FENCE OPERATION (FIG. 5, 6)
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of injury,
turn unit off and disconnect machine from
power source before installing and removing
accessories, before adjusting or changing
set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure the
trigger switch is in the OFF position. An
accidental start-up can cause injury.
The fence (E) can be adjusted two ways: to
change desired cutting angle and to change
spacing between the fence and vise.
TO CHANGE THE DESIRED CUTTING
ANGLE
Use the wrench provided to loosen (do not
remove) the two fence bolts (P). Align the
desired angle indicator line with the slot line
(Q) in the base (D). Securely tighten both
fence bolts before use. For more accurate
square cuts, disconnect the power supply,
loosen the two fence bolts, push arm down
until wheel extends into base. Place a square
against the wheel and adjust fence against
the square. Securely tighten both fence bolts
before use. When making a miter cut, the
vise (F) may not clamp securely, depending
on the thickness of the workpiece and the
miter angle. Other aids (such as spring, bar
or C-clamps) will be necessary to secure the
workpiece to the fence when making these
cuts.
TO CHANGE SPACING BETWEEN THE FENCE AND VISE
Using the wrench provided, loosen and remove the two fence bolts (P). Adjust the fence
(E) to desired locations. Insert both fence bolts in provided locations. Securely tighten both
fence bolts before use.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF WHEELS (FIG. 7, 8)
CAUTION:
Turn off and unplug the tool
before making any adjustments or removing
or installing attachments or accessories. Be
sure the trigger switch is in the OFF
position. Do not make any adjustment while
the wheel is in motion.
Do not make any adjustment while chop saw is
plugged into power supply.
1. Push in wheel lock lever (L) and rotate
wheel (J) by hand until wheel lock lever
engages slot in inside flange (R) to lock
wheel. Loosen the bolt (S) counterclockwise
in the center of the abrasive wheel with the
included flat wrench (G). Bolt has right-hand
thread.
2. Remove the bolt (S), washer (T), outside
flange (U) and old wheel (J).

3. Make sure flange surfaces are clean and
flat. Install the new abrasive wheel by
reversing the above steps.
4. Do not overtighten bolt.
WARNING:
Risk of personal injury.
Check the work surface that the chop saw
rests on when replacing with a new abrasive
wheel. It is possible that the wheel may
contact ANY ITEMS OR STRUCTURE THAT
EXTENDS ABOVE work surface (under the
base) when the arm is fully lowered.
OPERATION TIPS FOR MORE ACCURATE CUTS
• Allow the wheel to do the cutting. Excessive force will cause the wheel to glaze reducing
cutting efficiency and/or to deflect causing inaccurate cuts.
• Properly adjust fence angle.
• Make sure material is laying flat across base.
• Properly clamp material to avoid movement and vibration.
MAINTENANCE
MOTOR BRUSH INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT (FIG. 9)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect machine
from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or
changing set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF
position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Brushes should be regularly
inspected for wear. To inspect
brushes, remove brush cap (W).
Brushes (V) should slide freely in
brush box. If brushes are worn
down to .3 inch (8mm) as
shown in Figure 9 they should be
replaced. To reinstall, push new
brush back into brush
box. If replacing existing brush,
maintain same orientation as
when removed. Replace the
brush cap (do not overtighten).
CLEANING
WARNING:
Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing with dry air as often as dirt
is seen collecting in and around the air vents. Wear ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
approved eye protection when performing this procedure.
CAUTION:
When cleaning, use only mild soap and a damp cloth on plastic parts.
Many household cleaners contain chemicals which could seriously damage plastic. Also,
do not use gasoline, turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry cleaning fluids or similar
products which may seriously damage plastic parts. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
REPAIRS
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment
should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations,
always using identical replacement parts.
LUBRICATION
Closed-type, grease-sealed ball bearings are used throughout. These bearings have
sufficient lubrication packed in them at the factory to last the life of the chop saw.
