OPERATION
Make sure the Power Cord of the Miter Saw is unplugged from its electri-
cal outlet. Then, if necessary, make adjustments to the workpiece Holder (149),
Bafe Plate (151), cutting depth, and miter angle and/or bevel angle.
Raise the Motor Housing (26) to its full “UP” position.
Check to make sure the Safety Button (16) and the Switch Lever (25) are operat-
ing properly.
Place the workpiece on the Turn Base (125) and against the Guide Fence (105).
Use the Clamp Assembly (95 to 102) to hold the workpiece in place.
Plug the Power Cord into the nearest 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet.
Depress the Safety Button (16) with your thumb, and squeeze the Switch Lever
(25) on the Handle Cover (40). Then, release the Safety Button.
When the Saw Blade (51) is turning at full speed, slowly bring down the Motor
Housing (26) to complete the cut. NOTE: Feed the Saw Blade into the work-
piece gradually. Do not force the machine to remove material faster than it was
designed to cut.
When cutting a large workpiece, make sure its entire length is properly support-
ed. If necessary, use a roller stand (not included) with a larger workpiece.
Never attempt to remove material stuck in the moving parts of the Miter Saw
while it is plugged in and running.
Turn off the Miter Saw if the workpiece is to be backed out of an uncompleted
cut.
When the cut is complete, release the Switch Lever (25). This allows the Safety
Button (16) to return to the “OFF” position.
Wait until the Saw Blade (51) comes to a complete stop. Then, raise the Motor
Housing (26) to its full “UP” position.
Loosen the Clamp Assembly (95 to 102), and remove the workpiece and scrap
material.
Unplug the Power Cord from its electrical outlet.
