ASSEMBLY

WARNING:

Make sure the spindle lock button is not engaged before reconnecting saw into power source. Never engage spindle lock button when blade is rotating.

NOTE: Many of the illustrations in this manual show only portions of the compound miter saw. This is intentional so that we can clearly show points being made in the illustrations.

Never operate the saw without all guards securely in place and in good operating condition.

SQUARING THE MITER TABLE TO THE FENCE

See Figures 17 - 20.

nRemove the battery pack from the tool.

nPush down on the saw arm and pull out the lock pin to release the saw arm.

nRaise saw arm to its full raised position.

nLift the miter table clamp.

nRotate the miter table until the pointer is positioned at 0°.

nPush the miter table clamp back down.

nLay a framing square flat on the miter table. Place one leg of the square against the fence. Place the other leg of the square beside the zero clearance throat plate in the miter table. The edge of the square and the zero clear- ance throat plate in the miter table should be parallel as shown in figure 17.

nIf the edge of the framing square and the zero clearance throat plate in the miter table are not parallel as shown in figures 18 and 19, adjustments are needed.

nUsing the 6 mm hex key, loosen the socket head screws securing the fence. See Figure 20. Adjust the fence left or right until the framing square and throat plate are parallel.

nRetighten the screws securely and recheck the fence-to- table alignment.
