ASSEMBLY
2. Place the blade wrench on the arbor bolt.
3. Press the arbor lock button (5), holding it in firmly while
turning the blade counterclockwise. When arbor lock
button engages, continue to press it in while tightening the
arbor bolt securely. (Fig. H).
4. Rotate the cover plate (3) back to its original position until
the slot in the cover plate engages with the cover plate
screw (2). While holding the lower blade guard, tighten the
screw with a Phillips screwdriver. (Fig. G).
NOTE: The lower blade guard must be raised to the upright
position to access the cover plate screw.
5. Lower the blade guard (1) and verify that the operation of
the guard does not bind or stick.
6. Be sure the arbor lock button (5) is released so the blade
turns freely by spinning the blade until the arbor lock
disengages. (Fig. H)
WARNING
• To avoid injury, never use the saw without
the cover plate secure in place. It keeps the arbor bolt
from falling out if it accidentally loosens, and helps
prevent the spinning blade from coming off the saw.
• Make sure the collars are clean and properly arranged.
Lower the blade into the table and check for any contact
with the metal base or the saw table.
REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE TABLE INSERT (FIG. J)
WARNING
To avoid injury:
• Always unplug the saw to avoid accidental starting.
Remove all small pieces of material from the table
cavity before performing any cuts. The table insert
may be removed for this purpose, but always
reattach the table insert prior to performing a cutting
operation.
• Do not start the sliding compound miter saw without
checking for interference between the blade and table
insert. Damage could result to the blade, table insert or
turntable if blade strike occurs during the cutting operation.
1. To remove, loosen and remove the four screws (1) on the
table insert (2) with a Phillips screwdriver and remove the
insert.
2. To install, reposition the table insert (2), install the four
screws (1) and tighten.
