To avoid possible hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when using miter saw for hours at a time. • Tie back long hair. • - Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wrist watches) They can get caught and draw you into moving parts. For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along with safety goggles. down to the table top. Inspect your workpiece • Never use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic miter saw table or to help feed, support or pull the workpiece. • Do not use this saw to cut pieces too small to let you easily hold the work while you keep the thumb side of your index (pointer) finger against the outside edge of the fence. • Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be cut. Plan your work to avoid THROWBACKS - when the workpiece binds on the blade and is torn from your hands. Plan the way you will hold the workpiece from start to finish: Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move into the blade. • When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the blade and be torn from your hands. A piece of molding, for example, must lie flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not let it twist, rock or slip while being cut. Don't Overreach. Keep good footing and balance. Keep your face and body to one side of saw blade, out of line with a possible throwback. Never cut Freehand • • Cut only one workpiece at a time. • Brace your workpiece solidly against the fence and table top so it will not rock or twist during the cut. • Make sure there's no debris between the workpiece and its supports. • two, • Keep the cut off piece free to move sideways after it's cut off. Otherwise it could get wedged against the blade and could be thrown violently. • Clear everything except the workpiece and related support devices off the table before turning the miter On. • Secure Work. Use clamps or a vise to help hold the work when it's practical. Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward workpieces: • dowel rods, while being this, always your work- WARNING: If planning to cut aluminum or other non-ferrous metals: Under adverse conditions, the blade can grab and throw the workpiece suddenly and unexpectedly. To avoid injury, follow all applicable safety instructions, as you normally would, and: • Use only sawblades specifically recommended for non-ferrous metal cutting. • Do not cut metal workpieces that must be hand held. Use auxiliary clamps or other equipment as needed. ° Cut non-ferrous metals only if you are experienced or under the supervision of an experienced person. Make sure no gaps between the workpiece, fence and table will let the workpiece shift after it is cut in saw Properly support round material such as or tubing. They have a tendency to roll cut, causing the blade to "bite." To avoid use a fixture designed to properly hold piece. Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc.) for any workpiece large enough to tip when not held Whenever the miter saw and workpiece. Saw Is Running Never confine the piece being cut off. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or use length stops against it while the blade is spinning. It must be free to move sideways on its own. If confined, it could get wedged against the blade and thrown violently. WARNING: Don't allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your miter saw) cause a careless mistake. A careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a severe injury. Let the blade reach full speed before cutting. Don't Force Tool. It will do the job better and safer at its designed rate. Feed the saw into the workpiece only fast enough to let the blade cut without bogging down or binding. Before starting your cut, watch the miter saw while it runs. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn the saw off. Unplug the saw. Do not restart until finding and correcting the problem. Keep Children Away. Keep all visitors a safe distance from the miter saw. Make sure bystanders are clear of 4 Before freeing jammed material • Turn switch"OFF".

Safety Instructions For Basic Saw Operations Before Using The Miter Saw WARNING: To avoid mistakes that could cause serious, permanent injury, do not plug the miter saw in until the following steps are completed. i • Learn the use and function of the ON-OFF trigger switch, upper and lower blade guards, handle latch, bevel clamp, cover plate stop screw, and fence clamps (See "Alignment" section). • Review and understand all safety instructions and operating procedures in this manual. Review the maintenance methods for this miter saw. (See "Maintenance" section). • • • Alignment. (See "AlignmentJAdjustment" section.) The saw is properly mounted. (See "Mounting Miter Saw" section). When Installing or Moving the Miter Saw • To avoid injury or death from electrical shock: Make sure your fingers do not touch the plug's metal prongs when plugging or unplugging the miter saw. Before Each Use the arm all the way down, then let it rise up until it stops by itself. Check the lower guard to see if it closed fully. If it did not, follow the instructions in the "Trouble Shooting" section. Inspect you saw. Disconnect The Miter Saw. To avoid injury from accidental starting, unplug the saw, before changing the setup, changing the blade or adjusting anything. Other conditions that may affect the way the miter saw works. Compare the direction of rotation arrow on the guard to the direction arrow on blade. The blade teeth should always point downward at the front of the saw. Keep Guards in Place, in working order, and in proper adjustment. If any part of this miter saw is missing, bent, or broken in any way, or any electrical parts