UNPACKING AND CHECKING CONTENTS

Your Model TS230 Compound Miter Saw has been shipped completely assembled except for the blade, miter lock handle, work clamp, and dust guide.

Remove all loose parts from the carton. Separate and check with the list of Loose Parts. See Figure 1.

Remove the packing materials from around your saw.

Carefully lift saw from the carton and place it on a level work surface. Although small, this saw is heavy. To avoid back injury, get help when needed.

Do not discard the packing materials until you have carefully inspected the saw, identified all loose parts, and satisfactorily operated your new saw.

Your saw has been shipped with the saw arm locked in the down position. To release saw arm, push down on top of saw arm and pull out the lock pin. See Figure 3.

Lift the saw arm by the handle. Hand pressure should remain on the saw arm to prevent sudden rise upon release of the lock pin.

Examine all parts to make sure no breakage or damage has occurred during shipping.

If any parts are damaged or missing, do not attempt to plug in the power cord and turn the switch on until the damaged or missing parts are obtained and are installed correctly. Contact your nearest Ryobi dealer or call 1-800-525-2579 in the United States or 1-800-265-6778 in Canada for assistance if any parts are missing or damaged.
