CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Check that the power supply and outlet used is in accordance
with your miter saw. Have a look at the rating plate of the
motor or the rating on the miter saw. Any changes should
always be carried out by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Avoid contact with the terminals on the
plug when installing (removing) the plug to (from)
the power supply outlet. Contact will cause a
severe electrical shock.

MOUNTING THE TOOL

WARNING
TO AVOID INJURY FORM
UNEXPECTED SAW MOVEMENT:
• Disconnect the power cord from the outlet, and lock
the cutting head in the lower position using the
hold-down latch.
• Lock the slide carriage in place by tightening the slide
carriage lock knob.
• To avoid back injury, lift the saw by using the
designated carrying handles located on the top and
rear of the machine. When lifting, bend at your knees,
not from your back.
Top Line (Fig. 26, 28)
If the laser line is angled from left to right, turn the laser
horizontal adjustment knob (2) clockwise to align the laser
line parallel with pattern line. If the laser line is angled from
right to left, turn the knob counterclockwise to align the laser
line parallel with pattern line.
After performing the above adjustments, visually check that
both the front and top laser lines are parallel with pattern line.

NOTE:
• Laser line is calibrated and set up to project to the left of
the blade.
• If you have any problem or question on the laser guide,
please call the Service Center.
USING AN EXTENSION LEAD
The use of any extension lead will cause some loss of power.
To keep this to a minimum and to prevent overheating and
motor burn-out, ask advice from a qualified electrician to
determine the minimum wire size of the extension lead. If the
power cable is broken, repair service is available at your
nearest service center.
• Never carry the miter saw by the power cord or by the
switch handle. Carrying the tool by the power cord
could cause damage to the insulation or the wire
connections resulting in electric shock or fire.
• To avoid injury from flying debris, do not allow visitors
to stand near the saw during any cutting operation.
• Support the saw on a level work surface.
• Bolt or clamp the saw to its support.
