CUTTING WITH YOUR COMPOUND MITER
SAW
WARNING:
When using a work clamp or C-clamp to secure your
workpiece, clamp workpiece on one side of the blade
only. The workpiece must remain free on one side of the
blade to prevent the blade from binding in workpiece. The
workpiece binding the blade will cause motor stalling and
kickback. This situation could cause an accident resulting
in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER move the workpiece or make adjustment to any
cutting angle while the saw is running and the blade is
rotating. Any slip can result in contact with the blade
causing serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not try to cut narrow pieces using the sliding feature.
Failure to heed this warning could result in serious per-
sonal injury.
LED LIGHTING SYSTEM
See Figure 29.
WARNING:
Do not stare into the light beam (not even from a dis-
tance). Staring into the light beam may result in serious
injury or vision loss.
The LED lighting system casts the shadow of the blade onto
the workpiece. This results in greater accuracy of cuts and
requires no adjustments.
To use this feature, press the LED switch or the trigger to
activate the light.
Bring the saw arm down so the blade is approximately
1/4 in. from the workpiece. The shadow of the blade will be
projected onto the workpiece, indicating where the blade
teeth will make contact as the cut is made.
NOTE: After pressing and releasing either the LED switch or
the trigger, The LED light will remain lit for 15 seconds and
then time out to save battery power.
