ASSEMBLY
REMOVE ALL THE PARTS FROM THE BOX
Your Sliding Compound Miter Saw is fully assembled in the carton with the
exception of some small accessories.
Check to ensure everything you need is included:
● 2 extensions- one for each side
● hold-down clamp assembly
● dust bag
● 2 AA batteries.
WARNING! Always disconnect the tool from power source before
making any adjustments, storing, servicing, or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
● Unlock the saw from its various storage and shipping positions.
● To disengage the cutting head from its shipping and storage position,
push down lightly on it and pull out the spring-loaded head locking
button on the right side shown at I, fig.2. Turn it a quarter turn until the
pin in the shaft rests in the small groove to hold the button out.
● Ensure the table lateral extensions, hold-down clamp, and dust bag are
properly attached.
TABLE EXTENSIONS
Two table side extensions (A & T, fig.1 & 2) are included with your saw to
help support longer pieces of material.
● Each fits into two holes (fig 3, BB & CC) on the left or right side of the
saw table and is fastened with a thumb screw.
● The two extensions can be slid completely into the saw base for
convenient storage or can be extended to widen the supported area.
● Install the lateral extensions (A & T, fig.3), sliding each one, with the
end curved upward, into the double holes at the left and right sides of
the table. The extensions must be fastened in place by tightening the
thumb screw (fig 3, DD) recessed at the front of the table bed.
HOLD-DOWN CLAMP ASSEMBLY:
1. The hold down clamp included can be installed in either of the two holes
positioned just behind the fence at both the left and right ends.
2. Slide the shaft into the hole and then tighten the hold-down clamp
retention screw (B, fig.1 & 4).
• You can adjust the height and position of the clamping arm according
to the thickness and shape of the workpiece with the knob at the
back top.
• Place the workpiece on the table tightly against the fence and slide it
to the desired cutting position.
• Tighten the hold-down clamp fine height adjustment knob (D, fig.1 &
2) to secure the workpiece.
LASER
1. Locate the red laser switch (C, fig 1 & 4) on the left side of the saw head
assembly.
2. Press in the retention tab and lift the switch/cover off the laser battery
compartment.
3. Insert two AA batteries.
4. Re-install the switch/cover.
SAWDUST COLLECTION
You can operate this machine more safely and conveniently with a dust
collector.
1. Connect a dust collection system hose (not included) to the dust
collection port nozzle on the back of the metal guard (EE, fig.4).
2. If a dust collector is not available or convenient, use the included dust
bag and fit it to the dust collection port at the back of the guard (fig 5).
3. Attach the dust bag (K fig. 5) over the dust port by squeezing the
springs in the bag's opening.
