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 a 3-pole
recept acle which will accept the tool s plug. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current of the saw . An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line volt age resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Fig. 12, shows the correct gage to use de-
pending on cord length and volt age. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

FASTENING MACHINE TO SUPPORTING SURFA C E
Before operating your compound miter saw, make sure it is firmly mounted to a workbench or
other supporting surface. Four holes (A) Fig. 1 1, are provided for fastening the saw to a support -
ing surface.
When frequently moving the saw from place to place, we suggest that the saw be mounted to a
3/4 piece of plywood. The saw can then be easily moved from place to place and the plywood
clamped to the supporting surface using C clamp s.
