BEVEL LOCK KNOB

miter saw at desired bevel angles. Positive stop

See pages 20 and 21.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
An electric brake has been provided to quickly stop
blade rotation after the switch is released.
FENCE
The fence on your compound miter saw has been
provided to hold your workpiece securely against
when making all cuts.
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.
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 11.
Your compound miter saw should be permanently
mounted to a firm supporting surface such as work-
bench. Four 3/8 in. (10 mm) bolt holes have been
provided in the saw base for this purpose. Each of the
four mounting holes should be bolted securely using
3/8 in. (10 mm) machine bolts, lock washers, and hex
nuts (not included). Bolts should be of sufficient length
to accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex
nuts, and the thickness of the workbench. Tighten all
four bolts securely.
The hole pattern for an 18-5/8 in. x 24 in. (457.2 mm x
609.6 mm) workbench is shown in Figure 11. Care-
fully check the workbench after mounting to make
sure that no movement can occur during use. If any
tipping, sliding, or walking is noted, secure the work-
bench to the floor before operating.
WARNING:
Always make sure your compound miter saw is
securely mounted to a workbench or an approved
workstand. Failure to do so could result in an
accident resulting in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
The operation of any saw can result in foreign objects
being thrown into your eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Before starting power tool
operation, always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields and a full face shield when
needed. We recommend wide vision safety mask for
use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with
side shields.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to modify this tool or create
accessories not recommended for use with this tool.
Any such alteration or modification is misuse and
could result in a hazardous condition leading to
possible serious personal injury.
TRIGGER LOCK
See Figure 10.
To prevent unauthorized use of your compound miter
saw, we suggest that you remove battery pack and
lock the switch in the off position. To lock the switch,
install a padlock through the hole in the switch trigger.
A lock with a shackle up to 13/64 in. (5.2 mm) diam-
eter may be used. When the lock is installed and
locked, the switch is inoperable. Store the padlock key
in another location.
