ASSEMBLY

DUST GUIDE

See Figure 10.

nRemove the battery pack from the tool.

nPlace the dust guide (end marked INSERT) over the exhaust port in the upper blade guard. Turn the guide so the open end is facing down or towards the rear of the saw.

DUST BAG

See Figure 11.

Remove the battery pack from the tool. A dust bag is provided for use on this miter saw. It fits over the dust guide on the upper blade guard. To install, squeeze the two metal clips to open the mouth of the bag and slide it on to the dust guide. Release the clips. The metal ring in the bag should lock in between the grooves on the dust guide.

To remove the dust bag for emptying, simply reverse the above procedure.

WORK CLAMP

See Figure 12.

WARNING:

In some operations, the work clamp assembly may in- terfere with the operation of the blade guard assembly. Always make sure there is no interference with the blade guard prior to beginning any cutting operation to reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

The work clamp provides greater control by clamping the workpiece to the fence or the saw table. It also prevents the workpiece from creeping toward the blade. This is very helpful when cutting compound miters.

Depending on the cutting operation and the size of the workpiece, it may be necessary to use a C-clamp instead of the work clamp to secure the workpiece prior to making the cut.

To install the work clamp:

nPlace the shaft of the work clamp in either hole on the saw table base.

nRotate the knob on the work clamp to move it in or out as needed.

WARNING:

When using any clamp with a 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 blade and workpiece kicking up. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
