger to provide additional vertical support.
The sliding feature makes it easy to remove or adjust the
position of the fences and allow for clearance of the saw arm
when making bevel or compound cuts. Loosen the fence
screw before attempting to slide the miter fence. Once the
desired position of the miter fence is determined, tighten the
fence screw to secure the sliding fence.
SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 5.
To prevent unauthorized use of the compound miter saw,
disconnect it from the power supply and lock the switch in
the OFF position. To lock the switch, install a padlock (not
included) through the hole in the switch trigger and make
certain the switch is inoperable. If the switch is still operable
with the padlock installed, a padlock with a larger shackle
diameter must be used. Store the padlock key in another
location.
