General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instruc-

tions, illustrations and specifications pro-

vided with this power tool. Failure to follow all

instructions listed below may result in electric

shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future

reference

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your

mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery operated

(cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you

to lose control.

2. Electrical Safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter

plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk

of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of

a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electric shock.

f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)

protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of

electric shock.

3. Personal Safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under

the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the off position before connecting to power

source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the

switch or energising power tools that have the switch

on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result

in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these

are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of

tools allow you to become complacent and ignore

tool safety principles. A careless action can cause

severe injury within a fraction of a second.

ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

4. Power Tool Use And Care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was

designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/

or remove the battery pack, if detachable from

the power tool before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions to operate the

power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands

of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check

for misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition that

may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,

have the power tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.

in accordance with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions and the work to

be performed. Use of the power tool for operations

different from those intended could result in a

hazardous situation.

h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean

and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and

grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and

control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool

is maintained.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITRE SAWS

♦ Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like

products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-

off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as

bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving

parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from

abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf

insert and other plastic parts.

♦ Use clamps to support the workpiece

wheneverpossible. If supporting the workpiece

by hand, you must always keep your hand at least

100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do not

use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to be

securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is

placed too close to the saw blade,there is an increased

risk of injury from blade contact.

♦ The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or

held against both the fence and the table. Do not

feed the workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand”

in any way. Unrestrained or moving workpieces could

be thrown at high speeds,causing injury.

♦ Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not

pull the saw through the workpiece. To make a

cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over the

workpiece without cutting, start the motor, press

the saw head down and push the saw through

the workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to

cause the saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece

and violently throw the blade assembly towards the

operator.

♦ Never cross your hand over the intended line of

cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.

Supporting the workpiece “cross handed” i.e. holding

the workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your

left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.

♦ Do not reach behind the fence with either hand

closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw

blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other

reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity

of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be

obvious and you may be seriously injured.

♦ Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the

workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the

outside bowed face toward the fence. Always

make certain that there is no gap between the

workpiece, fence and table along the line of the

cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and

may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while

cutting. There should be no nails or foreign objects in

the workpiece.

♦ Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all

tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the workpiece.

Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects

that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with

high speed.

♦ Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple

workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced

and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.

♦ Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on

a level, firm work surface before use.A level and

firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw

becoming unstable.

♦ Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel

or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable

fence is set correctly to support the workpiece

and will not interfere with the blade or the

guarding system. Without turning the tool “ON” and

with no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade

through a complete simulated cut to assure there will

be no interference or danger of cutting the fence.

♦ Provide adequate support such as table

extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that

is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces

longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip if not

securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece

tips, it can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the

15

ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

spinning blade.

♦ Do not use another person as a substitute for a

table extension or as additional support. Unstable

support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind

or the workpiece to shift during the cutting operation

pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.

♦ Thecut-offpiecemustnotbejammedorpressed

byanymeansagainstthe spinning saw blade. If

confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could

get wedged against the blade and thrown violentiy.

♦ Always use aclamp or a fixture designed to

properly support round material such as rods or

tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut,

causing the blade to “bite” and pull the work with your

hand into the blade.

♦ Let the blade reach full speed before contacting

the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the

workpiece being thrown.

♦ If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn

the mitre saw off.Wait for all moving parts to stop

and disconnect the plug from the power source

and/ or remove the battery pack. Then work to

free the jammed material. Continued sawing with

a jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or

damage to the mitre saw.

♦ After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold

the saw head down and wait for the blade to stop

before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with

your hand near the coasting blade is dangerous.

♦ Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete

cut or when releasing the switch before the saw

head is completely in the down position. The

braking action of the saw may cause the saw head to

be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR MITRE

SAWS

♦ The machine is provided with a special configured

power supply cord which can only be replaced by the

manufacturer or its authorised service agent.

♦ Do not use the saw to cut other materials than those

recommended by the manufacturer.

♦ Cutting plastics, sap coated wood, and other materials

may cause melted material to accumulate on the blade

tips and the body of the saw blade, increasing the risk

of blade overheating and binding while cutting.

♦ Do not operate the machine without guards in posi-

tion, or if guards do not function or are not maintained

properly.

♦ Ensure that the arm is securely fixed when performing

bevel cuts.

♦ Keep the floor area around the machine level,

well-maintained and free of loose materials, e.g., chips

and cut-offs.

