Assembly

Disconnect plug from power source
before performing any assembly,

adjustment or repair to avoid possible injury.

1. The miter saw is equipped with a lock pin used to

lock the miter saw in the lower position. To release,
push the handle down slightly and pull the lock pin
to its full out position and rotate 90°.

NOTE:If the lock pin is stuck and will not pull out
when the handle is pushed down slightly, you may
have to adjust the depth stop bolt (see Depth
Adjustment, page 16) slightly so the handle can be
pushed down and the lock pin can be pulled out.

2. Rotate the lower guard by hand. Loosen front

cover screw to a point that cover plate can be lift-
ed (Figure 1).

3. Rotate the cover plate counterclockwise so the

blade bolt is exposed (Figure 1).

4. Press and hold the arbor lock (See figure on page

9). Use the multi purpose tool to remove the blade
bolt by turning wrench clockwise. NOTE: The
blade bolt has left hand threading.
