Safety instructions

General power tool safety warnings

Warning! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions listed below may result in electric

shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of ﬂammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating

a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose

control.

2. Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodiﬁed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of

electric shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric

shock.

f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of

electric shock.

Note: The term "Residual Curent Device (RCD)" can be replaced by "Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)" or by "Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB)".

3. Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the

inﬂuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye, ear and respiratory protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is

in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your ﬁnger on the

switch or energising power tools that have the switch on

invites accidents.

ENGLISH

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a

rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. This enables better control of the power tool

in unexpected situations.

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g. devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

4. Power tool use and care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool will do

the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn

it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or

the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

f. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in

accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualiﬁed repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

6. Electrical safety

Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required. Always check that the main voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Warning! If the power cord is damaged, it must

be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized

Black & Decker Service Center or an equally qualiﬁed

person in order to avoid damage or injury. If the power cord

is replaced by an equally qualiﬁed person, but not

authorized by Black & Decker, the warranty will not be valid.

7. Labels on tool

The label on your tool may include the following symbols:

Warning! When using electric tools, basic

safety precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of ﬁre, electric shock, and personal

injury, including the following:

Safety warnings: double insulation

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the tool’s electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.

Note: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

Warning: When servicing all tools, use identical replacement parts. repair or replace

damaged cords.

Safety instructions: polarized plugs

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not ﬁt fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician to install the proper utlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Warning: Failure to heed these warnings may result in personal injury and serious damage to the saw.

Additional safety rules for mitre saws

• Do not use saw blades which are damaged or

deformed.

• Do-Protect electric supply line with at least a 15 ampere time-delay fuse or a circuit breaker.

• Do-Make certain the blade rotates in the correct direction and that the teeth at the bottom of the blade are pointing to the rear of the mitre saw.

• Do-Be sure all clamp handles are tight before starting any operation.

• Do-Be sure all blade and clamp washers are clean and recessed sides of collars are against blade. Tighten arbor screw securely.

• Do-Keep saw blade sharp.

• Do-Keep motor air slots free of chips and dirt.

• Do-Use blade guards at all times.

• Do-Keep hands out of path of saw blade.

• Do-Shut off power, disconnect cord from power source and wait for saw blade to stop before servicing or adjusting tool.

• Don’t-Cut ferrous metals (Those with any iron or steel content) or any masonry.

• Don’t-Use abrasive wheels. The excessive heat and abrasive particles generated by them will damage saw.

• Don’t-Allow anyone to stand behind saw.

• Don’t-Apply lubricants to the blade when it’s running.

• Don’t-Place either hand in the blade area when the saw is connected to the power source.

• Don’t-Use blades rated less than 5500 R.P.M.

• Don’t-Attempt to cut small pieces (hand within 6" of blade) without clamping.

• Don’t-Operate saw without guards in place.

ENGLISH

• Don’t-Perform any operation freehand.

• Don’t-Reach around or behind saw blade.

• Don’t-Place hands closer than 6 inches from the saw blade.

• Don’t-Reach underneath the saw unless it is turned off and unplugged. The saw blade is exposed on the underside of the saw.

• Don’t-Move either hand from saw or workpiece or raise arm until blade has stopped.

• Don’t-Use without Kerf Plate or when kerf slot is wider than 3/8"

• Don’t- Carry saw by work extension or other accessory.

Caution: Some wood contains preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA)

which can be toxic. When cutting these materials extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.

Caution: Use of this tool can generate dust

containing chemicals known to cause cancer,

birth defects or other reproductive harm. Use appropriate respiratory protection.

Caution: Do not connect unit to electrical power

source until complete instructions are read and

understood.

For your convenience and safety, the following warning labels are on your mitre saw.

On motor housing:

Warning: For your own safety, read instruction

manual before operating saw. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. always

wear eye protection.

On fence: Clamp small pieces before cutting. see manual.

On guard:

Danger: Keep away from blade.

