Transporting The Saw (Fig. L)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS lock the miter lock handle, bevel lock
knob, lock down pin before transporting saw.
NOTE: To avoid damage, never carry the miter saw by the
switch handle. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS secure all clamps, knobs, latches and locks before
lifting the saw.
1. Never carry the saw by the switch handle, miter clamp
or cutting head. The carrying handle
17
is appropriate
for when the saw is folded only. When saw is not folded,
the hand holds should be used.
2. ALWAYS use the support base when storing the saw
vertically.
WARNING: Do not transport the unit standing up in
a vehicle.
Removing And Installing The Blade
WARNING: Only use 10 inch (254 mm) diameter
crosscut blades on this saw. Do not use blades with
deep gullets. These can deflect and contact the guard,
and can cause damage to the machine and/or serious
injury. To avoid injury from an accidental start, make
sure the switch is in the OFF position and the plug is
not connected to the power source outlet.
NOTE: The miter saw comes with the saw blade
already installed.
WARNING: Make sure the blade is installed correctly
and is tight before operating.
Removing the Blade (Fig. M, N, O)
1. Unplug the saw from the outlet.
2. Raise the cutting head to the upright position.
3. Raise the lower blade guard

to the uppermost
position. (Fig. M)
4. Loosen the cover plate screw
25
with a Phillips
screwdriver (not included).
5. Rotate the cover plate
26
back to expose the arbor
bolt
