SAFETY GUIDELINES

Keep guards in place and in working order.

Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.

Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.

Don’t use in dangerous environment. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain or snow. Keep work area well lighted.

Keep children away. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance from work area.

Make workshop childproof with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.

Don’t force the tool. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Use the right tool. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewellery which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

Always use safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact-resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.

Secure work. Use clamps or vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.

Don’t overeach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

Disconnect tools before servicing; when changing accessories, such as blades, clamps, extensions, and the like.

Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging in.

Use recommended accessories. Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of injury, read the instruction manual.

WARNING!

Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions listed below may result in electrical shock, fire and/or serious injury.

6

model no. 055-6751-6 | contact us 1-800-689-9928

Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if something unintentionally comes into contact with the cutting tool.

Check damaged parts. before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine whether it will operate properly and perform its intended function

- check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.

Direction of feed. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.

Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.

Polarized Plugs: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, double-insulated tools are

equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).

This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit into the outlet properly, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Double insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded

power cord and grounded power supply system. This compound mitre saw is a double-insulated tool.

Before plugging in the tool, BE SURE that the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage

marked on the tool’s data plate. DO NOT use “AC only” rated tools with a DC power supply.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-

tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions and do not use power tools in wet

or damp locations. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. This tool is intended for indoor use only.

If operating a power tool in damp locations is unavoidable, ALWAYS USE a power supply for

your tool that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter. ALWAYS WEAR electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear in damp conditions.

Inspect tool cords for damage. Have damaged tool cords repaired by a qualified person. bE

SURE to stay constantly aware of the cord location, and keep it well away from the moving blade.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

Use proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.

If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR LASERS

The mitre saw has a built-in laser light. The laser is class IIIa. These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard. However, DO NOT stare at the beam, as this can cause flash blindness.

• Do not remove or deface any product labels. Removing product labels increases the risk of exposure to laser radiation.

• The laser beam can be harmful to the eyes. Always avoid direct eye exposure. Do not project the laser beam directly into the eyes of others or at any object other than the workpiece.

• Do not look directly into the laser-beam-output aperture during operation.

• Turn the laser on only when making cuts. The laser on the mitre saw is not a toy. Always keep it out of the reach of children. The laser light emitted from this device should never be directed toward any person for any reason.

• Always turn the laser beam off when it is not in use. Leaving the tool on increases the risk of someone inadvertently staring into the laser’s beam.

• Be sure that the laser beam is aimed at a workpiece (such as wood or a rough-coated surface) that does not have a reflective surface.

• Do not use on materials that have shiny, reflective surfaces, such as sheet metal. The reflective surface could reflect the beam back at the operator. Be aware that laser light reflected off of a mirror or any other reflective surfaces can also be dangerous.

• Always wear laser-protective eyewear when working on or near reflective surfaces.

• Do not attempt to activate the laser when the tool housing is removed.

• The laser is activated by means of a button switch that is independent of the main switch for the saw.

• Do not replace the laser light assembly with a different one. Any repairs must be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorized service agent.

• Do not attempt to repair the laser guide by yourself.

• Do not attempt to change any parts of the laser guide.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR MITRE SAWS

Always wear eye protection.

Do not operate the saw without guards in place.

Be sure to turn the tool off and wait for the saw blade to stop before moving the workpiece or changing settings.

Be sure that the power is disconnected before changing the blade or servicing the saw.

Do not expose to rain or use in a damp location.

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.

Never reach around the saw blade.

Do not perform any operation freehand. Always place the workpiece to be cut on the mitre saw table and position it firmly against the fence as a backstop. Always use the fence.

Always keep hands out of the path of the saw blade. Do not reach under the material being cut or into the blade’s cutting path with your fingers or hand for any reason.

To reduce the risk of injury, return the cutting head to the full rear position after each crosscut operation.

Always make sure that the mitre table and head assembly (bevel function) are locked in

position before operating your saw. Lock the mitre table by securely tightening the mitre locking handle. Lock the head assembly (bevel function) by securely tightening the bevel locking knob.