On guard retainer plate: “properly secure bracket with both screws before use.” on table: (2 sitios)

Always tighten adjustment knobs before use. Keep hands 6" from path of saw blade. Never perform any operation freehand. Never cross arms in front of

blade. Think! You can prevent accidents. Do not operate saw without guards in place. Never reach in back of saw blade. always wear eye protection. Shut off power and wait for blade to stop before servicing, adjusting tool, or moving hands.

Electrical connection

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. A voltage decrease of 10 percent or more will cause a loss of power and overheating. All B&D tools are factory tested. If this tool does not operate, check the power supply.

Familiarization

Place the saw on a smooth, ﬂat surface such as a workbench or strong table. Examine Fig. A & B and refer to the parts description to become familiar with the saw and its various parts. The following section on adjustments will refer to these terms and you must know what and where the parts are. The part name is followed by the corresponding part number Example - lock down pin (10). Press down lightly on the operating handle and pull out the lock down pin (10), as shown in Fig. C. Gently release the downward pressure and allow the arm to rise to its full height. Use the lock down pin when carrying the saw from one place to another. Use the operating handle (1) to transport the saw or the hand indentations (11) shown in Fig. B after unplugging.

Bench mounting

Bench mounting holes (8) are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting, as shown in FIG. A. (Two different sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes of screws. Use either hole, it is not necessary to use both.) Always mount your saw ﬁrmly to prevent movement. To enhance the tool’s portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 1/2" or thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites and reclamped.

ENGLISH

Note: If you elect to mount your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the mounting screws don’t protrude from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit ﬂush on the work support. When clamping the saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will interfere with the proper operation of the saw.

Caution: To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the mounting surface is not warped or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks on the surface, place a thin piece of material under one saw foot until the saw sits ﬁrmly on the mounting surface.

Installing a new saw blade

(Unplug the mitre saw) do not use ferrous metal or masonry cutting blades in this saw

• Loosen hex bolt on center cover counter clockwise with box wrench.

• Lift up the safe cover and center cover.

• Press down the lock to lock spindle.

• Loosen hex bolt clockwise with box wrench, then dismount the bolt and ﬂange.

• Mount the blade of saw on spindle. Make sure that the arrow direction on surface of saw blade is same as one of the cover.

Note: There are two different internal diameters of cutter in inner plate which have steel stamp marked 25.4mm 16mm. When mounting, the outer diameter of inner plate must be correspondent with the internal diameter of saw blade.

• Mount ﬂange and hex bolt.

• Press axle lock and tighten hex bolt counter clock wise with box wrench ﬁrmly, then tighten hex bolt clockwise to ﬁx centre cover.

Note: Only use attached wrench when mounting or dismounting saw blade. When dismounting saw blade, lift up safe cover and centre cover. Loosen hex bolt with box wrench and disassemble hex bolt, ﬂange and saw blade.

Never depress the spindle lock pin while the blade is rotating. Be sure to hold the guard bracket down and ﬁrmly tighten the guard bracket screw when you ﬁnish installing the saw blade. Failure to do so will cause serious damage to the saw.

Assembling and adjusting your saw

Perform all assembly with saw unplugged. attach mitre clamp handle.

Remove the mitre clamp handle (4) from the plastic parts bag and carefully thread it into the bracket in the front of the saw.

Attaching dust bag

A zippered cloth dust bag is included with your saw. To attach the bag, ﬁt the plastic opening ﬁrmly over the dust spout (9).

Note: The saw can also be used with a vacuum cleaner hose attached to the dust spout or without any attachment.

Adjustments

Perform all adjustments with the mitre saw unplugged.

Note: Your mitre saw is fully and accurately adjusted at the factory at the time of manufacture. If readjustment due to shipping and handling or any other reason is required, follow the steps below to adjust your saw:

• mitre scale adjustment. place a square against the saw’s fence and blade, as shown in Fig. D. (Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate measurement.) Loosen the mitre clamp handle (4) as shown in Fig. E and swing the mitre arm until the mitre latch (5) locks it at the 0 mitre position. Do not tighten the clamp handle. If the saw blade is not exactly perpendicular to the fence, loosen the two screws that hold the handle to the base (shown in Fig. 6) and move the arm of the saw left or right until the blade is perpendicular to the fence, as measured with the square. Retighten the two screws. Pay no attention to the reading of the mitre pointer at this point.

