ASSEMBLY

WARNING:

Before connecting saw to power source, make sure the saw blade or blade guard will not hit the table extensions or work clamp when cutting 35° to 45° angles.

WORK CLAMP (Optional)

Whether using a C-Clamp or the optional work clamp, part number 982021-001, available for your saw, they provide a means of clamping the work to the fence or table. Clamp- ing secures the work and prevents the workpiece from creeping toward the saw blade. This is very helpful when cutting miters.

WARNING:

When using any clamp with the stop block, install the clamp on the same side as the stop block. This will eliminate the possibility of trapping the workpiece, resulting in the saw blade and workpiece kicking up. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.

ADJUSTMENTS

Your Ryobi miter saw has been adjusted at the factory for making very accurate cuts. However, some of the compo- nents might have been jarred out of alignment during ship- ping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment will probably become necessary due to wear. After unpacking your saw, check the following adjustments before you begin using saw. Make any readjustments that are necessary and peri- odically check the parts alignment to make sure that your saw is cutting accurately.

WARNING:

Your saw should never be connected to power supply when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, installing or removing blades, or when not in use. Discon- necting your saw will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious injury.

NOTE: Many of the illustrations in this manual show only portions of your miter saw. This is intentional so that we can clearly show points being made in the illustrations. Never operate your saw without all guards securely in place and in good operating condition.

PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS

NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and normally do not require readjustment.

TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT

The saw arm should rise completely to the up position by itself.

If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play in the pivot joints, have saw repaired at your nearest RYOBI

AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