Be sure the blade path is free of nails. Always carefully inspect lumber and remove all nails bEFORE cutting.

Always be sure the blade clears the workpiece. Never start the saw with the blade touching the workpiece. Always allow the motor to come up to full speed before starting a cut.

Support long workpieces when cutting to minimize the risk of blade pinching or kickback.

The saw may slip, walk or slide while cutting long or heavy boards.

Never use a length-stop on the free end of a clamped workpiece. Never hold onto or bind the free end of the workpiece in any operation. If a clamp and length-stop are used together, they must both be installed on the same side of the saw table to prevent the saw from catching the loose end and kicking up.

Never cut more than one piece at a time. Do not stack more than one workpiece on the worktable at a time.

Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand

to hit the blade. Always make sure you have good balance. Never operate your saw on the floor or in a crouched position.

9

WARNING!

The use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSh/OShA approved respiratory protection appropriate for dust exposure. Direct particles away from the face and body.

10

model no. 055-6751-6 | contact us 1-800-689-9928

Only use the correct blades. Use the correct blade size, style and cutting speed for the material and the type of cut. Do not use blades with incorrect size holes. NEVER use blade washers or blade bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade capacity for this saw is 10” (25.4 cm).

Always keep blades clean, sharp and properly set. Sharp blades minimize stalling and kickback.

Do not use dull or damaged blades. bent blades can break easily or cause kickback.

Never hold a workpiece by hand if it is too small to be clamped. Always keep your hands clear of the “no hands” zone.

Never apply lubricants to the blade when it is running.

Never use solvents to clean plastic parts. Solvents could dissolve or otherwise damage the material.

Do not turn the motor switch on and off rapidly. This could cause the blade to loosen, which could create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow the saw blade to come to a complete stop. Disconnect the saw from the power source and tighten the blade bolt securely.

Never leave the saw unattended while it is connected to a power supply.

Keep the motor air slots clean and free of chips or dust. To avoid motor damage, the motor should be blown out or vacuumed frequently. This keeps sawdust from interfering with the motor ventilation.

Never lift this tool by gripping the switch handle or by the mitre fence. This may cause misalignment. Always lock the head assembly in the “Down” position and carry the saw by holding the base or lift it using the carrying handle/support bracket.

BENCH MOUNTING

(Fig. 14)

This tool should be bolted with four bolts to a level and stable surface using the bolt holes (1) provided in the tool’s base. This will help prevent tipping and possible injury.

INSTALLING THE WORK CLAMP

(Fig. 15)

There are two mounting holes for the work clamp. These are located just behind the fence on the left and right side of the base.

• Loosen the locking screw with a Phillips screwdriver.

• Place the work clamp in the desired mounting hole.

• Tighten the screw to hold the work clamp.

ON/OFF TRIGGER SWITCH

(Fig. 16)

To turn the saw on, depress the trigger switch. To turn the tool off, release the switch. There is no provision for locking the switch on. To lock the saw off, place a padlock in the hole provided in the trigger switch.

When the trigger switch is released, the blade will be stopped within 10 seconds.

HOW TO USE THE LASER LINE

(Fig. 17)

Your mitre saw comes with a laser guide, which can guarantee better performance.

• Use a pencil to mark a line where you want to cut the workpiece.

• Put the workpiece on the table.

• Turn on the laser switch in the switch handle and adjust the pencil line to align with the laser line.

• Clamp the workpiece with the work clamp if necessary.

WARNING!

Ensure that the tool will not move on the supporting surface. Movement of the mitre saw on the supporting surface while cutting may result in loss of control and serious personal injury.

WARNING!

• To avoid injury, after completing a cut and releasing the trigger switch, wait and confirm that the blade has stopped before raising the cutting head.

●• To avoid injury, check and tighten the blade bolt periodically.

1

Follow all of the cutting instructions for the type of cut to be performed.

DRY RUN

For safe operation, it’s necessary to know where the blade will contact the workpiece during the cutting process.

Always perform the simulated cutting process with the switch off to check and understand the projected path of the saw blade. Adjust the work clamps and fences to avoid any contact with the lower guard and cutting action.

