The miter lock handle securely locks the saw at desired
miter angles. Tighten the handle to lock the saw in place. To
release the saw, loosen the handle and squeeze the detent
release lever.
MITER SCALE
The miter scale has index points provided at 0°, 15°, 22.5°,
30, 31.6°, and 45°.
POSITIVE STOPS ON MITER TABLE
Positive stops have been provided at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°,
and 45° on both the left and right side of the miter table.
NOTE: To bypass the positive stops, squeeze the detent
release lever and lift the detent override. To release the
override, squeeze the detent release lever.
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.
SLIDE BARS
When unlocked, the saw arm will glide forward and backward
the length of the slide bars for cutting various workpiece
widths.
SLIDE LOCK KNOB
The slide lock knob locks and unlocks the sliding feature
of this tool.
SLIDING MITER FENCE
The sliding miter fence on your compound miter saw has
been provided to help secure the workpiece when making
cuts; the portion of the miter fence located farthest from the
blade is larger to provide additional vertical support.
The sliding feature makes it easy to remove or adjust the
position of the fence and allows 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 determined, tighten the
fence screw to secure the sliding fence.