don't work, turn the saw off and unplug it. Replace damaged, missing, or failed parts before using the saw again. Tighten the arbor screw. Tighten the cover plate stop screw. Check Damaged Parts. Check for: • Alignment of moving parts, • Damaged electric cords, Maintain Tools With Care. Keep the miter saw clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating DON'T put lubricants on the blade while it's spinning. Binding of moving parts, • Broken parts, • Stable mounting • Function of arm return spring and lower guard: Push Remove Adjusting before turning it on. Keys And Wrenches from tool To Avoid Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown Pieces • • • Use Only Recommended Accessories. (See page 24). Consult this Owner's manual for recommended accessories. Follow the instructions that come with the accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons. • Choose the right 8-1/4 inch diameter blade for the material and the type of cutting you plan to do. Make sure the blade is sharp, undamaged and properly aligned. With the saw unplugged, push the powerhead all the way down. Hand spin the blade and check for clearance. Tilt the power-head to 45 degree bevel and repeat the check. If the blade hits anything, make the adjustments shown in the Plan Ahead To Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Maintaining Maximum Cutting Capacity section. Make sure the blade and arbor collars are clean. • Make sure the co!lars' recessed sides are facing the blade. • Using 1/2-inch box end wrench, make sure the arbor cap screw is firmly hand tightened. Make sure all clamps and locks are tight and there is no excessive play in any parts. • • Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery. To avoid burns or other fire damage, never use the miter saw near flammable liquids, vapors or gases. Face, Ears Avoid Accidental Starting. Make sure switch is "OFF" before plugging miter saw into a power outlet. Know your miter saw. Read and understand the owner's manual and labels affixed to the tool. Learn its application and limitations as well as the specific potential hazards peculiar to this tool. To avoid injury from accidental contact with moving parts, don't do layout, assembly, or setup work on the miter saw while any parts are moving. 14 Plan your work. Use The Right Tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed to do. Use a different tool for any workpiece that can't be held in a solidly braced, fixed position. CAUTION: This machine is not designed for cutting ferrous metals (steel, iron and iron based metals). Use this miter saw to cut only wood, wood like products or soft metals like aluminum. Other material may shatter, bind on the blade, or create other dangers. CAUTION: When cutting any metals, sparks or hot fragments could cause a fire. To avoid this, disconnect any dust collecting hose from the miter saw, and remove all traces of wood dust from inside dust traps in the miter saw. Dress for safety Any power miter saw can throw foreign objects into the eyes. This can result in permanent eye damage. Wear safety goggles (not glasses) that comply with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package). Everyday eyeglasses have only impact resistance lenses. They are not safety glasses. Safety goggles are avialable at Sears retail stores. Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could seriously hurt you when they break. • Plan the way you will hold the workpiece from start to finish: Tie back long hair. • Roll long sleeves above the elbow. • Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when using miter saw for hours at a time. • For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along with safety goggles. • Never use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic miter saw table or to help feed, support or pull the workpiece. • Do not use this saw to cut pieces too small to let you easily hold the work while you keep the thumb side of your index (pointer) finger against the outside edge of the fence. • When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan you work so it will not slip and pinch the blade and be torn from your hands. A piece of molding, for example, must lie flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not let it twist, rock or slip while being cut. • Properly support round material such as dowel rods, or tubing. They have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite". To avoid this, always use a fixture designed to properly hold your workpiece. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move into the blade. Don't Overreach. Keep good footing and balance. Keep your face and body to one side, out of line with a possible throwback. Never cut Freehand: • Brace your workpiece solidly against the fence and table top so it will not rock or twist during the cut. • Make sure there's no debris between the workpiece and its supports. • Make sure no gaps between the workpiece, fence and table will let the workpiece shift after it is cut in two. • Keep the cut off piece free to move sideways after it's cut off. Otherwise, it could get wedged against theblade and thrown violently. • Clear everything except the workpiece and related support devices off the table before turning the miter WARNING: If planning to cut aluminum or other non-ferrous metals: Under adverse conditions, the blade can grab and throw the workpiece suddenly and unexpectedly. To avoid injury, follow all applicable safety instructions, as you normally would, and: • Use only sawblades specifically recommended for non-ferrous metal cutting. • Do not cut metal workpieces that must be hand held. Use auxiliary clamps or other equipment as needed. • Cut non-ferrous metals only if you are experienced or under the supervision of an experienced person. saw on. Secure Work. Use clamps or a vise to help hold the work when it's practical. Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward workpieces: • • Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be cut. Plan your work to avoid THROWBACKS - when the workpiece binds on the blade and is torn from your hands. • draw you into moving parts. Wear nonslip footwear. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wrist watches). They can get caught and Inspect Your Workpiece • • Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc.) for any workpieces large enough to tip when not held down to the table top. 15 Safety Instructions Whenever For Basic Saw Operations (continued)Don't Force Tool. It will do the job better and safer at its designed rate. Feed the saw into the workpiece only fast enough to let the blade cut without bogging down or binding. Saw Is Running WARNING: Don't allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your miter saw) cause a careless mistake. A careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a severe injury. Before freeing jammed material: • Turn miter saw "OFF" by releasing trigger switch. • Unplug the miter saw. Before starting your cut, watch the miter saw while it runs. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn the saw off. Unplug the saw. Do not restart until finding and correcting the problem. • Wait for all moving parts to stop. Keep Children Away. Keep all visitors a safe distance from the miter saw. Make sure bystanders are clear of the miter saw and workpiece. • Release the switch, and wait for all moving parts to stop before moving your hands. After finishing a cut: • Keep holding the power head down. • If blade doesn't stop within 6 seconds, unplug the saw and follow the instructions in the Trouble Shooting section for fixing the blade brake before using the saw again. Never confine the piece being cut off. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or use length stops against it while the blade is spinning. It must be free to move sideways on its own. If confined, it could get wedged against the blade and thrown violently. Let the blade reach full speed before cutting. Make workshop child-proof. Lock the shop. Disconnect master switches. Store tool away from children and others not qualified to use the tool. Before Leaving The Saw Never Leave Tool Running Unattended. Turn power off. Wait for moving parts to stop. Basic Saw Operations WARNING: For your convenient use, your saw has a blade brake. The brake is not a safety device. Never rely on it to replace proper use of the guard on your saw. If the blade does not stop within 6 seconds, unplug the saw and follow the instructions in the Trouble Shooting section for fixing the brake before using saw again. Body and Hand Position Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating the miter saw will make cutting easier and safer. Never place hands near cutting area. Place hand at least 4" from path of blade. Hold workpiece firmly to the fence to prevent movement toward the blade. Keep hands in position until trigger has been released and the blade has completely stopped. Before making a cut, make a "dry run" with the power off so you can see the path of the blade. WARNING: Do not try to cut short pieces, you cannot properly support the workpiece and keep your hold down hand the required distance from the blade. 16 Miter Cut When a miter cut is required, loosen the miter lock knob, depress the index spring, and move the saw to the desired angle. Retighten miter lock knob. Do not stand in front of the saw table. Move with the handle to the miter angle to make the cut. E \ \ \ / \ / /__ WITH MOVE MITER FEET ANGLE Bevel Cut Model 113.235221 Compound Miter Saw Only: When a bevel cut is required, loosen bevel lock knob, tilt the blade to desired bevel angle. Lock the bevel lock knob. Stand to the left side of the handle to make the cut. .Ew.8EVE LOCK KNOB Overriding the Bevel Stops Use the 0 ° and 45 c bevel stops for precise, repeatable bevel indexing. Occasionally, when cutting a bevel or compound cut, you may need to set the bevel angle a small amount beyond the 0 ° or 45 ° bevel stop. This is very easily done by pulling the bevel index pin out and locking the bevel knob. PIN '@ \/ REAR, BEVELINDEX STOPS 17 BOTTOM VIEW FROM BACK Basic Saw Operations (Continued) Compound Cut Model 113.235221 Compound Miter Saw Only: When a compound cut is required, select the correct bevel and miter position. Move your feet and body with the handle to the desired miter angle to make the cut. Cutting Bowed Material Before cutting a workpiece, check to make sure it is not bowed. If it is bowed the workpiece must be positioned and cut as illustrated. Do not position workpiece incorrectly or try to cut the workpiece without the support of the fence. This will cause pinching of the workpiece on the blade. The workpiece could suddenly jump or move and your hand could hit the blade. CORRECT INCORRECT 18 Workpiece Support Long pieces need extra supports. The supports should be placed along the workpiece so the workpiece does not sag and your hand holding the workpiece is positioned 4" or more from the blade path. The support should let the workpiece lay fiat on the base and work table during the cutting operation. \' NOTE: When mounted on a large flat surface, the miter saw table is 3-1/2" high. Two finished 2x4's on their sides can be used as work support extension. Auxiliary Fence Certain types of molding need a fence face extension due to the size and position of the workpiece, Slots are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence. Get a straight piece of wood typically 1/2 inch thick by 3-1/4 inches high by 19-1/4 inches long. To attach auxiliary fence, place the piece of wood on the miter saw fence. Mark the locations from the backside of the miter saw fence. Drill .200"-.250" holes, then countersink the holes on front of wood to receive #10 flat head screws. Attach the auxiliary fence securely and make a full depth cut. This will create the blade slot. Check for interference between the auxiliary fence and lower blade guard. Correct any interference before proceeding. The auxiliary fence is used with the saw in the 0 ° bevel position. If a bevel cut is desired, the auxiliary fence will have to be removed. 