TRIGGER LOCK

To prevent unauthorized use of your compound miter saw,
we suggest that you disconnect it from the power supply and
lock the switch in the off position. To lock the switch, install
a padlock (not included) through the hole in the switch
trigger. A lock with a long shackle up to 9/32 in. (7 mm)
diameter may be used. When the lock is installed and
locked, the switch is inoperable. Store the padlock key in
another location.
