Also, when a new blade is installed, it is necessary to check the clearance of the blade to the miter table support before starting the saw. Make adjustments if needed. DEPTH STOP ADJUSTMENTS See Figure 25. • Unplug your saw. A WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. To adjust the depth stop use a 17 mm wrench or adjustable wrench and loosen the hex nut at the rear of the miter saw arm. Use the 5 mm hex key provided to adjust the depth stop adjustment screw. The saw blade is lowered by turning the screw counter-clockwise and raised by turning the screw clockwise. / DEPTHSTOP ADJUSTMENT SCREW "'_ HEXNUT BEVEL LOCK KNOB MITER TABLE Fig. 25 19 Lowerthebladeinto the zero clearance throat plate of the miter table. Check blade clearance and maximum cuffing distance (distance from fence where blade enters) to front of miter table slot. • Re-adjust if necessary. _k WARNING: Do not start your compound miter saw without checking for interference between the blade and the miter table support. Damage could result to the blade if it strikes the miter table support during operation of the saw. APPLICATIONS (Use only for the purposes listed below) • Cross cutting wood and plastic. • Cross cutting miters, joints, etc. for picture frames, moldings, door casings, and fine joinery. Note: The 100 tooth crosscut blade provided is fine for most wood cuffing operations. For fine joinery cuts or cuffing plastic, use one of the accessory blades available from your nearest Sears store. _, WARNING: Before starting any cuffing operation, clamp or bolt your compound miter saw to a workbench. Never operate your miter saw on the floor or in a crouched position. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury. CUTTING WITH YOUR COMPOUND MITER SAW _1, WARNING: When using a work clamp or C-clamp to secure your workpiece, clamp workpiece on one side of the blade only. The workpiece must remain free on one side of the blade to prevent the blade from binding in workpiece. The workpiece binding the blade will cause motor stalling and kickback. This situation could cause an accident resulting in possible serious personal injury. • Tighten the hex nut with a 17 mm wrench or adjustable wrench. • To prevent the depth stop adjustment screw from turning while tightening the hex nut, carefully hold it with the hex key while tightening the hex nut. CROSSCUTTING See Figure 26. A crosscut is made by cutting across the grain of the workpiece. A 90" crosscut is made with the miter table set at the zero degree position, Miter crosscuts are made with the miter table set at some angle other than zero. TO CROSSCUT WITH YOUR MITER SAW: • Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full height. • Uft the miter table clamp. • Rotate the miter table untilthe pointer aligns with the desired angle on the miter scale. • Push the miter table clamp back down, Note: You can quickly locate 0°, 22-1/2 ° left or right, and 45° left or right on the scale. The miter table can be seated in one of the positive stop notches, located in the miter table frame. WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, always push the miter table clamp back down before making a cut. Failure to do so could result in movement of the miter table while making a cut. 2O 0o CROSSCUT Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece. See Figure 26. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece. Wait until the electric brake stops blade from turning before removing the workpiece from the miter table. BEVEL CUT See Figures 27 and 28. A bevel cut is made by cuffing across the grain of the workpiece with the blade angled to the fence and miter table, A bevel cut is made with the miter table set at the zero degree position and the blade set at an angle between 0° and 45°. Fig. 26 • Place the workpiece fiat on the miter table with one edge securely against the fence. If the board is warped, place the convex side against the fence. If the concave edge of a board is placed against the fence, the board could collapse on the blade at the end of the cut, jamming the blade. See Figures 33 and 34. • When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, support the opposite end of the stock with a roller stand or with a work surface level with the saw table. Align cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of saw blade. Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it against the fence. Use the optional work clamp or a C-clamp to secure the workpiece when possible. See Figure 26. ,_, WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, keep your hands outside the no hands zone; at least 3 in. from blade. Never perform any cuffing operation freehand (without holding workpiece against the fence). The blade could grab the workpiece if it slips or twists. • Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cuffing operation just to make sure that no problems will occur whe...
