GUARD ACTUATION AND CHECKING
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.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY
PACK
(Fig. 15)
To install the battery pack into the tool, align the
battery pack with the rails inside the tool's handle and
slide it into the handle until the battery pack is firmly
seated in the tool. Ensure that it does not disengage.
To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the
battery pack release button and slide the battery pack
completely out of the tool handle.
NOTE:
For best results, make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
UNLOCKING AND LOCKING THE CUTTING
HEAD
(Fig. 16)
To unlock: Press and lightly hold down the cutting head.
Pull out the lock-down pin (1) to release the cutting head.
The cutting head should freely move up.
To lock: Place the cutting head at the lowest position.
Secure the position and push the stop lock pin into the
locking position. Please note, if there is any cutting depth
setting, the lock in may not work. Release the cutting depth
limitation, and then lock the cutting head in.
UNLOCKING THE SLIDE CARRIAGE
(Fig. 17)
After removing the saw from the carton, loosen the slide
carriage lock knob (1). When transporting or storing the
mitre saw, the slide carriage should always be locked in
position. The slide carriage lock knob is located on the
upper side of the slide carriage.
CAUTION!
To avoid injury and damage to the saw, transport and store the mitre saw with the cutting head
locked in the down position. Never use the stop pin to hold the cutting head in a down position
for cutting operations.
CAUTION!
Always make sure that the spindle lock button is released so the blade can rotate freely. MAKE
SURE that the locking pin is loose and the cutting head moves freely up and down. ENSURE that
all clamps and locks are tightly in place, and that there is no excessive play in any parts.
WARNING!
Before each use, verify that the blade is free of cracks, loose teeth, missing teeth, or any other
damage. Do not use if damage is observed or suspected.
Always wait for the blade to stop completely, and disconnect battery pack before changing
accessories or making adjustments.
