OPERATION
 Before turning on the saw, perform a practice cut of the
operation just to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
 Grasp the saw handle firmly. Depress the trigger lockout
lever and squeeze the switch trigger. Allow several sec-
onds for the blade to reach maximum speed.
 Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
 Release the switch trigger and allow the blade to stop
rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece. Wait
until the electric brake stops blade from turning before
removing the workpiece from the miter table.
TO BEVEL CUT
See Figures 26 - 27.
A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece with the blade angled to the workpiece. A straight
bevel cut is made with the miter table set at the zero degree
position and the blade set at an angle between 0° and 45°.
NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the partial sliding miter
fence to ensure proper clearance prior to making the cut.
 Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full height.
 Loosen the miter lock handle. Rotate the miter lock
handle approximately one-half turn to the left to loosen.
 Rotate the control arm until the pointer aligns with zero
on the miter scale.
 Tighten the miter lock handle securely.
 The 45° triangle on the miter fence provides for the
maximum clearance required for adjusting the miter saw's
angle when making a bevel or compound cut.
 Loosen the bevel lock knob and move the saw arm to
the left to the desired bevel angle.
 Bevel angles can be set from 0° to 45°.
 Align the indicator point for the desired angle.
 Once the saw arm has been set at the desired angle,
securely tighten the bevel lock knob.
 Place the workpiece flat on the miter table with one edge
securely against the fence. If the board is warped, place
the convex side against the fence. If the concave edge
of a board is placed against the fence, the board could
collapse on the blade at the end of the cut, jamming the
blade. See Figures 32 - 33.
 When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, support
the opposite end of the stock with a roller stand or with
a work surface level with the miter table. See Figure 30.
 Turn the LED switch on.
 Lower the blade and align the cutting line on the
workpiece with the edge of saw blade or the blade
shadow.
 Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it against
the fence. Use the work clamp, C-clamp, or other suitable
clamp to secure the workpiece when possible.
 Before turning on the saw, perform a practice cut of the
operation just to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
 Grasp the saw handle firmly. Depress the trigger lockout
lever and squeeze the switch trigger. Allow several sec-
onds for the blade to reach maximum speed.
 Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
 Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece.
Wait until the electric brake stops blade from turning
before removing the workpiece from miter table.