MITRE CUT

(Fig. 18)

• When a mitre cut is required, unlock the table by turning the mitre handle (1) counterclockwise.

• While holding the mitre handle, lift up on the positive stop locking lever (2).

• Rotate the table to the right or left with the mitre handle.

• When the table is in the desired position, as shown on the mitre scale (3), release the positive stop locking lever and tighten the mitre handle. The table is now locked at the desired angle. Positive stops are provided at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45°.

BEVEL CUT

(Fig. 19)

• When a bevel cut is required, loosen the bevel lock knob (1) by turning it clockwise.

• Tilt the cutting head to the desired angle, as shown on the bevel scale (2).

• The blade can be positioned at any angle, from a

90° straight cut (0° on the scale) to a 45° left bevel.

Tighten the bevel lock knob to lock the cutting head in position. Positive stops are provided at 0° and 45°.

COMPOUND CUT

(Fig. 20)

A compound cut is the combination of a mitre and a bevel cut simultaneously.

IMPORTANT:

Always tighten the mitre table lock handle before performing every cutting operation.

• Loosen the bevel lock knob (1) and position the cutting head at the desired bevel position. Lock the bevel lock knob.

• Loosen the mitre handle (2). Lift up the positive stop locking lever (3) and position the table at the desired angle. Release the positive stop locking lever and lock the mitre handle.

SLIDING CARRIAGE SYSTEM

(Fig. 21)

• For chop cutting operations on small workpieces, slide the cutting head completely toward the rear of the unit and tighten the carriage lock knob (1).

• To cut wide boards up to 12” (30.5 cm), the carriage lock knob must be loosened to allow the cutting head to slide freely.

SLIDE CUTTING WIDE BOARDS UP TO

12” (30.5 cm) WIDE

To avoid injury:

• Let the blade reach full speed before cutting. This will help reduce the risk of a thrown workpiece.

• Do not make crosscuts by lowering the blade and pulling the cutting head through the wood toward you.

To Slide Cut Wide Boards

(Fig. 22)

• Unlock the carriage lock knob (1) and allow the cutting head assembly to move freely.

• Set both the desired bevel angle and/or the mitre angle and lock into position.

• Use a work clamp (2) to secure the workpiece (3).

• Grasp and pull the switch handle (4) forward until the centre of the saw blade is over the front of the workpiece.

CAUTION!

To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the full rear position after each crosscut operation.

CAUTION!

Always use a work clamp to maintain control and reduce the risk of workpiece damage and personal injury.

• Engage the trigger to turn the saw on.

• When the saw reaches full speed, slowly push the switch handle down, cutting through the leading edge of the workpiece.

• Slowly move the switch handle toward the fence, completing the cut.

• Release the trigger and allow the blade to stop spinning before raising the cutting head and removing the workpiece.

SETTING CUTTING DEPTH

(Fig. 23)

3

The depth of cut can be preset for even and repetitive shallow cuts.

• Slide the stop plate (1) towards the front position.

• Loosen the lock nut (2) to free the lock knob (3), turn the stop knob until the cutting head down until the teeth of the blade are at the desired depth.

• While holding the upper arm in that position, tighten the lock nut to secured the stop knob.

• Recheck the blade depth by moving the cutting head front to back through the full motion of typical cut along the control arm.

1

2

CUTTING GROOVES

(Fig. 24)

• Mark lines to identify the width and depth of the desired cut on the workpiece and put the workpiece on the table and aim the inside tip of the blade at the line. Use a work clamp to secure the workpiece on the table.

• Lower the cutting head so the tip of the blade touches the top surface of the workpiece at the marked line.

• While holding the upper arm in position, loosen the lock nut and turn the stop knob until it touches the stop plate, then retighten the lock nut.

(SEE “SETTING CUTTING DEPTH”)

NOTE:

Always perform a dry run cut so you can determine if the operation being attempted is possible before power is applied to the saw.

25

WARNING!

DO NOT USE A DADO bLADE, use only the standard saw blade for this operation.

