Getting to Know Your Miter Saw
1. Warning label (Also on Cord) - Do not remove label.
2. On-Off Trigger Switch - To prevent the trigger from
being accidentally engaged, a lock-off button is pro-
vided. To start the tool, push the lock-off button
downward and squeeze the trigger. Release the trig-
ger to stop the miter saw.
3. Miter Saw Switch Handle - The saw handle con-
tains the switch trigger with a lock-off button. The
blade is lowered into the workpiece by pushing down
on the handle. The saw will return to its upright posi-
tion when the handle is released.
4. Miter Saw Carry Handle - After locking the power
head in the lowered position with the stop shaft, the
saw is conveniently carried using this handle.

ened, the cover plate can be rotated to the rear,
allowing for blade removal/replacement.

plied) can be attached to prevent unauthorized use.
8. Arbor Lock - Allows the user to keep the blade from
rotating while tightening or loosening the arbor screw
during blade replacement or removal.
