and lift the saw out by the convenient lifting handle, as shown

in Figure 5. Place the saw on a smooth, flat surface such as a

workbench, strong table or D

WALT miter saw stand. Examine

Figure 4 to become familiar with the saw and its various parts.

The section on adjustments will refer to these terms and you

must know what and where the parts are.

CAUTION: Pinch Hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, keep

thumb underneath the operating handle (A) when pulling the

handle down. The lower guard will move up as the handle is

pulled down which could cause pinching. The handle is placed close to the guard for special

cuts.

Press down lightly on the operating handle and pull out the lock down pin (Q, Fig. 4). Gently

release the downward pressure and hold the arm allowing it to rise to its full height. Use the lock

down pin when carrying the saw from one place to another. Always use the carrying handle to

Do I need to wear hearing protection when using a mitre saw? Verified

Yes you should. Although the amount of noise produced by a mitre saw can vary between brands and models, long term exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage. That is why it is a good idea to wear hearing protection.

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
