Securing workpiece
WARNING:
It is extremely important to always
secure the workpiece correctly with the proper type
of vise. Failure to do so may result in serious personal
injury and cause damage to the tool and/or the workpiece.
WARNING:
After a cutting operation, do not
raise the saw blade until it has come to a complete
stop. The raising of a coasting saw blade may result in
serious personal injury and damage to the workpiece.
WARNING:
When cutting a workpiece that
is longer than the support base of the miter saw,
the material should be supported the entire length
beyond the support base and at the same height
to keep the material level. Proper workpiece support
will help avoid blade pinch and possible kickback
which may result in serious personal injury. Do not rely
solely on the vertical vise to secure the workpiece. Thin
material tends to sag. Support workpiece over its entire
length to avoid blade pinch and possible KICKBACK.

Guide fences
WARNING:
Before operating the tool, make
sure that the sliding fence is secured with the
clamping screw firmly.
WARNING:
Before bevel-cutting, make sure
that no part of the tool, especially the circular saw
blade, contacts the fences when fully lowering and
raising the handle in any position and while mov-
ing the carriage through its full range of travel.
If the tool or circular saw blade makes contact with
the fence, this may result in kickback or unexpected
movement of the material and serious personal injury.
This tool is equipped with the sliding fence. When performing
left bevel cuts, loosen the clamping screw and move the slid-
ing fence so that it does not hinder the carriage movement.
Secure the sliding fence by tightening the clamping screw.

Vertical vise
WARNING:
The workpiece must be secured
firmly against the turn base and guide fence with
the vise during all operations. If the workpiece is
not properly secured against the fence, the material
may move during the cutting operation causing pos-
sible damage to the saw blade, causing the material
to be thrown and loss of control resulting in serious
personal injury.
The vertical vise can be installed into the holes on the
left side of the base, right side of the base, or left side of
the sub base.
Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the
turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting
position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.
Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the vertical
vise when lowering the handle all the way. If some part
contacts the vertical vise, re-position the vertical vise.

Sub base
WARNING:
so it is level with the top surface of the turn base
for an accurate cut and to prevent dangerous loss
of tool control. Proper workpiece support will help
avoid blade pinch and possible kickback which may
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
always be sure that the sub bases are secured by
the thumb screws.
To hold long workpieces horizontally, sub bases are
provided on both sides of the tool. Loosen the thumb
screws and extend the sub bases to the appropriate
length for holding the workpiece. Then tighten the
thumb screws.
