PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and
normally do not require readjustment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
The saw arm should rise completely to the up position
by itself.
If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play
in the pivot joints, have saw repaired by at your nearest
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
BEVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
Your compound miter saw should bevel easily by loos-
ening the bevel lock knob and tilting the saw arm to the
left.
If movement is tight or if there is play in the pivot, have
saw repaired by at your nearest AUTHORIZED SERVICE
CENTER.
WARNING:
Before starting any cutting operation, clamp or bolt
your miter saw to a workbench. Never operate your
miter saw on the floor or in a crouched position.
Failure to heed this warning can result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, keep your hands
outside the no hands zone; at least 3 in. from blade.
Never perform any cutting operation freehand (with-
out holding workpiece against the fence). The blade
could grab the workpiece if it slips or twists.
WARNING:
Do not start your compound miter saw without
checking for interference between the blade and
the miter fence. Damage could result to the blade
if it strikes the miter fence during operation of the
saw.
