INTENDED USE
This miter saw is intended for use by construction professionals for cutting lumber, trim
molding and shapes, and other soft materials.
DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
This miter saw is a professional power tool. DO NOT let children come into contact with the
tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this tool.
Transporting and Storing the Saw (Fig. 4)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove
the battery packs or power supply before transporting, making any adjustments,
cleaning, repairing, or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, ALWAYS lock the miter
lock lever (F), bevel lock knob (W), lock down pin (Q) and fence adjustment knobs (Y) before
transporting saw.
In order to conveniently carry the miter saw from place to place, a lifting handle (R) has been
included on the top of the saw arm and hand indentations (M) in the base, as shown in Figure 4.
HEAD LOCK DOWN PIN (FIG. 4)
WARNING: The lock down pin should be used ONLY when carrying or storing the
saw. NEVER use the lock down pin for any cutting operation.
To lock the saw head in the down position, push the head down, push the lock down pin (Q)
in and release the saw head. This will hold the saw head safely down for moving the saw from
place to place. To release, press the saw head down and pull the pin out.

FEATURES AND CONTROLS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove
the battery packs or power supply before transporting, making any adjustments,
cleaning, repairing, or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
USE OF CUTLINE™ LED WORKLIGHT (FIG. 4)
CAUTION: Do not stare into worklight. Serious eye injury could result.
The CUTLINE™ LED worklight can be turned on by the CUTLINE™ worklight switch (S).
The light will automatically turn off within 20 seconds if the saw is not in use. The light is also
activated automatically every time the tool's main trigger (B) is pulled.
To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood, turn on the CUTLINE™ worklight
using the CUTLINE™ worklight switch (S) (not with the main trigger), then pull down on the
operating handle (A) to bring the saw blade close to the wood. The shadow of the blade will
appear on the wood. This shadow line represents the material that the blade will remove
when performing a cut. To correctly locate your cut to the pencil line, align the pencil line with
the edge of the blade's shadow. Keep in mind that you may have to adjust the miter or bevel
angles in order to match the pencil line exactly.
Your saw is equipped with a battery monitoring feature. The CUTLINE™ worklight begins
to flash when the battery is near the end of its useful charge and/or when the battery is too
hot. Charge the battery prior to continuing cutting applications. Refer to Charging a Battery
under Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers for battery charging
instructions.
MITER CONTROL (FIG. 4, 6)
The miter lock lever (F) and miter release lever (G)
allow you to miter your saw 50° left and right. To
miter the saw, unlock the miter lock lever (F) by
pulling upward, squeeze the miter release lever (G)
and set the miter angle desired on the miter scale.
Lock miter lock lever (F) by pressing downward.
To override the detents, unlock the miter lock lever
(F) by pulling upward. Pull up on the miter release
lever (G) then push the miter detent override
lever (H) upward. Set the miter angle desired on
the miter scale. Lock the miter lock lever (F) be
pressing downward.
VERNIER SCALE (FIG. 7, 8)
Your saw is equipped with a vernier scale for added precision. The vernier scale allows you
to accurately set miter angles to the nearest 1/4°. To use the vernier scale follow the steps
listed below.
(As an example, let's assume that the angle you want to miter is 9-1/4° right).
1. Turn off miter saw.
2. Set the miter angle to the nearest whole degree desired by aligning the center mark in the
vernier scale, shown in Figure 7, with the whole degree number etched in the miter scale.
Examine Figure 7 closely; the setting shown is 9° right miter.

3. To set the additional 1/4°, squeeze the miter arm lock and carefully move the arm to the
RIGHT until the 1/4° vernier mark aligns with the CLOSEST degree mark on the miter
scale. In our example, the closest degree mark on the miter scale happens to be 10°.
Figure 8 shows a setting of 9-1/4° right miter.
For settings that require partial degrees (1/4, 1/2, 3/4°) align the desired vernier mark with
the CLOSEST degree mark on the miter scale, as described below (The plastic vernier plate
is inscribed with marks for 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and 1°. Only the 1/2° and the 1° are numerically
labeled.)
