WARNING
(polyurethanes, linseed oil, etc.)
workpieces can self-ignite in the dust bag or
elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce the risk of
fire, empty the dust bag frequently and never
store or leave a saw without totally emptying its
dust bag.
The dust port at the back of the saw can be con-
nected to a standard workshop vacuum hose or the
included dust bag. Leave the dust bag open to direct
dust down into a garbage can.
To install, push and twist the hose or dust bag onto
the dust port.
Using Face Boards
When using face boards, secure them using the
mounting holes in the fences. Face boards place dis-
tance between the fence and the workpiece, providing
improved support for some workpieces. Workpiece
splintering can be reduced by using face boards.
Selecting, Installing, and Changing Blades
Always use clean, sharp blades. Dull blades tend
to overload the tool, bind, and cause pinching. Use
only 7-1/4" sliding miter saw blades rated at least
5000 RPM.
1. Remove battery pack.
2. Lower the saw head.
3. Raise the lower guard and hold up while raising
the saw head. Let go of the lower guard. The lower
guard will remain up in the blade-changing OPEN
position. WARNING! Be careful not to lower the
guard head while changing the blade; the lower
guard will fall back into place to cover the blade
and could pinch hands and fingers.
4. Press in the spindle lock and rotate the spindle/
blade until the lock engages.
5. Use the wrench to loosen and remove the left-hand
thread blade bolt (clockwise).
6. Remove the outer blade flange and blade. Wipe
the flanges and spindle to remove dust and debris.
Inspect the parts for damage. Replace if needed.
7. Match the arrow direction on the blade with the
arrow direction on the lower guard. Slide the blade
onto the spindle.
8. Install the outer blade flange. The flat side of the
flange must rest against the blade.
9. Press in the spindle lock and rotate the blade until
the lock engages. Insert and securely tighten the
blade bolt (counterclockwise) with the wrench.
10. Move hands out of the guard area and lower
11. Check the clearance between the blade, kerf

either in front or behind the saw blade. The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured. Saw head
may slide/move, putting your safety at risk. Always
wait for the blade to stop completely before raising
the head, moving workpiece or changing settings.
Be cautious of pitchy, knotty, wet or warped work-
pieces. These materials are likely to create pinching
conditions. Workpieces that bow and pinch may
result in kick back. Inspect for and remove nails
before cutting. Always keep blades clean and sharp;
otherwise the blade produces a narrow kerf and is
likely to be pinched by the workpiece. This tool is not
recommended for cutting ferrous metals such as iron
and steel. See Applications for a more complete list
of materials that can be cut.
Always support the workpiece during operation.
Otherwise, the workpiece may pull up and into the
saw. WARNING! Use clamps to support the work-
piece whenever possible to keep hands far from
the blade. Do not use this saw to cut pieces that are
held by hand or too small to be securely clamped.
