STARTING AND STOPPING MITER SAW
To start the miter saw, depress the switch trigger (A) Fig. 10. To stop the miter saw, release the switch trigger.
This saw is equipped with an automatic electric blade brake. As soon as the switch trigger (A) Fig. 10 is released, the
electric brake activates and stops the blade in seconds.
A turning saw blade can be dangerous. After completing the cut, release the switch trigger (A) Fig.
10 to activate the blade brake. Keep the cuttinghead down until the blade has come to a complete
stop.
The torque developed during braking may loosen the arbor screw. Check the arbor screw periodically and
tighten if necessary.
