GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING:

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and

specifications provided 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.

WORK AREA SAFETY

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

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.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

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.

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.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

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.

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.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the

risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

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.

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,

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

used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal

injuries.

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.

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.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. This enables better control of the power tool

in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

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.

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.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

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.

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.

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

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

MITER SAW SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Miter 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 whenever

possible. 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 miter saw is mounted or placed on a

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

work surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becoming

unstable.

safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool

accidentally.

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.

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.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to

bind and are easier to control.

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.

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.

SERVICE

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.

4 − English

MITER SAW SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or

miter 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

miter 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 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.

The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by

any means against the spinning saw blade. If confined,

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

against the blade and thrown violently.

Always use a clamp 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 miter 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

miter 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 to be suddenly pulled downward, causing

a risk of injury.

 Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and

use to instruct other users. If you loan someone this tool,

loan them these instructions also.

 Use the proper extension cord. Make sure your exten-

sion cord is in good condition. Use only a cord heavy

enough to carry the current your product will draw. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage result-

ing in loss of power and overheating. A wire gauge size

(A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension

cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier

the cord.

 Inspect tool cords periodically. If damaged, have re-

paired by a qualified service technician at an authorized

service facility. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord

immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and

keep it well away from the rotating blade.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

 Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if

damaged.

 Polarized plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock,

this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the

other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install

the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

 Know your power tool. Read the operator’s manual

carefully. Learn the applications and limitations as well

as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.

 Always wear eye protection with side shields which

is marked to comply with ansi Z87.1 when using this

product. Failure to do so could result in objects being

thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.

5 − English

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

 Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool

is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.

 Keep guards in place and in good working order.

 Use the right direction of feed. Feed work into a blade,

cutter, or sanding spindle against the direction of rotation

of the blade, cutter, or sanding spindle only.

 Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power

off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

 Use only correct blades. Do not use blades with incor-

rect size holes. Never use blade washers or blade bolts

that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade ca-

pacity of your saw is 12 in.

 Before making a cut, be sure all adjustments are

secure.

 Never touch blade or other moving parts during use.

 Double check all setups. Make sure blade is tight and

not making contact with saw or workpiece before con-

necting to power supply.

 Firmly clamp or bolt your tool to a workbench or table

at approximately hip height.

 Make sure the miter table and saw arm (bevel func-

tion) are locked in position before operating your saw.

Lock the miter table by pushing the miter lock lever down.

Lock the saw arm (bevel function) by securely tightening

the bevel lock knob.

 Never move the workpiece or make adjustment to any

cutting angle while the saw is running and the blade

is rotating. Any slip can result in contact with the blade

causing serious personal injury.

 Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a

sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the blade.

ALWAYS make sure you have good balance. NEVER

operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched

position.

 Never stand or have any part of the body in line with the

path of the saw blade.

 Do not turn the motor switch on and off rapidly. This

could cause the saw blade to loosen and could create

a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow

the saw blade to come to a complete stop. Disconnect

your saw from the power supply and securely retighten

the blade bolt.

 If any part of this miter saw is missing or should break,

bend, or fail in any way, or should any electrical compo-

nent fail to perform properly, shut off the power switch,

remove the miter saw plug from the power source and

have damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced before

resuming operation.

 Always turn off the saw before disconnecting it to avoid

accidental starting when reconnecting to power supply.

NEVER leave the saw unattended while connected to a

power source.

 This tool should have the following markings:

• To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and un-

derstand the operator’s manual before using the miter

saw.

• Keep hands and body out of the path of the saw blade.

Contact with the blade will result in serious injury.

• Do not operate saw without guards in place.

• Check guarding system to make sure it is functioning

correctly.

• Do not perform any operation freehand.

• Never reach around the saw blade.

• Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before rais-

ing saw arm, moving workpiece, or changing settings.

• Disconnect the saw from the power source before

changing blade or servicing.

 Always carry the tool only by the carrying handle.

 Avoid direct eye exposure when using the laser guide.

 This saw can tip over if the saw head is released sud-

denly and the saw is not secured to a work surface.

ALWAYS secure this saw to a stable work surface before

any use to avoid serious personal injury.

 Always make sure the saw blade has clearance of all

obstructions before turning the saw on.

ELECTRICAL

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools,

which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded

power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the

internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.

Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.

WARNING:

The double insulated system is intended to protect the

user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s internal

wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid

electrical shock.

NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires

extreme care and knowledge of the system and should

be performed only by a qualified service technician. For

service, we suggest you return the tool to your nearest

authorized service center for repair. Always use original

factory replacement parts when servicing.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be

connected to a power supply that is 120 V, AC only (normal

household current), 60 Hz. Do not operate this tool on

direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a

loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the tool does

not operate when plugged into an outlet, double check the

power supply.

EXTENSION CORDS

When using a power tool at a considerable distance from

a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has

the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in

overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine

the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only

round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories

(UL) should be used.

When working outdoors with a product, use an extension

cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is

designated with “WA” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.

Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or

exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

WARNING:

Before starting any cutting operation, clamp or bolt your

miter saw to a workbench or an approved miter saw stand.

If a miter saw stand is used, read operator’s manual and

follow the instructions for the miter saw stand. Never

operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched

position. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious

personal injury.

The compound miter saw should be mounted to a firm

supporting surface such as a workbench, mounting board,

or miter saw stand. The saw base has four mounting holes.

If using bolts or screws, they should be of sufficient length

to accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex nuts, and

the thickness of the workbench or other mounting surface.

Tighten all bolts or screws securely.

The hole pattern for mounting to a workbench is shown in

figure 8. Carefully 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 workbench

to the floor before operating.

USING THE DEPTH STOP

See Figure 9.

When used, the depth stop limits the downward travel of

the blade when cutting dadoes and other non-through cuts.

To use the depth stop:

 Unplug the saw.

 If the saw is in storage or transport position, unlock the

saw arm.

 Rotate the depth stop away from the motor housing.

 With the end of the depth control knob touching the depth

stop, adjust the depth control knob by turning the knob

until the desired depth of cut is attained.

 A wooden spacer of at least 2 1/4 inches must be placed

between the workpiece and the fence for a consistent

depth of cut in the workpiece. Use the work clamp to

clamp the spacer and another suitable clamp to clamp

the workpiece. Make the slide cut at the desired depth.

See Figures 36 and 37.

 Rotate the depth stop back towards the motor housing

for normal through cuts.

NOTE: The depth stop must be moved toward the motor

housing before locking / unlocking the saw arm.

DUST BAG

See Figure 11.

A dust bag is provided for use on this miter saw. It fits over

the exhaust port on the back of the saw.

NOTE: The exhaust port also accepts 1-1/4 in. vacuum hose.

BLADE WRENCH

See Figure 12.

A blade wrench is included with this saw. One end of the

wrench is a phillips screwdriver and the other end is a hex

key. Use the hex key end when installing or removing blade

and the phillips end when removing or loosening screws. A

storage area for the blade wrench is located on the back of

the miter fence.

WORK CLAMP

See Figure 12.

WARNING:

In some operations, the work clamp assembly may

interfere with the operation of the blade guard assembly.

Always make sure there is no interference with the blade

guard prior to beginning any cutting operation to reduce

the risk of serious personal injury.

The work clamp provides greater control by clamping the

workpiece to the fence or the saw table. It also prevents

the workpiece from creeping toward the saw blade. This is

very helpful when cutting compound miters. Depending on

the cutting operation and the size of the workpiece, it may

be necessary to use a C-clamp or other suitable clamp

instead of the work clamp to secure the workpiece prior to

making the cut.

To install the work clamp:

 Place the work clamp shaft in one of the holes located

behind the miter fence.

 Rotate the work clamp knob to move it up or down as

needed to secure the workpiece.

TO INSTALL / REPLACE THE BLADE

See Figures 16 - 17.

The blade is shipped installed on this miter saw model.

Instructions have been included for reference when

changing or replacing blades.

WARNING:

A 12 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw.

Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade

washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger

blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while

thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from securing

the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations

could result in a serious accident and can cause serious

personal injury.

 Unplug the saw.

 Raise saw arm.

 Using the phillips screwdriver end of the blade wrench,

loosen, but do not remove, the blade bolt cover screw.

Rotate lower blade guard and blade bolt cover up and

back to expose the blade bolt.

 Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt

until the spindle locks.

 Using the hex end of the blade wrench, loosen and

remove the blade bolt.

NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade

bolt clockwise to loosen.

 Remove the outer blade washer. Do not remove the inner

blade washer.

 Wipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer and outer

blade washer where they contact the blade.

WARNING:

If inner blade washer has been removed, replace it before

placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so could cause an

accident since blade will not tighten properly.

 Fit saw blade inside lower blade guard and onto shoulder

of inner washer. The blade teeth point downward at the

front of saw as shown in figure 17.

 Replace the outer blade washer. The double “D” flats on

the blade washers align with the flats on the spindle.

 Depress spindle lock button and replace blade bolt.

NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade bolt

counterclockwise to tighten.

USING THE LASER GUIDE LINE

See Figure 18.

Lock out the trigger switch by installing a long shackled

padlock (not included). Plug the saw into the power source.

Draw a line on the workpiece. When the laser guide switch

is turned on it will generate a red line on the work surface.

This line will let you see your mark and the laser guide line

at the same time, and will assist you in lining up the mark

for more accurate cutting of the workpiece.

With the saw arm at the uppermost position, move the

workpiece until the mark and the laser line are aligned. Once

both lines are in alignment, do not move the workpiece.

Clamp the workpiece.

Remove the padlock. Make several practice cuts on different

styles and thickness of material. Repeat the steps above as

necessary.

Removing Your Mark:

Position the workpiece so that the laser line is near the left

edge of your mark in order to remove the mark.

To Cut Your Mark:

Position the workpiece so that the laser line is near or over

your mark in order to cut the mark.
