See Figure 1.
The safe use of this product requires an understanding of the
information on the tool and in this operator's manual as well
as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before use
of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating features
and safety rules.
7-1/4 in. BLADE
A 7-1/4 in. blade is included with the compound miter saw. It will
cut nominal materials up to 2 in. thick by 10 in. wide, depending
upon the angle at which the cut is being made.
BLADE WRENCH STORAGE
See Figure 1.
A blade wrench is packed with the 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 in the saw's base.
BEVEL LOCK KNOB
See Figure 2.
The bevel lock knob securely locks your compound miter saw
at desired bevel angles. A positive stop adjustment screw has
been provided on each side of the saw arm. These adjustment
screws are for making fine adjustments at 0° and 45°.
CARRYING HANDLES
See Figure 2.
For convenience when carrying or transporting the miter saw
from one place to another, a carrying handle has been provided
with handles on either side of the base. To transport, turn off
and remove the battery, then lower the saw arm and lock it in
the down position by depressing the lock pin towards the saw
housing.
NOTE: DO NOT perform any cutting operation with the saw in
the locked position.
CROWN INDICATOR
See Figure 1.
For use with the auxiliary fence. To cut crown molding nested
against the auxiliary fence in the upright position, align the arrow
on the crown indicator with the arrow on the pivot assembly
and tighten the slide lock knob securely.
DETENT OVERRIDE
See Figure 3.
The detent override allows the miter table to move freely to any
desired angle. With the miter lock handle loosened and the detent
release lever squeezed (1), pull the detent override up (2) and
release the detent release lever (3) to bypass the positive stops
on the miter scale. To release the detent override and allow the
miter table to engage the positive stops, squeeze and release
the detent release lever.

An electric brake has been provided to quickly stop blade
rotation after the switch is released.