ENGLISH

• Guard actuation and visibility. the blade guard on your saw has been designed to automatically raise when the arm is brought down and to lower over the blade when the arm is raised. The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the saw. Never raise the blade guard manually unless the saw is turned off.

Note: Certain special cuts will require that you manually raise the guard. To do this, simply place your right thumb on the upper side of the guard and roll the guard up just enough to clear the workpiece.Never tie up or otherwise prevent the guard from operating normally.

Operation

Plug the saw into any power source. Refer to the nameplate for voltage. Be sure the cord will not interfere with your work.

Switch

To turn the saw on, depress the trigger switch (16). To turn the tool off, release the switch. There is no provision for locking the switch on.

Body and hand position (see ﬁg. G)

Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating the mitre saw will make cutting easier, more accurate and safer. Never place hands near cutting area. Place hands no closer than 6" from the blade. Hold the workpiece tightly to the table and the fence when cutting. Keep hands in position until the trigger has been released and the blade has completely stopped. Always make dry runs (unpowered) before ﬁnish cuts so that you can check the path of the blade. do not cross hands, as shown in Fig. G.

Cutting with your saw

Note: Although this saw will cut wood and many nonferrous

materials, we will limit our discussion to the cutting of wood only. The same guidelines apply to the other materials. Do not cut ferrous (iron and steel) materials or masonry with this saw. Do not use any abrasive blades.

Crosscuts

Note: Cutting of multiple pieces is not recommended, but

can be done safely by ensuring that each piece is held ﬁrmly against the table and fence. A crosscut is made by cutting wood across the grain at any angle.

• A straight crosscut is made with the mitre arm at the zero degree position. Set the mitre arm at zero, hold the wood on the table and ﬁrmly against the fence. Turn on the saw by squeezing the trigger switch.

• When the saw comes up to speed (about 1 second) lower the arm smoothly and slowly to cut through the wood. Let the blade come to a full stop before raising arm.

• Mitre crosscuts are made with the mitre arm at some angle other than zero. This angle is often 45º degrees for making corners, but can be set anywhere from zero to degrees left or right. After selecting the desired mitre angle, be sure to tighten the mitre clamp handle (4). Make the cut as described above.

Bevel cuts

A bevel cut is a crosscut made with the saw blade at a bevel to the wood. In order to set the bevel, loosen the bevel clamp knob (17) and move the saw to the left as desired. Once the desired bevel angle has been set, tighten the bevel clamp knob ﬁrmly. Bevel angles can be set up to 45º degrees left and can be cut with the mitre arm set between zero and 47º degrees right or left.

Quality of cut

• The smoothness of any cut depends on a number of variables. Things like material being cut, blade type, blade sharpness and rate of cut all contribute to the quality of the cut.

• When smoothest cuts are desired for molding and other precision work, a sharp (60 tooth carbide) blade and a slower, even cutting rate will produce the desired results.

• Ensure that material does not creep while cutting, clamp it securely in place. Always let the blade come to a full stop before raising arm.

• If small ﬁbers of wood still split out at the rear of the workpiece, stick a piece of masking tape on the wood where the cut will be made. Saw through the tape and carefully remove tape when ﬁnished.

• Keep both feet ﬁrmly on the ﬂoor and maintain proper balance. As you move the mitre arm left and right, follow it and stand slightly to the side of the saw blade. Sight through the guard louvers when following a pencil line.

Clamping the workpiece

Turn off and unplug saw.

• If you cannot secure the workpiece on the table and against the fence by hand (irregular shape, etc.) or your hand will be within 6” of the blade, a clamp or ﬁxture must be used.

• Other convenient clamps such as spring, bar or C clamps may be appropriate for certain sizes and shapes of workpieces. Use care in selecting and placing these clamps and make a dry run before making the cut.

Support for long pieces

Turn off and unplug saw. Always support long pieces. For best results, use an extension work support to extend the table width of your saw. Support long workpieces using any convenient means such as sawhorses or similar devices to keep the ends from dropping.

