Electrical safety
Your charger is double insulated; therefore no
earth wire is required. Always check that the
mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on
the rating plate. Never attempt to replace the
charger unit with a regular mains plug.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
u
manufacturer or an authorised STANLEY Service Centre
in order to avoid a hazard.

Assembly (Fig. A)
Your mitre saw is part assembled in the carton.
Open the box and lift the saw out by using the carry grips
u
(10) in the base of the saw (Fig. A).
Place the saw on a smooth, flat surface such as a work-
u
bench or strong table.
Examine Assembly diagram on page 2 of this manual to
u
become familiar with the saw and its various parts. The
section on adjustments will refer to these terms and you
must know what and where the parts are.
The mitre locking knob (5) is not assembled for shipping.
u
Remove the mitre locking knob (5) from the packaging
and screw onto the saw, see figure G and J for position.
Your saw has a built-in dust port (14) that allows either
u
the supplied, but not assembled, dust bag (35) or shop

Kerf plate (Fig. J)
The kerf plate (7) is mounted to the table by 6 screws. The
kerf plate (7) height is not adjustable.
Note: If the kerf plate (7) is worn, damaged or needs to be
replaced, repairs should be carried out by authorised repair
agents or STANLEY service staff.
Lock down pin (Fig. F)
Warning! The lock down pin should be used ONLY when
carrying or storing the saw. NEVER use the lock down pin for
any cutting operation.
Note: To lift, carry and support the mitre saw during transport
use the two carrying handles (10) located on both sides of the
mitre saw base (Fig. A).
To lock the saw head in the down position, push the saw head
down, push the lock down pin (20) in and release the saw
head. This will hold the saw head safely down for transporting
the saw from place to place. To release, press the saw head
down and pull the pin out.
Warning! Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery is removed from the tool before adjusting or checking
the tools function.
Charging a battery (fig. B)
The battery needs to be charged before first use and
whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were
easily done before. The battery may become warm while
charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures
below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging
temperature: approx. 24 °C.
Note: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell
temperature is below approximately 10 °C or above 40 °C.
The battery should be left in the charger and the
charger will begin to charge automatically when the cell
temperature warms up or cools down.
Note: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion
battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use.
Plug the charger (21) into an appropriate outlet before
u
inserting battery pack (15).
The green charging light (21a) will blink continuously
u
indicating that the charging process has started.
The completion of charge will be indicated by the green
u
charging light (21a) remaining ON continuously. The
battery pack (15) is fully charged and may be removed
and used at this time or left in the charger (21).
Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
u
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.