♦ Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the

maximum speed mark on the saw blade.

♦ Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles are

tight before starting any operation.

♦ Never place either hand in the blade area when the

saw is connected to the electrical power source.

♦ Never attempt to stop a machine in motion rapidly by

jamming a tool or other means against the blade; seri-

ous accidents can occur.

♦ Before using any accessory consult the instruction

manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause

damage.

♦ Use a holder or wear gloves when handling a saw

blade.

♦ Ensure that the saw blade is mounted correctly before

use.

♦ Make sure that the blade rotates in the correct

direction.

♦ Take care when slotting.

♦ Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than

recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the

technical data. Use only the blades specified in this

manual, complying with EN 847-1.

♦ Consider applying specially designed noise-reduction

blades.

♦ Do not use HSS blades.

♦ Do not use cracked or damaged saw blades.

♦ Do not use any abrasive or diamond discs.

♦ Never use your saw without the kerf plate.

♦ Raise the blade from the kerf in the workpiece prior to

releasing the switch.

♦ Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the

motor shaft.

♦ The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise

when the arm is brought down; it will lower over the

blade when head lock up release lever (cc) is pushed.

♦ Never raise the blade guard manually unless the saw

is switched off. The guard can be raised by hand when

installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of

the saw.

♦ Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean

and free of chips.

♦ Replace the kerf plate when worn. Refer to service

parts list included.

♦ Disconnect the machine from the mains before

carrying out any maintenance work or when changing

the blade.

♦ Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work

when the machine is still running and the head is not

in the rest position.

♦ When possible, always mount the machine to a bench.

♦ The front section of the guard is louvered for visibility

while cutting. Although the louvers dramatically

reduce flying debris, they are openings in the guard

and safety glasses should be worn at all times when

viewing through the louvers.

♦ Connect the saw to a dust collection device when

sawing wood. Always consider factors which influence

exposure of dust such as:

– type of material to be machined (chip board

produces more dust than wood);

– sharpness of the saw blade;

ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

16

– correct adjustment of the saw blade,

– dust extractor with air velocity not less than 20 m/s.

Ensure that the local extraction as well as hoods, baffles

and chutes are properly adjusted.

♦ Please be aware of the following factors influencing

exposure to noise:

– use saw blades designed to reduce the emitted

noise;

– use only well sharpened saw blades;

♦ Machine maintenance shall be conducted periodically;

♦ Machine faults, including guards or saw blade, shall be

reported as soon as they are discovered;

♦ Provide adequate general or localized lighting;

♦ Ensure the operator is adequately trained in the use,

adjustment and operation of the machine;

♦ Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings are suitable

for the purpose as stated in this manual.

♦ Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of

the workpiece from the cutting area while the machine

is running and the saw head is not in the rest position

♦ Never cut workpieces shorter than 30 mm(Figure 34).

♦ Without additional support the machine is designed to

accept the maximum workpiece size of:

– Height 75 mm by width 140 mm by length 460 mm

– Longer workpieces need to be supported by suit-

able additional table(work support). Always clamp

the workpiece safely.

♦ In case of an accident or machine failure, immediately

turn the machine off and disconnect machine from the

power source.

♦ Report the failure and mark the machine in suitable

form to prevent other people from using the defective

machine.

♦ When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal feed

force during cutting, turn the machine off and discon-

nect it from power supply. Remove the workpiece and

ensure that the saw blade runs free. Turn the machine

on and start new cutting operation with reduced feed

force.

♦ Never cut light alloy, especially magnesium.

♦ Whenever the situation allows, mount the machine to

a bench using bolts.

RESIDUAL RISKS

The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:

– injuries caused by touching the rotating parts

In spite of the application of the relevant safety reg-

ulations and the implementation of safety devices,

certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:

– Impairment of hearing.

– Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the

rotating saw blade.

– Risk of injury when changing the blade.

– Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.

– Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed

when sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.

The following factors increase the risk of breathing

problems:

– No dust extractor connected when sawing wood.

– Insufficient dust extraction caused by uncleaned exhaust

filters.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Only one voltage is applicable to this tool. Be sure to check

that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the

rating plate.

movement. To enhance the portability, the tool can be

mounted to a piece of 15 mm or thinner plywood which

can then be clamped to your work support or moved to

other job sites and reclamped.

♦ When mounting your saw to a piece of ply-

wood, make sure that the mounting screws

do not protrude from the bottom of the wood.

