General power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety a. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. 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 or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
(original instructions) English
3. Personal safety a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4. Power tool use and care a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
7
English (original instructions) d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Instructions for Mitre Saws
a. Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and other plastic parts.
b. Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand, you must always keep your hand at least 100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to be securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is placed too close to the saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from blade contact.
c. The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or held against both the fence and the table. Do not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand” in any way. Unrestrained or moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
d. Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the saw through the workpiece. To make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over the workpiece without cutting, start the motor, press
8 the saw head down and push the saw through the workpiece.
Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece and violently throw the blade assembly towards the operator.
e. Never cross your hand over the intended line of cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece “cross handed” i.e. holding the workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
f. Do not reach behind the fence with either hand closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be obvious and you may be seriously injured.
g. Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain that there is no gap between the workpiece, fence and table along the line of the cut.
Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
h. Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the workpiece.
Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
i. Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
j. Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a level, firm work surface before use. A level and firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw becoming unstable.
k. Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable fence is set correctly to support the workpiece and will not interfere with the blade or the guarding system.
Without turning the tool “ON” and with no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade through a complete simulated cut to assure there will be no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
l. Provide adequate support such as table extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
m. Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension or as additional support. Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to shift during the cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.
n. The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any means against the spinning saw blade.
If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade and thrown violently.
o. Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support round material such as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to “bite” and pull the work with your hand into the blade.
p. Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
q. If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed material. Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
r. After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw head down and wait for the blade to stop before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade is dangerous.
s. Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut or when releasing the switch before the saw head is completely in the down position. The braking action of the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.
Additional Safety Warnings for Mitre Saws
● Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Do not use cracked, bent, damaged or deformed saw blades.
● Replace the table insert when worn.
● Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the technical data. Use only the blades specified in this manual, complying with EN 847-1.
● Do not use High Speed Steel (HSS) saw blades.
● Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough material (saw blades should be carried in a holder when practicable).
● Use the dustbag provided when sawing wood.
● Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
(original instructions) English
● Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
@
Warning!
Contact with or inhalation of dusts arising from sanding applications may endanger the health of the operator and possible bystanders. Wear a dust mask specifically designed for protection against dust and fumes and ensure that persons within or entering the work area are also protected.
● Consider using specially designed noise-reduction blades.
● Select the correct blade for the material to be cut.
● This mitre saw has been designed for sawing wood, plastic and non-ferrous metal only.
● Do not operate the machine without the guard in position.
Do not operate the machine if the guard does not function or is not maintained properly.
● Ensure that the arm is securely fixed when performing bevel cuts.
● Before each cut ensure that the machine is stable.
● Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
● Keep the surrounding area of the machine well maintained and free of loose materials, e.g. chips and off-cuts.
● Ensure the machine and the work area are provided with adequate general or localised lighting.
● Do not allow untrained people to operate this machine.
● Ensure that the blade is mounted correctly before use.
Make sure that the blade rotates in the correct direction.
Keep the blade sharp.
● Ensure the speed marked on the saw blade is at least equal to the speed marked on the saw.
● The laser fitted must never be exchanged with a different type of laser. Repairs to the laser should be carried out by authorised repair agents or Stanley Fat Max service staff.
● Disconnect the machine form the mains before carrying out any maintenance or when changing the blade.
● Never perform any cleaning, maintenance, removal of any off-cuts or other parts of the work piece form the cutting area when the machine is running and the saw head is not in the rest position.
● When possible, always mount the machine to a bench.
● Secure the workpiece. A workpiece held with a clamping device or a vice is more secure than when held with the hand.
● Always firmly clamp the piece to be worked. Do not work with pieces that are too small to clamp, otherwise, the distance of the hands to the rotating saw blade is too small. Always use extra support when sawing long workpieces.
● Make sure all locking knobs and handles are tight before starting any operation.
● Never use your saw without the table insert.
● Never place either hand in the blade area when the saw is connected to the mains supply.
9
English (original instructions)
● Never attempt to stop the machine in motion rapidly by jamming a tool or other means against the blade; serious accidents can be caused unintentionally in this way.
● Before using or fitting any accessory consult the instruction manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause damage.
● Do not use any abrasive discs.
● Raise the blade from the table insert in the workpiece prior to releasing the on/of switch.
● Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the motor shaft.
● The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise when the arm is brought down; it will lower over the blade when the arm is raised. The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the saw. Never raise the blade guard manually unless the machine is switched off.
● Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean and free of chips.
● Do not work with material containing asbestos. Asbestos is considered to be carcinogenic.
● Never make the warning signs on the power tool unrecognisable.
● Never stand on the power tool. Serious injuries could occur when the power tool tips over or when coming in contact with the saw blade.
● Do not take hold of the saw blade after working before it has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working.
● Advance the saw blade against the workpiece only when it is switched on. Otherwise, the danger of kick-back exists when the saw blade catches in the workpiece.
● The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance of any operation with this tool other than those recommended in this instruction manual may present a risk of personal injury and/or damage to property.
● Never place hands near cutting area. Keep hands outside the “No Hands Zone” which includes entire table and is labelled by “No Hands” symbols.
● To avoid injury from materials being thrown, unplug the saw to avoid accidental starting, and then remove small materials.
● Before use and after any maintenance the blade guard must be checked to ensure proper function. This test must be performed with the saw switched off and unplugged.
The arm must be raised and lowered to ensure the guard covers the blade and the blade does not contact the guard. If the guard fails to operate correctly, have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair agent.
Call Stanley Fat Max customer services for you nearest service agent.

