The safe use of this product requires an understanding of
the information on the tool and in this operator’s manual as
well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before
use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.
10 in. BLADE
A 10 in. blade is included with the compound miter saw. It will
cut materials up to 3-1/2 in. thick or 12 in. wide, depending
upon the angle at which the cut is being made.
15 AMP MOTOR
The saw has a powerful 15 amp motor with sufficient power
to handle tough cutting jobs. It is made with all ball bearings,
and has externally accessible brushes for ease of servicing.
BEVEL LOCK KNOB
The bevel lock knob securely locks your compound miter
saw at desired bevel angles. A positive stop adjustment
screw has been provided on each side of the saw arm.
These adjustment screws are for making fine adjustments
at 0° and 45°.
CARRYING HANDLE
See Figure 2.
For convenience when carrying or transporting the miter
saw from one place to another, a carrying handle has been
provided on top of the saw arm. To transport, turn off and
unplug the saw, then lower the saw arm and lock it in the
down position by depressing the lock pin towards the saw
housing.
NOTE: DO NOT perform any cutting operation with the saw
in the locked position.
DETENT OVERRIDE
See Figure 3.
The detent override allows the miter table to move freely
to any desired angle. With the miter lock handle loosened
and the detent release lever squeezed (1), pull the detent
override up (2) and release the detent release lever (3) to
bypass the positive stops on the miter scale. To release
the detent override and allow the miter table to engage the
positive stops, squeeze and release the detent release lever.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
An electric brake has been provided to quickly stop blade
rotation after the switch is released.
LASER GUIDE
For more accurate cuts, a laser guide is included with the
miter saw. When used properly, the laser guide makes
accurate, precision cutting simple and easy.
