OPERATION
CUTTING WARPED MATERIAL
See Figures 50 - 51.
When cutting warped material, always make sure it is
positioned on the miter table with the convex side against
the fence as shown in figure 50.
If the warped material is positioned the wrong way as shown
in figure 51, it will pinch the blade near the completion of
the cut.
WARNING:
To avoid kickback and serious personal injury, never
position the concave edge of bowed or warped
material against the fence.
CLAMPING WIDE WORKPIECES
See Figure 52.
When cutting wide workpieces, such as a nominal nominal
2 in. x 12 in., boards should be clamped with a work clamp
as shown.
WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply. Failure to
heed this warning could result in serious personal
injury.
The compound miter saw has been adjusted at the fac-
tory for making very accurate cuts. However, some of the
components might have been jarred out of alignment dur-
ing shipping. 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
periodically check the parts alignment to make sure that the
saw is cutting accurately.
PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and
normally do not require readjustment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
 The saw arm should rise completely to the up position
by itself.
 If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play
in the pivot joints, have saw repaired at your nearest
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