Crown moulding cut (fig. L)
Crown moulding can only be cut flat on the table with this mitre saw.
● This mitre saw has special mitre stops on 31.6° left and right and a bevel stop of 33.9° for special crown moulding, i.e. 52° between the back of the moulding and the top flat surface that fits against the ceiling; 38° between the back of the moulding and the bottom flat surface that fits against the wall.
● Refer to the following table to make this crown moulding cut:

Note: These special stops can not be used with 45° crown moulding.
Note: Since most rooms do not have angles of exactly 90°, fine tuning is needed, always make a test cut to confirm the correct angles.
Setting the cutting depth (fig. M)
The depth of cut can be preset for even and repetitive shallow cuts.
● Adjust the cutting head down until the teeth of the blade are at the required depth of cut.
● While holding the upper arm in position, turn the stop knob (47) until it touches the stop plate (49).
● Check the blade depth by moving the cutting head front to back through the full motion of a typical cut along the control arm.
Carrying the tool (fig. ,B, J, H, N)
● Loosen the mitre detent lever (11) (fig. B) and turn the table all the way to the right. Lock the table at the 45° mitre angle.
● Pull the cutting head to the front of the saw and lock the carriage with the lock knob (48) (fig. J).
● Lower the cutting head and push in the lock pin (46)
(fig. H).
● Carry the mitre saw with the front and the rear carrying handles (24, 27).
@ Warning!
Do not carry the machine by the guard.

Your mitre saw has been supplied with a negative rake saw blade. It is advisable to use a negative rake saw blade.
● TCG type - For cutting aluminium sheets, tubing extrusions and other non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass.
● ATB type - For general cutting and trimming of wood, plywood, and sizing pressboard, hardboard, and particle board, when a neat cut is needed.
Always use a negative rake blade when cutting nonferrous metals.
@ Warning!
Do not use any blade that requires a spacer or spindle ring to fit. Only use blades as specified in this manual.
Changing blades (fig. O - Q)
@ Warning!
To avoid injury from accidental starting, always remove the power plug from the power source before changing the blades.
Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the maximum speed and tooth type marked on the saw blade. Only use STANLEY FATMAX recommended blades.
To replace the saw blade (34), proceed as follows:
● Press the saw arm release lever (36) and rotate the moveable lower guard counter clockwise and clear of the blade. Use one hand to hold the guard in place (fig. O).
● Using a screwdriver, loosen but do not remove the screw (50). Do not remove the screw completely as this will make re-assembly difficult.
● Using a screwdriver, loosen but do not remove the screw (51) until there is movement in the metal guard plate. Do not remove the screw completely as this will make re-assembly difficult.
● Move the metal upper guard plate counter clockwise
(fig. P). This will give you access to the spindle bolt (52) that attaches the saw blade (34) to the mitre saw.
14
● Press and hold the spindle lock button (35) on the motor housing, to lock the saw blade (34) and prevent it from rotating.
● Using the supplied blade spanner, turn the spindle bolt (52) in a clockwise direction to remove the bolt and the saw blade (34).
● Fit a replacement blade, make sure that the teeth are pointing downward and the direction marking on the blade is the same as that on the mitre saws guard (clockwise)
(fig. P).
● Loosely fit the spindle bolt (52) by hand (turn counter clockwise).
● Press and hold the spindle lock button (35) and use the blade spanner to tighten the spindle bolt (52) until the blade is secure.
● Replace the metal upper guard (26) into its original position and tighten the two screws (50 and 51).
● Allow the moveable lower guard (5) to return to its original position covering the blade.
@ Warning!
Never press the spindle lock while the blade is rotating. Be sure to hold the guard bracket down and firmly tighten the guard bracket screw after installing the blade.
@ Warning!
The guard bracket must be returned to its original position and the screw tightened before activating the saw. Failure to do so may allow the guard to contact the spinning saw blade resulting in damage to the saw and severe personal injury.
