Electrical Requirements

1.Connect this saw to a 120V, 15-amp branch circuit with a 15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using the wrong size fuse can damage the motor.

2.Fuses may “blow” or circuit breakers may trip frequently if

motor is overloaded. Overloading can occur if you feed the blade into the workpiece too rapidly or start and stop too often in a short time.

3.Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect connections, overload, low voltage (such as small size wire in the supply circuit or to overly long supply circuit wire). Always check the connections, the load and the supply circuit whenever motor does not work well.

Electric Brake

Your saw is equipped with an automatic electric brake which is designed to stop the blade from spinning in about ten (10) seconds after you release the trigger switch. It is useful when making certain cuts in wood where a coasting blade would result in a wide, imprecise cut.

! WARNING

When electrical power is lost due to blown

fuse or other causes, the motor will

 

gradually slow down and the braking action is initiated ONLY by the release of the trigger switch.

The electric blade brake of your miter saw has been designed for highest degree of reliability, but unexpected circumstances such as contamination on the commutator and brushes or failure of motor’s components can cause the brake not to activate. If this condition occurs, turn the saw “ON” and “OFF” four to five times without contacting the workpiece. If the tool operates but the brake does not consistently stop the blade in about ten (10) seconds, DO NOT use saw and have it serviced immediately.

!The brake action of this saw is not WARNING intended as a safety feature. Remember

to let the saw blade come to a complete stop before removing from the workpiece. As always the guard system is your best protection against unintentional contact with a spinning saw blade. NEVER wedge open or defeat the closing action of the lower guard.

Laser Warnings

!DANGER LASER RADIATION. AVOID DIRECTEYE EXPOSURE. DO NOT stare into

the laser light source. Never aim light at another person or object other than the workpiece. Laser light can

!WARNING DO NOT use tinted glasses to enhancethe laser light. Tinted glasses will reduce

overall vision for the application and interfere with the normal operation of the tool.

!Never aim the beam at a workpiece WARNING with a reflective surface. Bright shiny

reflective sheet steel or similar reflective surfaces are not recommended for laser use. Reflective surfaces could direct the beam back toward the operator.

!Use of controls or adjustments or CAUTION performance of procedures other than

those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

!The use of optical instruments with this WARNING product will increase eye hazards.

The laser light guide is a class IIIA laser with a maximum output power of 5.0 mWatts and conforms to 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
