ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to slide compound saw safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

1. Wear eye protection.

2. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid

contact with any coasting blade. It can still cause severe injury.

3. Do not operate saw without guards in place. Check blade guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate saw if blade guard

does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the blade guard into the open position.

4. Do not perform any operation freehand. The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn base and guide fence with a vise during all operations. Never use your hand to secure the workpiece.

5. Never reach around saw blade.

Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before moving workpiece or changing settings.

7. Remove battery from tool before changing blade or servicing.

8. To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the full rear position after each crosscut operation.

9. Always secure all moving portions before carrying the tool.

10. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down is for carrying and storage purposes only and not for any cutting operations.

11. Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, because it does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet.

12.

Do not use the tool in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

operation of the tool could create an explosion and fire when exposed to flammable liquids or gases.

13. Check the blade carefully for cracks or

damage before operation. Replace cracked or damaged blade immediately. Gum and wood

pitch hardened on blades slows saw and increases potential for kickback. Keep blade clean by first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene. Never use gasoline to clean blade.

14.

While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can occur. KICKBACK occurs when the blade binds in the workpiece during a cutting operation and the saw blade is driven rapidly towards the operator. Loss of control and serious personal injury can result. If blade begins to bind during a cutting operation, do not continue to cut and release switch immediately.

15. Use only flanges specified for this tool.

16. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges

(especially the installing surface) or bolt. Damage to these parts could result in blade breakage.

17.

Make sure that the turn base is properly secured so it will not move during operation. Use the holes in the base to fasten the saw to

The electrical

a stable work platform or bench. NEVER use tool where operator positioning would be awkward.

18.

For your safety, remove the chips, small pieces, etc. from the table top before operation.

19. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation.

20. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the switch is turned on.

21. Be sure that the blade does not contact the turn base in the lowest position.

22. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw moves up or down slightly during start-up and stopping.

23. Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

24. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced blade.

25. Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.

26. Stop operation immediately if you notice anything abnormal.

27. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the "ON" position.

28. Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Do not be lulled into a false sense of security. Blades are extremely unforgiving.

29. Always use accessories recommended in this manual. Use of improper accessories such as abrasive wheels may cause an injury.

30. NEVER hold workpiece on right side of blade with left hand or vice versa. This is called cross-armed cutting and exposes user to risk of SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY as shown in the figure. ALWAYS use vise to secure workpiece.

000030

31. NEVER stack workpieces on the table top to

speed cutting operations. Cut only one piece at a time.

32. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.

Securing workpiece

WARNING:

• It is extremely important to always secure the

workpiece correctly with the proper type of vise. Failure to do so may result in serious personal

injury and cause damage to the tool and/or the workpiece.

• After a cutting operation do not raise the blade

until it has come to a complete stop. The raising of a coasting blade may result in serious personal injury and damage to the workpiece.

• When cutting a workpiece that is longer than

the support base of the saw, the material should be supported the entire length beyond the support base and at the same height to keep the material level. Proper workpiece support

will help avoid blade pinch and possible kickback which may result in serious personal injury. Do not rely solely on the vertical vise and/or horizontal vise to secure the workpiece. Thin material tends to sag. Support workpiece over its entire length to avoid blade pinch and possible KICKBACK.

when cutting. Too much force may result in overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency. Push down handle with only as much force as is necessary for smooth cutting and without significant decrease in blade speed.

• Gently press down the handle to perform the cut. If

the handle is pressed down with force or if lateral force is applied, the blade will vibrate and leave a mark (saw mark) in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.

• During a slide cut, gently push the carriage toward

the guide fence without stopping. If the carriage movement is stopped during the cut, a mark will be left in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.

WARNING:

• Make sure the blade is not contacting the

workpiece, etc. before the switch is turned on. Turning the tool on with the blade in contact with the workpiece may result in kickback and serious personal injury.

1. Press cutting (cutting small workpieces)

1. Clamp screw

011248

Workpieces up to 52 mm (2-1/16") high and 97 mm (3-13/16") wide can be cut in the following manner. Push the carriage toward the guide fence fully and tighten two clamp screws which secure the slide poles clockwise to secure the carriage. Secure the workpiece with the proper type of vise. Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact and wait until the blade attains full speed before lowering. Then gently lower the handle to the fully lowered position to cut the workpiece. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.

WARNING:

• Firmly tighten two clamping screws which

secure the slide poles clockwise so that the carriage will not move during operation.

Insufficient tightening of the locking screw may cause possible kickback which may result in serious personal injury.

2. Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide workpieces)

THE BLADE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.

WARNING:

• Whenever performing a slide cut, first pull the

carriage full towards you and press the handle all the way down, then push the carriage toward the guide fence. Never start the cut with the carriage not pulled fully toward you. If you

perform the slide cut without the carriage pulled fully toward you unexpected kickback may occur and serious personal injury may result.

