EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D, shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

It can crosscut up to 5-5/8" x 2-3/4", miter at 45° both left and right 4" x 2-3/4", bevel at 45° left 1-5/8" x 5-5/8", and compound 45° x 45°, 4" x 1-5/8". It has Patented trigger-controlled indexing with positive miter stops at 0°, 15.5°, 22.5°, 30°, and 45° both left and right, and bevel stops at 0° and 45° left.
UNPACKING AND CLEANING
Carefully unpack the machine and all loose items from the shipping container(s). Remove the protective coating from all unpainted surfaces. This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene (do not use acetone, gaso- line or lacquer thinner for this purpose). After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality household floor paste wax.
