following.
1. READ and become familiar with the entire Operators
Manual. LEARN the tool's application, limitations and
possible hazards.
2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before
turning ON.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
5. DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.
Don't use power tools in damp locations, or expose
them to rain or snow. Keep work area well lighted.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors and bystanders
should be kept a safe distance from work area.
7. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
8. DON'T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which itwas designed.
9. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force the tool or an
attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
10.USE PROPER EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will result in a drop in line voltage and in loss of
power which will cause the tool to overheat. The table
on page 5 shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
11.WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip
footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair.
12.ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any power tool
can throw foreign objects into the eyes and
could cause permanent eye damage.
ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (not
glasses) that comply with ANSI Safety
standard Z87.1 Everyday eyeglasses
have only impact -resistance lenses.
They ARE NOT safety glasses. Safety Goggles are
available at Sears. NOTE: Glasses or goggles not in
compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could seriously injure
you when they break.
13.WEAR A FACE MASK OR DUST MASK. Sawing
operation produces dust.
14.SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical, It's safer than using your hand and it
frees both hands to operate the tool,

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS
COMPOUND MITER SAW
1. USE ONLY CROSS-CUTTING SAW BLADES. When
using carbide tipped blades, make sure they have a
negative hook angle.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THIN KERF BLADES-
they can deflect and contact guard and can cause
possible injury to the operator.
2. DO NOT operate the miter saw until it is completely
assembled and installed according to these
instructions.
3. IF YOU ARE NOT thoroughly familiar with the operation
of miter saws, seek guidance from your supervisor,
instructor, or other qualified person.
4. ALWAYS hold the work firmly against the fence and
table. DO NOT perform any operation free hand (use
clamp wherever possible).
5. KEEP HANDS out of the path of the saw blade. If the
workpiece you are cutting would cause your hands to
be within 7-1/4" inches of the saw blade, the workpiece
should be clamped in place before making the cut.
6. BE SURE the blade is sharp, runs freely, and is free of
vibration.
18.MAKE SURE the blade is not contacting the workpiece
before the switch is turned ON.
19.IMPORTANT: After completing the cut, release the
power switch and wait for the blade to stop before
returning the saw to the raised position.
20.MAKE SURE the blade has come to a complete stop
before removing or securing the workpiece, changing
the workpiece angle, or changing the angle of the
blade.
21.NEVER cut metals or masonry products with this tool.
This miter saw is designed for use on wood and
wood-like products.
22.NEVER cut small pieces. Ifthe workpiece being cut
would cause your hand or fingers to be within 7-1/4"
inches of the saw blade the workpiece is too small.
23.PROVIDE adequate support to the sides of the saw
table for long work pieces.
24.NEVER use the miter saw in an area with flammable
liquids or gases.
25.NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. Solvents
could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the
material.
7. ALLOW the motor to come up to full speed before
starting a cut.
8. KEEP THE MOTOR AIR SLOTS CLEAN and free of
chips or dust.
9. ALWAYS MAKE SURE all handles are tight before
cutting, even if the table is positioned in one of the
positive stops.
10.BE SURE both the blade and the collar are clean and
the arbor bolt is tightened securely.
11.USE only blade collars specified for your saw.
12. NEVER use blades larger or smaller in diameter than
10-inches.
13. NEVER apply lubricants to the blade when it is
running.
14. ALWAYS check the blade for cracks or damage before
operation. Replace a cracked or damaged blade
immediately.
15. NEVER use blades recommended for operation at less
than 4800 RPM.
16.ALWAYS keep the blade guards in place and use at all
times.
17.NEVER reach around the saw blade.
26.SHUT OFF the power before servicing or adjusting the
tool.
27.DISCONNECT the saw from the power source and
clean the machine when finished using.
28.MAKE SURE the work area is clean before leaving the
machine.
29.SHOULD any part of your miter saw be missing,
damaged, or fail in any way, or any electrical
component fail to perform properly, shut off the switch
and remove the plug from the power supply outlet.
Replace missing, damaged, or failed parts before
resuming operation.
POWER SUPPLY AND MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
The AC motor used in this saw is a universal,
nonreversible type. See "MOTOR" in the "PRODUCT
SPECIFICATIONS" section on page 2.
To avoid electrical hazards, fire hazards, or damage to the
tool, use proper circuit protection. Your saw is wired at the
factory for 120V operation. Connect to a 120V, 15 Amp
circuit and use a 15 amp. time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
To avoid shock or fire, if power cord is worn or cut, or
damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS - cont'd
DOUBLE INSULATED []
The power tool is double insulated to provide a double
thickness of insulation between you and tool's electrical
system. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the
internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
Replacement parts - When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
Polarized plugs - This saw has a plug that looks like the
one shown below:
.... _:: :!i¸
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this saw 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 in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
4. FUSES may "blow" or circuit breakers may trip
frequently if:
a. MOTOR is overloaded - overloading can occur if
you feed too rapidly or make too many start/stops
in a short time.
b. LINE VOLTAGE is more than 10% above or below
the nameplate voltage rating. For heavy loads, the
voltage at motor terminals must equal the voltage
specified on the nameplate.
c. IMPROPER or dull saw blades are used.
5.Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect
connections, overload, low voltage or inadequate power
supply wiring. Always check the connections, the load
and supply circuit if the motor doesn't run well. Check
minimum gauge for the length of cord you are using on
the chart below.
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
Use a proper extension cord. Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage, resulting in loss of power and cause
overheating. The table below shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety
precautions when operating this tool.
To avoid electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when servicing a
tool with double insulation. Servicing should be performed
by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use power tools in wet or damp locations or
expose them to rain or snow.
MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
IMPORTANT:
To avoid motor damage, the motor should be blown out or
vacuumed frequently to keep sawdust from interfering with
the motor ventilation.
1.CONNECT this saw to a 120'7, 15 amp. circuit with a 15
amp. time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using the wrong
size fuse can damage the motor.
2.If the motor won't start, release the trigger switch
immediately. UNPLUG THE SAW. Check the saw blade
to make sure it turns freely. If the blade is free, try to
start the saw again. If the motor still does not start, refer
to the "TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE"
3.If the tool suddenly stalls while cutting wood, release the
trigger switch, unplug the tool, and free the blade from
the wood. The saw may now be started and the cut
finished.
Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in
good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord
or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive
heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This
circuit must not be less than # 12 wire and should be
protected with a 15 Amp time delay fuse. Before
connecting the tool to the power line, make sure the switch
is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the
same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate,
running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

Read warnings and conditions on your CARBIDE TIPPED
SAW BLADE. Do not operate the saw without the proper
saw blade guard in place. Carbide is a very hard but brittle
material. Care should be taken while mounting, using, and
storing carbide tipped blades to prevent accidental
damage. Slight shocks, such as striking the tip while
handling, can seriously damage the blade. Foreign objects
in the workpiece, such as wire or nails, can also cause tips
to crack or break off. Before using, always visually
examine the blade and tips for bent teeth, cracks,
breakage, missing or loose tips, or other damage. Do not
use if damage is suspected. Failure to heed safety
instructions and warnings can result in serious bodily
injury.
UNPACKING YOUR MITER SAW
To avoid injury from unexpected starting or electrical shock,
do not plug the power cord into a source of power during
unpacking and assembly. This cord must remain
unplugged whenever you are adjusting/assembling the
saw,