26

model no. 055-6751-6 | contact us 1-800-689-9928

• Cut two parallel grooves as shown.

• Use a wood chisel or make multiple passes with a router to remove the material between the two outside grooves to create the groove.

CUTTING WARPED MATERIAL

(Fig. 25)

When cutting warped material, be sure that the convex side is against the fence. If the workpiece is placed with the concave side facing the fence, it will pinch the blade near the completion of the cutting.

AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE

(Fig. 26)

When making multiple or repetitive cuts that result in cutoff pieces of 1” (2.5 cm) or less, it is possible for the saw blade to catch the cut-off piece and throw it out of the saw or into the blade guard and housing, possibly causing damage or injury. To minimize this, an auxiliary wood fence can be mounted to your saw. holes are provided in the saw fence to attach an auxiliary wood fence (this provides additional depth of cut). This fence should be constructed of straight auxiliary wood approximately 3/4” (1.9 cm) thick by 2” (5.1 cm) high by 19” (48.3 cm) long. Attach the wood fence securely and make a full depth cut to make a blade slot. Check for interference between the wood fence and the lower blade guard. Adjust if necessary.

CUTTING BASE MOULDING

(Fig. 27) base mouldings and many other mouldings can be cut on a compound mitre saw. The setup of the saw depends on moulding characteristics and applications, as shown.

Perform practice cuts on scrap material to achieve best results:

• Always make sure mouldings rest firmly against the fence and table. Use hold-down or C-clamps, whenever possible, and place tape on the area being clamped to avoid marks.

NOTE:

Always perform a dry run cut so you can determine if the operation being attempted is possible before power is applied to the saw.

• Reduce splintering by taping the cut area prior to making cut. Mark cut line directly on the tape.

• Splintering typically happens due to wrong blade application and thinness of the material.

Mitre saw table Mitre saw table

Your compound mitre saw is suited for the difficult task of cutting crown moulding. To fit properly, crown moulding must be compound-mitreed with extreme accuracy. The two surfaces on a piece of crown moulding that fit flat against the ceiling and wall are at angles that, when added together, equal exactly 90°.

Most crown moulding has a top rear angle (the section that fits flat against the ceiling) of 52° and a bottom rear angle

(the section that fits flat against the wall) of 38°.

SAWDUST

Periodically, sawdust will accumulate under the table and base. This could cause difficulty in the movement of the table when setting up a mitre cut. Frequently blow out or vacuum up the sawdust.

LOWER BLADE GUARD

Do not use the saw without the lower blade guard.

The lower blade guard is attached to the saw for your protection. Should the lower guard become damaged, do not use the saw until the damaged guard has been replaced. Check regularly to make sure the lower guard is working properly. Clean the lower guard of any dust or buildup with a damp cloth.

REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES

(Fig. 30)

Replace both carbon brushes when either has less than

1/4” (0.6 cm) length of carbon remaining, or if the spring or wire is damaged or burned. To inspect or replace brushes, first unplug the saw. Remove the two screws on the back cover of the motor and take the cover off. Move the coil spring which press on the carbon brush to other side to free the carbon brush. Pull out the brush and the wire which connect to the holder. Replace it for a new carbon brush. When replace for the other side. To reassemble, reverse the procedure. Tighten two screws on the back cover.

This will avoid a break-in period that reduces motor performance and increases wear.

NOTE:

To reinstall the same brushes, first make sure the brushes go back in the way they came out.

31

CAUTION!

If blowing sawdust, wear proper eye protection to keep debris from blowing into eyes.

CAUTION!

• Do not use solvents on the guard. They could make the plastic cloudy and brittle.

• When cleaning the lower guard, unplug the saw to avoid unexpected start-up.

WARNING!

• To avoid fire or toxic reaction, never use gasoline, naphtha acetone, lacquer thinner or similar highly volatile solvents to clean the mitre saw.

• To avoid injury from unexpected starting or electrical shock, unplug the power cord before working on the saw.

• For your safety, this saw is double-insulated. To avoid electrical shock, fire or injury, use only parts identical to those identified in the parts list. Reassemble exactly to avoid electrical shock.
