ASSEMBLY
DUST BAG
See Figure 11.
A dust bag is provided for use on the miter saw. It fits over the
exhaust port on the upper blade guard. To install it, squeeze
the two metal clips to open the mouth of the bag and slide
it on the exhaust port. Release the clips. The metal ring in
the bag should lock in between the grooves on the exhaust
port. To remove the dust bag for emptying, simply reverse
the above procedure.
WORK CLAMP
See Figure 12.
WARNING:
In some operations, the work clamp assembly
may interfere with the operation of the blade
guard assembly. Always make sure there is no
interference with the blade guard prior to beginning
any cutting operation to reduce the risk of serious
personal injury.
The work clamp provides greater control by clamping the
workpiece to the fence. It also prevents the workpiece from
creeping toward the saw blade. This is very helpful when
cutting compound miters.
Depending on the cutting operation and the size of the
workpiece, it may be necessary to use a C-clamp instead
of the work clamp to secure the workpiece prior to making
the cut.
To install the work clamp:
 Place the shaft of the work clamp in either hole on the
miter table base.
 Rotate the knob on the work clamp as needed.