The plywood must sit flush on the work support. When

clamping the saw to any work surface, clamp only on

the clamping bosses where the mounting screw holes

are located. Clamping at any other point will interfere

with the proper operation of the saw.

♦ To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the moun-

ting surface is not warped or otherwise uneven. If the

saw rocks on the surface, place a thin piece of material

under one saw foot until the saw is firm on the moun-

ting surface.

ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

Adjusting the Depth Stop (Sawing Grooves) (Fig.

33)

The adjusting screw(ss) of the depth stop has to be turned

clockwise if you want to saw a groove.

– Tilt the tool head by the handle to the position at which the

requested groove depth is reached.

– Turn the adjusting screw(ss) clockwise until the end of the

screw touches the housing stop.

– Guide the tool arm slowly upward.

Return the depth stop to its original position once sawing

grooves done.

Ensure that saw blades do not touch any part of the base

or kerf plate.

Guard Actuation and Visibility

The blade guard on your saw has been designed to automat-

ically raise when the arm is brought down and to lower over

the blade when the arm is raised.

The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing

saw blades or for inspection of the saw. NEVER RAISE

THE BLADE GUARD MANUALLY UNLESS THE SAW IS

TURNED OFF.

NOTE: Certain special cuts will require that you manually

raise the guard. The front section of the guard is louvered

for visibility while cutting. Although the louvers dramatically

reduce flying debris, they are openings in the guard and

safety glasses should be worn at all times when viewing

through the louvers.

Automatic Electric Brake

Your saw is equipped with an automatic electric blade brake

which stops the saw blade within 10 seconds of trigger

release. This is not adjustable.

On occasion, there may be a delay after trigger release to

brake engagement. On rare occasions, the brake may not

engage at all and the blade will coast to a stop.

If a delay or “skipping” occurs, turn the saw on and off 4 or 5

times. If the condition persists, have the tool serviced by an

authorized STANLEY service center.

Always be sure the blade has stopped before removing it from

the kerf. The brake is not a substitute for guards or for ensur-

ing your own safety by giving the saw your complete attention.

Brushes (Fig. 1)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious person-

al injury, turn off the tool and disconnect it from

the power source before attempting to move it,

change accessories or make any adjustments.

Inspect carbon brushes regularly by unplugging the

tool, removing the Brush holder cap (W) that holds the

spring-loaded brush assembly. Keep brushes clean and

sliding freely in their guides. Always replace a used brush

in the same orientation in the holder as it was prior to its

removal.

Use only identical STANLEY brushes. Use of the correct

grade of brush is essential for proper operation of electric

brake. New brush essential for proper operation of electric

1. Loosen the bevel clamp knob (p).

2. Press the mitre arm to the right to ensure it is fully

vertical with the angle position stop located against the

vertical position adjustment stop (cc) and tighten the

bevel clamp knob.

3. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw

kerf (s).

4. Place a set square (tt) on the table and up against

the blade (oo) (Fig. 18).

WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade

teeth with the square.

If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:

5. Turn the vertical position adjustment stop screw (bb) in

or out until the blade is at 90º to the table as measured

with the square.

6. If the bevel pointer (xx) does not indicate zero on the

bevel scale (q), loosen the screw (yy) that secures the

pointer and move the pointer as necessary.

Adjusting the Fence (Fig. 22)

The upper part of the fence can be adjusted to provide

clearance, allowing the saw to bevel to 45° left and 0° right.

To adjust the left fence (v):

1. Loosen the plastic knob (k) and slide the fence to the left.

2. Make a dry run with the saw switched off and check for

clearance. Adjust the fence to be as close to the blade

as practical to provide maximum workpiece support,

without interfering with the up and down movement of

the arm.

3. Tighten the knob securely.

WARNING: The guide grooves (zz) can become

clogged with sawdust. Use a stick or some low

pressure air to clear the guide grooves.

Checking and Adjusting the Bevel Angle (Fig. 21,

22, 23)

1. Loosen the left side fence clamping knob (k) and slide

the upper part of the left side fence to the left as far as it

will go.

2. Loosen the bevel clamp knob (p) and move the saw

arm to the left until the angle position stop (z) rests on

the bevel position adjustment stop (aa). This is the 45°

bevel position.

If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:

3. Loosen the locknut (ww) a few turns and turn the bevel

position adjustment stop screw (aa) in or out until the

pointer (xx) indicates 45° with the angle position stop (z)

resting on the bevel position adjustment stop.

