REMOVING THE BLADE (FIG. 11)
1. Remove the battery packs or power supply.
2. Raise the arm to the upper position and raise the lower guard (D) as far as possible.
3. Loosen, but do not remove guard bracket screw (Z) until the bracket (AT) can be raised far enough to access the blade
screw (AB). Lower guard will remain raised due to the position of the guard bracket screw.

4. Depress the spindle lock button (AA) while carefully rotating the saw blade by hand until the lock engages.
5. Keeping the button depressed, use the other hand and the wrench (V) provided to loosen the blade screw (AB). (Turn
clockwise, left-hand threads.)
6. Remove the blade screw (AB), outer blade washer (AC), and blade (AD). The inner blade washer (AE), and if used, the 1"
(25.4 mm) blade adapter (AF), may be left on the spindle.
NOTE: For blades with a blade hole of 5/8" (15.88 mm), the 1" (25.4 mm) blade adapter is not used.

INSTALLING A BLADE (FIG. 11)
1. Remove the battery packs or power supply.
2. With the arm raised, the lower guard (D) held open and the guard bracket (AT) raised, place the blade on the spindle, onto
the blade adapter (AF) (if using a blade with a 1" [25.4 mm] diameter blade hole) and against the inner blade clamp (AE)
with the teeth at the bottom of the blade pointing toward the back of the saw.
3. Assemble the outer blade clamp onto the spindle.
4. Install the blade screw (AB) (with integral washer) and, engaging the spindle lock, tighten the screw firmly with wrench
provided. (Turn counterclockwise, left-hand threads.)
NOTE: When using blades with a 5/8" (15.88 mm) diameter blade hole, the blade adapter will not be used and should be stored
in a safe place for future use. The separate blade adapter is not available on all models.
5. Return the guard bracket to its original position and firmly tighten the guard bracket screw (Z) to hold bracket in place.
WARNING:
The guard bracket must be returned to its original position and the guard bracket screw
tightened before activating the saw. Failure to do so may allow the guard to contact the spinning saw blade
resulting in damage to the saw and severe personal injury.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove the battery packs or power
supply before transporting, making any adjustments, cleaning, repairing, or removing/installing attachments or
accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Your miter saw is fully and accurately adjusted at the factory at the time of manufacture. If readjustment due to shipping and
handling or any other reason is required, follow the instructions below to adjust your saw.
Once made, these adjustments should remain accurate. Take a little time now to follow these directions carefully to maintain the
accuracy of which your saw is capable.
MITER SCALE (FIG. 12)
Place a square against the saw's fence and blade. (Do not touch the tips of the blade
teeth with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate measure ment.) Unlock
miter lock lever (F) and swing the miter arm until the miter latch locks it at the 0
miter position. Do not lock miter lock lever (F). If the saw blade is not exactly
perpendicular to the fence, loosen the three screws (L) that hold the miter scale
(K) to the base and move the scale left or right until the blade is perpendicular to
the fence, as measured with the square. Retighten the three screws. Pay no
attention to the reading of the miter pointer at this time.
MITER POINTER (FIG. 7, 12)
To unlock, lift the miter lock lever (F) up and squeeze the miter release lever (G) to
move the miter arm to the zero position. With the miter lock lever unlocked allow
the miter latch to snap into place as you rotate the miter arm to zero. Observe
the pointer and miter scale through the viewing opening shown in Figure 7. If the
AE
pointer does not indicate exactly zero, loosen the screw holding the pointer in
place, reposition the pointer and tighten the screw.
