Miter gauge
Use the miter gauge for the 4 types of cutting shown in the figure.
CAUTION
Secure the knob on the miter gauge carefully.
Avoid creep of workplace and gauge by firm work holding arrangement, especially when cutting at an angle.
Never hold or grasp the intended "cut-off" portion of the workplace.
Use of miter gauge (Fig. 64) (not included with all models)
Slide the miler gauge into the thick grooves in the table. Loosen the knob on the gauge and align to desired angle (0 to 60. Bring stock flush up against lance
o
and teed gently forward into the blade.
Auxiliary wood facing (miter gauge) (Fig. 65)
To prevent a long board from wobbling fit the miter gauge with an auxiliary fence board. Fasten with bolts/ nuts alter drilling holes, but fasteners must not
protrude from the face board.
Carrying tool (Fig. 66)
Make sure that the tool is unplugged. For the tool just used in the miter saw mode, secure the blade at 0° bevel angle and the turn table at 0° miler angle. Lower
the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position by fully pushing in the stopper pin.
Carry the tool by holding the tool part shown in the figure. (Fig. 67)
CAUTION
Always secure all moving portions before carrying the tool.
Before carrying the tool, always set up the tool in the miter saw mode.
Make sure that the lower blade guard C is installed on the tool.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
WARNING
Always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean for me best and safest performance.
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:
Miter angle
Miter angle 0° adjusting bolts are located in four positions.
Loosen four miter angle 0° adjusting bolts by turning counterclockwise from the underside of the table. (Fig. 68)
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position by pulling and rotating the stopper pin in the angle of 90° clockwise. Square the side of the blade
with the face of the guide fence using a triangular rule, fry-square, etc. Then securely tighten the four adjusting bolts on the sub arm from the underside of
the table. Make sure that the pointer points to 0° on the miter scale, If not so, adjust the pointer position by loosening the screw securing the pointer. Alter
adjusting if, securely lighten the screw. (Fig. 69)
Bevel angle
1. 0° bevel angle
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the towered position by pulling and rotating the stopper pin to the angle of 90° clockwise. Loosen the lever at the rear of the tool.
Turn from the underside of the table, the 0° bevel angle adjusting bolt on the right side of the sub arm Iwo or three revolutions counterclockwise to tilt the
blade to the right. (Fig. 70)
Carefully square the side of the blade with the lop surface of the turn table using the triangular rule, try-square, etc. by turning the 0° bevel angle adjusting
bolt clockwise. (Fig, 71)
Make sure that the pointer on the turn table point to 0° on the bevel scale on the arm. If it does not point to 0°, loosen the screw which secures the pointer
and adjust the pointer so that it will point to 0°,
2. 45° bevel angle
