OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

When transporting the saw, turn off the saw and remove the battery pack from the miter saw,
then lower the saw arm and lock it in the "DOWN" position. Lock the saw arm by depressing
the arm-lock pin (AC). A carrying handle (AD) is located on the top of the saw arm. Never lift
the saw by the main handle on the front end of the saw arm or by the fence.
Always maintain a speed and pressure that will allow cutting without overheating the saw
blade. Applying too much pressure will overheat the saw and melt the plastic. Do not force the
saw, let the tool do the work.
WARNING
• To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields.
• Before each use, verify that the blade is free of cracks, loose teeth, missing teeth, or any
other damage. Do not use if damage is observed or suspected.
• Do not start the miter saw without checking for interference between the blade and the miter
fence. Damage could result to the blade if it strikes the miter fence during operation of the saw.
• Always wait for the blade to stop completely, and remove the battery pack from the miter
saw before changing accessories or making adjustments.