Cutting picture frames, and other four sided projects

• To best understand how to make the items listed here, we suggest that you try a few simple projects using scrap wood until you develop a “FEEL” for your saw.

• Your saw is the perfect tool for mitering corners like the ones shown in FIG. H, which shows a joint made by setting the mitre arm at 45º degrees to to mitre the two boards to form a 90º degree corner. To make this type of joint, set the mitre arm to 45º degrees. The wood was positioned with the broad ﬂat side against the table and the narrow edge against the fence.

• As the number of sides changes, so do the mitre angles. The chart below gives the proper angles for

a variety of shapes. (The chart assumes that all sides

are of equal length.)

• For a shape that is not shown in the chart, use the following formula. 180º degrees divided by the number of sides equals the mitre.

Examples

Cutting compound mitres

The A compound mitre is a cut made using a mitre angle and a bevel angle at the same time. This is the type of cut used to make frames or boxes with slanting sides like the one shown in Fig. H.

Note: If the cutting angle varies from cut to cut, check that

the bevel clamp knob (10) and the mitre clamp handle (4) are securely tightened. These knobs must be tightened after making any changes in bevel or mitre.

Cutting crown molding

• In order to ﬁt properly, crown molding must be mitreed with extreme accuracy. The two ﬂat surfaces on a given piece of crown molding are at angles that, when added together, equal exactly 90º degrees. Most, but not all, crown molding has a top rear angle (the section that ﬁts ﬂat against the ceiling) of 52º degrees and a bottom rear angle (the part that ﬁts ﬂat against the wall) of 38º degrees.

• Pretesting with scrap material is extremely important! Place the bottom side (the side that will be against the wall) against the mitre saw fence. Place the top (that part that will be against the ceiling) against the saw table and the crown molding fence.

Instructions for cutting crown molding angled between the fence and the table of the saw for all cuts:

• Angle the molding so the bottom of the molding (part which goes against the wall when installed) is against the fence and the top of the molding is resting on the table of the saw.

• The angled “ﬂats” on the back of the molding must rest squarely on the fence and table of the saw.

• Mitre left at 45° • Mitre right at 45°

• Save the right side of cut • Save left side of cut

Always make dry runs to check for clearance and correctness of cuts.

Never make any cuts unless the material is secured on the table and against the fence.

Special cuts

Aluminum cutting (Carbide tipped blade only)

• Aluminum extrusions such as those used when making aluminum screens and storm windows can easily be cut with your saw using the proper blade designed for non-ferrous metal cutting. Position the material so that you will be cutting the thinnest cross section, as shown in Fig. I.

• Fig. J illustrates the wrong way to cut these extrusions. Use a wax lubricant when cutting aluminum such as Johnson’s Stick Wax No.140. Apply the stick wax directly to the saw blade before cutting.

• Never apply stick wax to a moving blade. The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial mill supply houses, provides proper lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.

• Be sure to properly secure work. Certain workpieces, due to their size, shape or surface ﬁnish, may require the use of a clamp, jig or ﬁxture to prevent movement during the cut.

Bowed material

The When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Fig. K and never like that shown in Fig. L. Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the completion of the cut.

Cutting plastic pipe and other round cross-sectional material

Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood and clamped or held ﬁrmly to the fence to keep it from rolling particularly when making angle cuts.

Accessories

The performance of your tool depends on the accessory used. Black & Decker and Piranha accessories are engineered to high quality standards and designed to enhance the performance of your tool. By using these accessories you will get the very best from your tool.

Maintenance

Perform all maintenance with mitre saw unplugged.

1. All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and need no further maintenance.

2. Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around and under the base and the rotary table. Even though slots are provided to allow debris to pass through, some dust will accumulate.

3. The brushes are designed to give you several years of use. If they ever need replacement follow the instructions in this manual or return the tool to the nearest service center for repair.

Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

Warning: Before performing any maintenance, switch off and unplug the tool.

• Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool using a soft brush or dry cloth.

• Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.

• If the table insert / slot is worn, please take this tool to authorized Black & Decker Service Center to replace it in order to avoid damage or injury.
