2. Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less
than 150 volts:
If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A, the
machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like
the adapter illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect
this plug to a matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown
in Fig. B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal
screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not
permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE
RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.
1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This machine is
equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is
properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor
receptacles that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in
Fig. A.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
POWER CONNECTIONS
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 120 volts, 60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the machine to the power source,
make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
7
EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire
extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug
and matching receptacle which will accept the
machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the
machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig.
D shows the correct gauge to use depending on the
cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

LOCKING CUTTINGHEAD GUIDE RODS
You can lock the cuttinghead guide rods (C) Fig. 24B to use the saw as a conventional miter saw (chop saw) by
tightening the lock knob (D).
IMPORTANT: Move the cuttinghead to the rear position before locking the guide rods.
ADJUSTING SLIDING FIT BETWEEN GUIDE RODS AND TABLE ASSEMBLY
To adjust the sliding fit between the guide rods (C) Fig. 24B and the table assembly (E):
1. Remove the lock knob (D) and loosen the locknut (F). Use the provided wrenches to hold the locknut (F), and turn
the adjusting nut (G) clockwise to increase or counter-clockwise to decrease the sliding action of the guide rods
(C). This adjustment should not be so tight that it restricts the sliding movement of the cuttinghead arm (B) or so
loose that it affects the accuracy of the cut.
2. After adjusting, use the wrenches to hold the adjusting nut (C) and tighten the locknut (F).
3. Replace the lock knob (D).
NOTE: Periodically, lubricate the guide rods with a light oil or spray lubricant.
1. The downward travel of the saw blade should be limited to
prevent the saw blade from contacting any metal surfaces of
the machine. Make this adjustment by loosening the wing nut
(A) Fig. 24B, and turn the adjusting screw (B) in or out.
2. Lower the blade as far as possible. Rotate the blade by hand
to make certain that the teeth do not contact any metal

AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE
When performing multiple or repetitive
operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one inch or
less), the saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces and project
them out of the machine or into the blade guard and housing,
causing damage or injury. To limit the risk, mount an auxiliary
wood fence on your saw (Fig. 27).
Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence (A)
Fig. 27. This auxiliary fence is constructed of straight wood
approximately 1/2" thick by 3" high by 20" long. NOTE: The
auxiliary fence (A) is used ONLY with the saw blade in the 0
degree bevel position (90 degrees to the table). When bevel
cutting (blade tilted), remove the auxiliary fence.

GENERAL CUTTING OPERATIONS
1. Your machine has the capacity to cut standard 2 x 4’s lying flat or on edge, at the 45 degree right and left miter angles (Figs.
A1 and A2).
2. A standard 2 x 6 can be cut in the 90 degree straight cut-off position in one pass (Fig. A3).
3. Cutting a standard 4 x 4 can be accomplished with one pass (Fig. A4).
4. This machine has the capacity to accurately cut crown mouldings and other bevel-type cuts (Fig. A5).
5. Cutting various sizes of plastic pipe is an easy job with this machine (Fig. A6).

CUTTING ALUMINUM
Aluminum extrusions such as used for making aluminum screens and storm windows can easily be cut with your
compound miter saw. When cutting aluminum extrusions, or other sections that can be cut with a saw blade and are
within the capacity of the machine, position the material so the blade is cutting through the smallest cross-section (Fig.
28). The wrong way to cut aluminum angles is illustrated in Fig. 29. Be sure to apply a stick wax to the blade before
cutting aluminum stock. This stick wax is available at most industrial mill supply houses. The wax provides proper
lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.
Never apply lubricant to the blade while the machine is running.

For support when cutting long pieces, construct a work
support extension. Fig. 32 illustrates the miter saw
mounted on two standard 2 x 4’s (A). Fasten the four
mounting legs (two of which are shown at (B) Fig. 32 to
the 2 x 4’s, using four screws (not supplied) through the
four holes in the mounting legs. The length of the 2 x 4’s
(A) can vary, depending on the workpiece.
NOTE: Ensure that the top of the support 2 x 4’s (C)
are level with the miter saw table. This is critical
because the distance from the top of the 2 x 4’s (A) to the
miter saw table varies from saw to saw. In most cases,
standard 2 x 4’s (C) can used. If these are too high, cut
them to fit. If the 2 x 4’s are too low, use 2 x 6’s. If these
are high, cut them to the correct height.
WORK SUPPORT EXTENSIONS
CUTTING BOWED MATERIAL
When cutting flat pieces, first check to see if the material is bowed. If it is, make sure the material is positioned on the
table as shown in Fig. 30.
If the material is positioned the wrong way, as shown in Fig. 31, the workpiece will pinch the blade near the completion
of the cut.

