provided on each side of the saw arm. These
adjustment screws are for making fine adjust-
ments at 0° and 45°.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
An electric brake has been provided to quickly
stop blade rotation after the switch is re-
leased.
FENCE
The fence on your compound miter saw has
been provided as a support to hold your work-
piece securely against when making all cuts.
SELF-RETRACTING LOWER BLADE GUARD
The lower blade guard is made of shock-
resistant, seethrough plastic that provides
protection from each side of the blade. It re-
tracts over the upper blade guard as the saw is
lowered into the workpiece.
REAR BRACKET
WARNING: A rear bracket is included
with this miter saw to prevent tipping if the
saw arm is released suddenly. Do not use this
saw before pulling the rear bracket out and
securely mounting the saw to a work surface.
The rear bracket is
pushed into the base
for shipping purposes.
Before usage, the rear
bracket must be fully
extended to prevent
tipping.
Grasp the rear bracket with one hand and pull
on the bracket until it is fully extended.
MOUNTING HOLES
WARNING: Always make sure your com-
pound miter saw is securely mounted to a
workbench or an approved workstand. Failure
to do so could result in an accident resulting in
possible serious personal injury.
Your compound miter saw should be perma-
nently mounted to a firm supporting surface
such as a workbench. Four bolt holes have
been provided in the saw base for this pur-
pose. Each of the four mounting holes should
be bolted securely using 3/8 in. machine bolts,
lock washers, and hex nuts (not included). Bolts
should be of sufficient length to accommodate
the saw base, lock washers, hex nuts, and the
thickness of the workbench. Tighten all four
bolts securely. Carefully check the workbench
after mounting to make sure that no move-
ment can occur during use. If any tipping, slid-
ing, or walking is noted, secure the workbench
to the floor before operating.

WORK CLAMP

The work clamp pro-
vides greater control
by clamping the work-
piece to the fence or
the saw table.
It also prevents the workpiece from creeping
toward the saw blade. This is very helpful
when cutting compound miters.
Depending on the cutting operation and the
size of the workpiece, it may be necessary to
use a C-clamp instead of the work clamp to
secure the workpiece prior to making the cut.
clamp assembly may interfere with the opera-
tion of the blade guard assembly. Always make
sure there is no interference with the blade
guard prior to beginning any cutting operation
to reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
To install the work clamp:
• Place the shaft of the work clamp in either
hole on the saw table base.
Rear bracket
• Rotate the knob on the work clamp to move
it in or out as needed.
TO INSTALL / REPLACE BLADE
blade capacity of your saw. Never use a blade
that is too thick to allow outer blade washer
to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger
blades will come in contact with the blade
guards, while thicker blades will prevent the
blade screw from securing the blade on the
spindle. Either of these situations could result
in a serious accident and can cause serious per-
sonal injury.
