KNOW YOUR MITER SAW
See Figure 3.
Before attempting to use your saw, familiarize yourself
with all operating features and safety requirements.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with your
saw to make you careless. Remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict
severe injury.
13 AMP MOTOR
Your saw has a powerful 13 amp motor with sufficient
power to handle tough cutting jobs. It is made with all
ball bearings, and has externally accessible brushes
for ease of servicing.
10 in. BLADE
A 10 in. saw blade is included with your miter saw.
The 104 tooth crosscut steel blade is fine for most
wood cutting operations, but for fine joinery cuts or
cutting plastic, use one of the accessory blades
available from your nearest Sears store.
