PLAN YOUR WORK
o Use the right tool. Do not force a 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 masonry,
masonry products, ferrous metals
(steel, iron, and iron-based metals.)
Use this miter saw to cut only
wood, wood-like products, or non-
ferrous metals. Other material may
shatter, bind the blade, or create
other dangers. Remove all nails that
may be in the workpiece to prevent
sparking that could cause a fire.
Remove dust bag when cutting non-
ferrous metals.
S FOR SAFETY
Any power tool can throw
foreign objects into the eyes.
This can result in permanent
eye damage. Everyday eyeglasses
have only impact resistant lenses and
are not safety glasses. Glasses or
goggles not in compliance with ANSI
Z87.1 could seriously injure you when
they break.
o Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties or jewelry (rings, watches).
They can get caught and draw you
into moving parts.
o Wear non-slip footwear.
o Tie back long hair.
o Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
o Noise levels vary widely. To avoid
possible hearing damage, wear ear
plugs when using any miter saw.
o For dusty operations, wear a dust
mask along with safety goggles.
INSPECT YOUR WORKPIECE
Make sure there are no nails or foreign
objects in the part of the workpiece
being cut.
Plan your work to avoid small pieces
that may bind, or that are too small to
clamp and get a solid grasp on. Plan
the way you will grasp the workpiece
from start to finish. Avoid awkward
operations and hand positions.
27
![](asset-1c.png)
A sudden slip could cause your fingers
or hand to move into the blade.
DO NOT OVER-REACH
Keep good footing and balance. Keep
your face and body to one side, out of
the line of a possible kickback. NEVER
stand in the line of the blade.
Never cut freehand:
o Brace your workpiece firmly against
the fence and table stop so it will not
rock or twist during the cut.
o Make sure there is no debris
between the workpiece and the table
or fence.
o Make sure there are no gaps
between the workpiece, fence and
table that will let the workpiece shift
after it is cut.
o Keep the cut off piece free to move
sideways after it is cut off. Otherwise,
it could get wedged against the
blade and thrown violently.
• Only the workpiece should be on the
saws table.
o Secure work. Use clamps or a vise
to help hold the work when it is
practical.
USE EXTRA CAUTION WITH LARGE
OR ODD SHAPED WORKPIECES.
o Use extra supports (tables,
sawhorses, blocks, etc.) for
workpieces large enough to tip.
o Never use another person as a
substitute for a table extension, or as
an 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.
o Do not use this saw to cut small
pieces. If the workpiece being cut
would cause your hand or fingers
to be within 6-3/4 inches of the saw
blade the workpiece is too small.
Keep hands and fingers out of the
"no hands zone" area marked on the
saws table.
o When cutting odd shaped
workpieces, plan your work so it
will not bind in the blade and cause
possible injury. Molding, for example,
must lie flat or be held by a fixture or
jig that will not let it move when cut.
o Properly support round material such
as dowel rods, or tubing, which have
a tendency to roll when cut, causing
the blade to "bite".
l_, WARNING i
To avoid injury, follow all applicable
safety instructions, when cutting
non-ferrous metals:
o Use only saw blades specifically
recommended for non-ferrous metal
cutting.
o Do not cut metal workpieces
that must be hand held. Clamp
workpieces securely.
o Cut non-ferrous metals only if you
are under the supervision of an
experienced person and the dust
bag has been removed from the
saw.
WHEN SAW IS RUNNING
I,_ WARNING]
Do not allow familiarity from
frequent use of your miter saw
to result in acareless mistake. A
careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury.
Before cutting, if the saw makes an
unfamiliar noise or vibrates, stop
immediately. Turn the saw OFF.
Unplug the saw. Do not restart until
finding and correcting the problem.
![](asset-1d.png)
BODYAND HAND POSITION (FIG. T)
[_ WARNING]

pushed forward when sawing.
o Let the blade reach full speed
before cutting. This will help
reduce the risk of a thrown
workpiece.

ToSlideCutWide Boards (Fig. Z)
1. Unlock the carriage lock handle
(1) and allow the cutting head
assembly to move freely.
2. Set both the desired bevel angle
and/or the miter angle and lock into
position.
3. Use a hold down clamp to secure
the workpiece.
4. Grasp and pull forward the switch
handle (2) until the center of the
saw blade is over the front of the
workpiece (3).
5. Engage the trigger to turn the saw
on.
6. When the saw reaches full speed,
push the switch handle down,
slowly, cutting through the leading
edge of the workpiece.
7. Slowly move the switch handle
toward the fence, completing the
cut.
8. Release the trigger and allow
the blade to stop spinning before
allowing the cutting head to raise.

CUTTING BOWED MATERIAL (FIG.
AA)
i_ WARNING 1
To avoid injury from materials being
thrown, always unplug the saw
to avoid accidental starting and
remove small pieces of material
from the table cavity.
The table insert may be removed for
this purpose, but always reattach table
insert prior to performing a cutting
operation.
A bowed workpiece must be positioned
against the fence and secured with
a clamping device as shown before
cutting. Do not position workpiece
incorrectly or try to cut the workpiece
without the support of the fence. This
will cause the blade to bind and could
result in personal injury.