• Never attempt to perform a slide cut by pulling

the carriage towards you. Pulling the carriage towards you while cutting may cause unexpected kickback resulting in possible serious personal injury.

• Never perform the slide cut with the handle locked

in the lowered position.

• Never loosen the knob which secures the

carriage while the blade is rotating. A loose carriage while cutting may cause unexpected kickback resulting in possible in serious personal injury.

3. Miter cutting

Refer to the previously covered "Adjusting the miter angle".

4. Bevel cut

011245

Loosen two clamp screws which secure the slide poles counterclockwise so that the carriage can slide freely. Secure the workpiece with the proper type of vise. Pull the carriage toward you fully. Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact and wait until the blade attains full speed. Press the handle down and PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE AND THROUGH THE WORKPIECE. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL

011246

Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the bevel angle (Refer to the previously covered "Adjusting the bevel angle"). Be sure to retighten the lever firmly to secure the selected bevel angle safely. Secure the workpiece with a vise. Make sure the carriage is pulled all the way back toward the operator. Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact and wait until the blade attains full speed. Then gently lower the handle to the fully lowered position while applying pressure in parallel with the blade and PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE TO CUT THE WORKPIECE. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning

the blade to its fully elevated position.

WARNING:

• After setting the blade for a bevel cut, before

operating the tool ensure that the carriage and blade will have free travel throughout the entire range of the intended cut. Interruption of the

carriage or blade travel during the cutting operation may result in kickback and serious personal injury.

• While making a bevel cut keep hands out of the

path of the blade. The angle of the blade may confuse the operator as to the actual blade path while cutting and contact with the blade will result in serious personal injury.

• The blade should not be raised until it has

come to a complete stop. During a bevel cut the piece cut off may come to rest against the blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating the cut-off piece maybe ejected by the blade causing the material to fragment which may result in serious personal injury.

NOTICE:

• When pressing down the handle, apply pressure in

parallel with the blade. If a force is applied perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pressure direction is changed during a cut, the precision of the cut will be impaired.

5. Compound cutting

Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be performed at the angle shown in the table.

When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press cutting", "Slide cutting", "Miter cutting" and "Bevel cut" explanations.

6. Cutting crown and cove moldings

Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a compound miter saw with the moldings laid flat on the turn base. There are two common types of crown moldings and one type of cove moldings; 52/38° wall angle crown molding, 45° wall angle crown molding and 45° wall angle cove molding. See illustrations.

CAUTION:

• Use the straight wood of even thickness as the

wood facing.

WARNING:

• Use screws to attach the wood facing to the

guide fence. The screws should be installed so that the screw heads are below the surface of the wood facing so that they will not interfere with the positioning of the material being cut. Misalignment of the material being cut

can case unexpected movement during the cutting operation which may result in a loss of control and serious personal injury.

NOTICE:

• When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the

turn base with the handle lowered. The blade and/or the wood facing will be damaged.

8. Cutting repetitive lengths

1. Set plate

001846

2. Holder

3. Screw

When cutting several pieces of stock to the same length, ranging from 220 mm (8-5/8") to 385 mm (15-1/8"), use of the set plate (optional accessory) will facilitate more efficient operation. Install the set plate on the holder (optional accessory) as shown in the figure. Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either the left or right side of the groove in the kerf board, and while holding the workpiece from moving,

move the set plate flush against the end of the workpiece. Then secure the set plate with the screw. When the set plate is not used, loosen the screw and turn the set plate out of the way.

NOTE:

• Use of the holder-rod assembly (optional

accessory) allows cutting repetitive lengths up to 2,200 mm (7.2ft) approximately.

9. Groove cutting

1. Cut grooves with blade

001563

A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as follows: Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using the adjusting screw and the stopper arm to limit the cutting depth of the blade. Refer to "Stopper arm" section described on previously. After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade, cut parallel grooves across the width of the workpiece using a slide (push) cut as shown in the figure. Then remove the workpiece material between the grooves with a chisel.

WARNING:

• Do not attempt to perform this type of cut by

using a wider type blade or dado blade. Attempting to make a groove cut with a wider blade or dado blade could lead to unexpected cutting results and kickback which may result in serious personal injury

• Be sure to return the stopper arm to the

original position when performing other than groove cutting. Attempting to make cuts with the

stopper arm in the incorrect position could lead to unexpected cutting results and kickback which may result in serious personal injury.

cause kickback and result in a serious personal injury.

1. Stopper pin

NOTICE:

• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the

like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

Adjusting the cutting angle

This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at the factory, but rough handling may have affected the alignment. If your tool is not aligned properly, perform the following:

1. Miter angle

1. Guide fence

2. Hex bolt

011247

Make sure that the battery cartridge is removed. Secure the blade at 0° bevel angle and the turn base at the full right miter angle position. Secure the slide poles after pulling the carriage toward the guide fence fully. Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position by pushing in the stopper pin. Carry the tool by holding both sides of the tool base as shown in the figure. If you remove the holders, dust bag, etc., you can carry the tool more easily.