4. Firmly tighten the lock nut (ww) while holding the stop

screw (aa) stationary.

5. To achieve a 0° right bevel or a 45° left bevel, the two

adjustment stop screws must be adjusted to allow the

saw arm to move as necessary.

brake. New brush assemblies are available at STANLEY

service centers. The tool should be allowed to “run in” (run

at no load) for 10 minutes before use to seat new brushes.

The electric brake may be erratic in operation until the

brushes are properly seated (worn in). Always replace

the brush inspection cap after inspection or servicing the

brushes.

While “running in” do not tie, tape, or otherwise lock the

trigger switch on. Hold by hand only.

USE

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions

and applicable regulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal

injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power

source before making any adjustments or removing/

installing attachments or accessories.

Ensure the machine is placed to satisfy your ergonomic

conditions in terms of table height and stability. The

machine site shall be chosen so that the operator has a

good overview and enough free surrounding space around

the machine that allows handling of the workpiece without

any restrictions.

To reduce effects of vibration make sure the environment

temperature is not too cold, machine and accessory is

well maintained and the workpiece size is suitable for this

machine.

Prior to Operation

♦ Install the appropriate saw blade. Do not use

excessively worn blades. The maximum rotation speed

of the tool must not exceed that of the saw blade.

♦ Do not attempt to cut excessively small pieces.

♦ Allow the blade to cut freely. Do not force.

♦ Allow the motor to reach full speed before cutting.

♦ Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles are

tight.

♦ Secure the workpiece.

♦ Although this saw will cut wood and many nonferrous

materials, these operating instructions refer to the

cutting of wood only. The same guidelines apply to

the other materials. Do not cut ferrous (iron and steel)

materials or masonry with this saw! Do not use any

abrasive discs!

♦ Make sure to use the kerf plate. Do not operate the

machine if the kerf slot is wider than 12 mm.

Switching On and Off (Fig.24)

To turn the saw on, push the lock-off lever (dd) to the left,

then depress the trigger switch (l) . The saw will run while

the switch is depressed. Allow the blade to spin up to full

operating speed before making the cut. To turn the saw off,

release the switch. Allow the blade to stop before raising

the saw head. There is no provision for locking the switch

on. A hole (y) is provided in the trigger for insertion of a

padlock to lock the switch off.

Use of LED Worklight System (Fig. 1, 2)

NOTE: The mitre saw must be connected to a power

source.

The LED Worklight System is equipped with an on/off

switch (bb). The LED Worklight System is independent of

the mitre saw’s trigger switch. The light does not need to

be on in order to operate the saw.

To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood:

1. Turn on the system, then pull down on the operating

handle (a) to bring the saw blade close to the wood.

The shadow of the blade will appear on the wood.

2. Align the pencil line with the edge of the blade’s

shadow.You may have to adjust the mitre or bevel

angles in order to match the pencil line exactly.

Body and Hand Position

Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating

the mitre saw will make cutting easier, more accurate and

safer.

♦ Never place your hands near the cutting area.

♦ Place your hands no closer than 150 mm from the

blade.

♦ Hold the workpiece tightly to the table and the fence

when cutting. Keep your hands in position until

the switch has been released and the blade has

completely stopped.

♦ Always make dry runs (without power) before finish

cuts so that you can check the path of the blade.

♦ Do not cross your hands.

♦ Keep both feet firmly on the floor and maintain proper

balance.

♦ As you move the saw arm left and right, follow it and

stand slightly to the side of the saw blade.

♦ View through the guard louvres when following a

pencil line.

Basic Saw Cuts

Vertical Straight Cross Cut (Fig. 1, 2, 25)

NOTE: Always use 254 mm saw blades with 30mm arbor

holes to obtain the desired cutting capacities.

1. Loosen the mitre lock knob (e) and depress the mitre

detent (t) to release the mitre arm.

2. Engage the mitre latch at the 0° position and tighten the

mitre lock knob (e).

3. Place the wood to be cut against the fence (c, v).

4. Take hold of the operating handle (a) and push the

lock-off lever (dd) to the left..

5. Press the trigger switch (l) to start the motor.

6. Depress the head to allow the blade to cut through the

timber and enter the plastic kerf plate (s).

7. After completing the cut, release the switch and wait for

the saw blade to come to a complete standstill before

returning the head to its upper rest position.