19 Basic Saw Operations (Continued) MITER SAW FENCE AUXILIARY FENCE Cutting a Dimensional 4x4 (3-1/2" x 3-1/2" actual) with one cut. A dimensional 4x4 may be cut with one cut by attaching an auxiliary fence of 7/8 thickness, with screws to the miter saw fence as shown on previous page. MITER SAW FENCE --_ _--- Vertical Bevel Cutting To make a miter cut in a 2x4 workpiece (actual 1-5/8" x 3-1/2") in the vertical position (on edge) a spacer, such as the auxiliary fence described in the previous page, is required. WORKPIECE 3-1/2" !// 20 / I t MITER SAW /- TABLEI Helpful Hints When Cutting Compound Miters Tips for Cutting Compound Miters on Picture Frames and Boxes (Model 113.235221 Only) A compound miter is a cut requiring both a miter setting and bevel setting. A compound miter is used for making frames or boxes that have sloping sides and are wide at one end and narrow at the opposite end. Compound miters are "tricky" to make because the miter setting and bevel setting are directly related to each other. Every time the miter setting is changed the bevel setting must also be adjusted; likewise every adjustment to bevel requires a corresponding adjustment to miter. Because it may take several tries to obtain the desired angle it as advisable to make test cuts in a scrap piece of material. Tips for Cutting Moldings A compound miter saw is also excellent for cutting molding. Molding is sometimes difficult because in order to fit correctly it must be precisely cut. Cutting Base Moldings Base moldings and many other moldings can be cut on a miter saw. The set up of the saw depends on your molding and your application as shown. Always make sure moldings rest firmly against fence and table. Compound Cutting Crown Moldings Plan Ahead so that you are not tempted to reach across saw blade to steady newly severed workpiece. Crown Moldings can be cut using two methods, workpiece standing up (as it would be mounted on wall) and workpiece lying flat on table (see chart and illustration). Most Standard (U.S.) crown molding has a top rear angle (angle that fits next to ceiling) of 52 ° and a bottom rear angle (angle that fits against wall) of 38 ° . 1. Workpiece standing up, usually cut inverted from ceiling mounted orientation. Fixturing: Optional fence mounted crown molding jigs which locate workpiece. See recommended accessories. (Table clamp is helpful). Hand is holding workpiece to fence when the cuts are made. All cuts are made at 0° bevel setting and 45° miter (see illustration). 2. Workpiece lying flat for compound cut (see chart and illustration). (Model 113.235221 Only) Miter and Bevel Settings for Standard Lying Flat on Miter Saw Table.

I while ANGER: Never put lubricants on the blade WARNING: To avoid injury from unexpected starting or electrical shock, unplug the power cord before working on the saw. WARNING: insulated. For your To avoid NOTE: To reinstall the same brushes, first make sure the brushes go back in the way they came out. This will avoid a break in period that reduces performance and increases wear. Lower Blade Guard Do not use the saw without the lower guard. The lower blade guard is attached to the saw for protection, Should the lower guard become damaged, do not use the saw until damaged guard has been replaced. Develop a regular check to make sure the lower guard is working properly. Clean the lower guard of any dust or build up with a damp cloth, safety, this saw is double electrical shock, fire or CAUTION: Do not use solvents on the guard. They could make the plastic "cloudy" and brittle.. injury, use only parts identical to those identified in the parts list reassemble exactly as original assembly to avoid electrical hazards. WARNING: When cleaning lower guard unplug the saw from the outlet to avoid unexpected start-up. Replacing Carbon Brushes Saw Dust The carbon brushes furnished will last approximately 50 hours of running time or 10,000 on/off cycles. Replace both carbon brushes when either has less than 1/4" length of carbon remaining. To inspect or replace first unplug the saw. Then remove the motor cap on the end of the motor by removing 2 screws. Remove the lead wires from the tabs on the brushes, then pull out the brushes. To reassemble reverse the procedure. Tighten the screws snugly but do not overtighten. Periodically, sawdust will accumulate under the work table and base. This could cause difficulty in the movement of the work table when setting up a miter cut. Frequently blow out or vacuum up the sawdust. WARNING: If blowing sawdust, wear proper eye protection to keep debris from blowing into eyes. Lubrication All the motor bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions, therefore, no further lubrication is required. (See below.) LINK PIVOT ROLLER LOWER GUARD SPACER Infrequent Lubrication as Required: 1. Lubrication of arm pivot for free movement. \ a. Apply oil between washer and contact face of Table/Pivot casting. b. Apply oil to pivot shaft next to inside surface of ears on arm casting.