WORKPIECE SUPPORT (FIG. CO)
Long pieces need extra support. The
support should be placed under the
workpiece. Keep your hand holding the
workpiece positioned 6-3/4 inches or
more away from the blade. The support
must let the workpiece lay flat on the
work table during the cutting operation.
NOTE: When mounted on a flat
surface, the saw table is 3-1/4 inches
high.
Fig. CO
3-1/4 in.
AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE (FIG. DD)
When making multiple or repetitive cuts
that result in cut-off pieces of one inch
or less, it is possible for the saw blade
to catch the cut-off piece and throw it
out of the saw or into the blade guard
and housing, possibly causing damage
or injury. To minimize this an auxiliary
wood fence can be mounted to your
saw. Holes are provided in the saw
fence to attach an auxiliary wood fence
(this provides additional depth of cut).
This fence should be constructed of
straight auxiliary wood approximately
3/4 in. thick by 1-1/2 in. high by 16 in.
long. Attach the wood fence securely
and make a full depth cut to make
a blade slot. Check for interference
between the wood fence and the lower
blade guard. Adjust if necessary.

CUTTINGBASEMOLDING(FIG. EE)
Base moldings and many other
moldings can be cut on a compound
miter saw. The setup of the saw
depends on molding characteristics
and application, as shown. Perform
practice cuts on scrap material to
achieve best results:
1. Always make sure moldings rest
firmly against fence and table. Use
hold-down, crown molding vise
or C-clamps, whenever possible,
and place tape on the area being
clamped to avoid marks.
2. Reduce splintering by taping the cut
area prior to making the cut. Mark
the cut line directly on the tape.
3. Splintering typically happens due to
an incorrect blade application and
thinness of the material.

NOTE: Always 3erform a dry run cut
so you can determine if the operation
being attempted is possible before
power is applied to the saw.
CUTTING CROWN MOLDING (FIG.
FF, GG)
[,d_ WARNING]
Your compound miter saw is suited
for the difficult task of cutting crown
molding. To fit properly, crown molding
must be compound-mitered with
extreme accuracy. The two surfaces
on a piece of crown molding that fit
angles that, when added to_
equal exactly 90 °.
Most crown molding has a top rear
angle (the section that fits flat against
the ceiling) of 52°and a bottom rear
angle (the section that fits flat against
the wall) of 38° .
In order to accurately cut crown
molding for a 90° inside or outside
corner, lay the molding with its broad
back surface flat on the saw table.
When setting the bevel and miter
angles for compound miters, remember
that the settings are interdependent;
changing one changes the other, as
well.

MAINTENANCE
I_ DANGER i
To avoid injury, never put lubricants
on the blade while it is spinning.
[,A WARNING]
o To avoid fire or toxic reaction,
never use gasoline, naphtha
acetone, lacquer thinner or
similar highly volatile solvents to
clean the miter saw.
oTo avoid injury from unexpected
starting or electrical shock,
unplug the power cord before
working on the saw.
o For your safety, this saw is
double=insulated. To avoid
electrical shock, fire or injury,
use only parts identical to
those identified in the parts
list. Reassemble exactly as
the original assembly to avoid
electrical shock.
REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES
(FIG. HH)
Replace both carbon brushes when
either has less than 1/4 in. length of
carbon remaining, or if the spring or
wire is damaged or burned. To inspect
or replace brushes, first unplug the
saw. Then remove the black plastic
cap (1) on the side of the motor (2).
Remove the cap cautiously, because
it is springloaded. Then pull out the
brush and replace. Replace for the
other side. To reassemble reverse the
procedure. The ears on the metal end
of the assembly go in the same hole
the carbon part fits into. Tighten the
cap snugly, but do not overtighten.
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 motor
performance and increases wear.
Fig. HH

LOWER BLADE GUARD
Do not use the saw without the lower
blade guard. The lower blade guard is
attached to the saw for your protection.
Should the lower guard become
damaged, do not use the saw until the
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
buildup with a damp cloth.
l,_ WARNING i
o When cleaning the lower guard,
unplug the saw from the power
source receptacle to avoid
unexpected startup.
o Do not use solvents on the
guard. They could make the
plastic "cloudy" and brittle.

SAWDUST
Periodically, sawdust will accumulate
under the work table and base. This
could cause difficulty in the movement
of the worktable when setting up
a miter cut. Frequently blow out or
vacuum up the sawdust.
i,A WARNING 1
Wear proper eye protection to keep
debris from entering eyes when
removing sawdust from unit.
LUBRICATION (FIG. II, JJ)
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.
Lubricate the Following as necessary:
Chop pivot: Apply light machine oil to
points indicated in illustration.

Central pivot of plastic guard: Use
light household oil (sewing machine
oil ) on metal-to-metal or metal-to-
plastic guard contact areas as required
for smooth, quiet operation. Avoid
excessive oil, to which sawdust will
cling.
Link: (actuates lower guard movement)
If down chop motion is hard to start, oil
link at two screws (1).
