into the workpiece.
4. Brush Caps – These caps keep the motor brush-
es in position and provide easy access for inspect-
ing and replacing brushes.
5. Lower Blade Guard/Lower Guard Lip – The
lower blade guard helps protect your hands from
the spinning blade. It retracts as the blade is low-
ered. Lip can be used to raise the lower guard
when guard becomes jammed on a workpiece.
6. Blade – Use only 10" blades with 5/8" arbor hole.
7. Sliding Fence – Supports the workpiece. The
fence has a cast in scale to make repetitive cuts
easy. The fence also has holes to secure an auxil-
iary fence if desired.
8. Kerf Inserts – Kerf inserts can be adjusted to dif-
ferent blade widths to minimize workpiece tear-out.
9. Miter Detent Override – Allows detent action to
be locked out allowing for micro adjustments to
any miter angle.
10. Miter Scale/Miter Angle Indicator – This scale is
cast in on the base of the saw. Indicator is fas-
tened to the table.
11. Miter Detents – There are ten (10) miter detent
slots for fast and accurate miter cuts of common
miter angles.
12. Miter Detent Lever – The lever releases the
table from the detent.
13. Miter Lock Knob – The miter lock knob locks the
miter saw table at any desired miter angle.
14. Table – Sits in base, provides workpiece support,
rotates for desired miter cuts and rotates the
head assembly. The front extended part of the
table is called the miter arm.
15. Base – Provides working surface to support
workpiece.
16. Tool Mounting Pads – The four corners of the
saw provide areas to clamp, bolt or nail the saw
to a flat work surface.
17. Sliding Base Extensions – These extensions
provide extra workpiece support and are espe-
cially useful when cutting long workpieces.
18. Base Extension Clamping Levers – Locks the
base extensions at desired positions.
19. Length Stop – For repetitive cuts of the same
length. Can be moved to left side, if desired.
20. Dust Port – The dust port can accommodate the
dust chute and dust bag or optional VAC004
