WRONG
WARNING: To avoid a kickback and to
avoid serious personal injury, never position
the concave edge of bowed or warped mate-
rial against the fence.
CLAMPING WIDE
WORKPIECES
When cutting wide
workpieces, such as
2 in. x 6 in., boards
should
be
clamped
with a C-clamp.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: Before performing any adjust-
ment, make sure the tool is unplugged from
the power supply. Failure to heed this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
The Sliding compound miter saw has been ad-
justed at the factory for making very accurate
cuts. However, some of the components might
have been jarred out of alignment during ship-
ping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment
will probably become necessary due to wear.
After unpacking the saw, check the following
adjustments before you begin using saw. Make
any readjustments that are necessary and pe-
riodically check the parts alignment to make
sure that the saw is cutting accurately.
CAUTION: Do not start the compound mi-
ter saw without checking for interference be-
tween the blade and the throat plate. Damage
could result to the blade if it strikes the throat
plate during operation of the saw.
PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: These adjustments were made at the
factory and normally do not require readjust-
ment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
• The saw arm should rise completely to the up
position by itself.
28
• If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if
there is play in the pivot joints, have saw re-
paired by at your nearest authorized service
center.
BEVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
• The compound miter saw should bevel easily
by loosening the bevel lock knob and tilting
the saw arm to the left.
• If movement is tight or if there is play in the
pivot, have saw repaired by at your nearest
authorized service center.
DEPTH STOP
The depth stop limits the blade's downward
travel. It allows the blade to go below the
miter table enough to maintain full cutting
capacities. The depth stop positions the blade
1/4 in. from the miter table support.
NOTE: The miter table support is located inside
the miter table.
The depth stop is fac-
tory set to provide
maximum
cutting
capacity for the 10 in.
blade provided with
the saw. Therefore,
the saw with blade
provided should never
need adjustments.
However, when the diameter of the blade
has been reduced due to sharpening, it may
be necessary to adjust the depth stop to pro-
vide maximum cutting capacity. Also, when a
new blade is installed, it is necessary to check
the clearance of the blade to the miter table
support before starting the saw. Make adjust-
ments if needed.
DEPTH STOP ADJUSTMENTS
• Unplug your saw.
WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw
could result in accidental starting causing pos-
sible serious personal injury.
• To adjust the depth stop use a 10 mm wrench
or adjustable wrench and loosen the hex nut at
the rear of the miter saw arm.
• Use a 5 mm hex key wrench to adjust the
depth stop adjustment screw. The saw blade
is lowered by turning the screw counter-clock-
wise and raised by turning the screw clockwise.
