FEATURES
BEVEL LOCK KNOB
The bevel lock knob securely locks your compound miter
saw at desired bevel angles.
CROWN MOLDING STOP
The crown molding stop makes positioning crown molding
vertically against the fence easier.
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.
POSITIVE STOPS ON MITER TABLE
Positive stops have been provided at 0°, 15°, 22-1/2°, 30°, and
45°. The 22-1/2° and 45° positive stops have been provided
on both the left and right side of the miter table.
ROTATING “D” HANDLE
The rotating “D” handle can be adjusted to provide differ-
ent saw handle positions. Turn the handle adjusting knob
clockwise to loosen the rotating handle before twisting the
rotating handle to a desired position. Lock the rotating handle
into different positions by turning the handle adjusting knob
counterclockwise.
SELF-RETRACTING LOWER BLADE GUARD
The lower blade guard is made of shock-resistant, see-
through plastic that provides protection from each side of
the blade. It retracts over the upper blade guard as the saw
is lowered into the workpiece.
SLIDING MITER FENCE
The miter fence on the compound miter saw has been
provided to hold your workpiece securely against when
making all cuts. The left side is larger providing additional
support. It has a sliding feature for clearance of the saw arm
when making bevel or compound cuts.
Loosen the fence screw before attempting to slide the miter
fence. Once the desired position of the miter fence is deter-
mined, tighten the fence screw to secure the sliding fence.
