REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE TABLE INSERT
(FIG. 7)
NOTE: The miter saw comes with the table inserts
already installed. These instructions are for replacing
or adjusting either insert side.
WARNING
To avoid injury:
● Always unplug the saw to avoid accidental
starting. Remove all small pieces of material from
the table cavity before performing any cuts. The
table insert may be removed for this purpose, but
always reattach the table insert prior to performing
a cutting operation.
● Do not start the sliding compound miter saw
without checking for interference between the
blade and table insert. Damage could result to the
blade, table insert or turntable if blade strike occurs
during the cutting operation.
● To remove, loosen and remove the six screws (1)
on the table insert (2) with a Phillips screwdriver and
remove the insert.
● To install, reposition the table insert, install the six
screws and tighten.
● Check for blade clearance by moving the slide carriage
through the full motion of the blade in the table slot. If
neither side of the insert hits the saw blade, loosen the
three screws for that side and adjust. Tighten the screws
and check again for blade clearance.