Pulling the saw toward you while slide cutting can be dangerous, causing the saw to kick upward
and back toward you. ALWAYS PUSH
THE SAW FORWARD, AWAY FROM YOU and toward the
fence.
1. Place the workpiece (A) on the table and against the fence (Fig. 33).
Grasp the cuttinghead handle (B). DO NOT TURN THE SAW "ON" YET.
2. Pull the cuttinghead (C) Fig. 33 toward you and past the workpiece with
the cuttinghead in the “up” position. Depress the switch trigger to start
the saw.
3. Lower the cuttinghead (A) Fig. 34 on the workpiece and push the saw
away from you, toward the fence.
4, After the cut is complete (Fig. 35), release the switch trigger and keep the
cuttinghead down until the blade comes to a stop.
5. When the blade stops turning, raise the cuttinghead to the”up” position
(Fig. 36).

CUTTING CROWN MOULDING
One of the many features of the saw is the ease of cutting crown moulding. The following is an example of cutting both inside and
outside corners on 52°/38° wall angle crown moulding.
1. Move the table to the 31.62° right miter position and lock the table in position. NOTE: A positive stop is provided to find this angle
quickly.
2. Tilt the saw blade to the 33.86° left bevel position and tighten bevel lock handle. NOTE: A triangle indicator is provided on the
bevel scale to find this angle quickly.
3. Place the crown moulding on the table with the CEILING EDGE of the moulding against the fence, and make the cut, as shown
in Fig. B1.
NOTE: The piece of crown moulding used for the outside corner will always be on the right hand side of the blade, as shown at (A)
Fig. B1. The piece of crown moulding used for the inside corner will always be on the left hand side of the blade, as shown at (B)
Fig. B1.
4. To make the matching halves of the inside and outside corners, rotate the table to the 31.62° left miter position.
NOTE: A positive stop is provided to find this angle quickly. The saw blade is already tilted to the 33.86° left bevel position from the
previous cut.
5. Place the crown moulding on the table with the WALL EDGE of the crown moulding against the fence and make the cut. Again,
the piece of crown moulding used for the outside corner will always be on the right side of the blade, as shown at (C) Fig. B2. The
piece of crown moulding used for the inside corner will always be on the left side of the blade, as shown at (D) Fig. B2.
6. Fig. B3 illustrates the two outside corner pieces; (A) being the piece cut at (A) Fig. B1 and (C) being the piece cut at (C) Fig. B2.
7. Fig. B4 illustrates the two inside corner pieces; (B) being the piece cut at (B) Fig. B1, and (D) being the piece cut at (D) Fig. B2.
45-45 CROWN MOULDING
NOTE: If you are cutting crown moulding that is 45°-45°, follow the same procedure above, with the exception that the bevel position
will always be at 30° and the miter position will be 35-1/4° to the right or left.
OTHER ANGLES
NOTE: The above instructions are assuming the angle between the walls is 90°. If you need help cutting crown moulding set at angles
other than 90°, see the instruction sheet “CUTTING CROWN MOULDING” on the Delta Machinery web site at

BRUSH INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT
BEFORE INSPECTING OR REMOVING BRUSHES, DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE
POWER SOURCE.
Brush life varies, depends on the load on the motor. Check the brushes after the first 50 hours of use of a new machine,
or after a new set of brushes has been installed.
After the first check, examine them after about 10 hours of use, until replacement is necessary.
The brush holders (A) Fig. 46 are located on the motor housing opposite each other. Fig. 47 illustrates one of the brushes
removed for inspection. When the carbon on either brush (B) is worn to 3/16" in length, or if either spring or shunt wire
(C) is burned or damaged in any way, replace both brushes. If the brushes are found serviceable after removing, reinstall
them in the same position.
