4. Setup
Although the saw comes largely pre-assembled, some setup is required before first use.
Unpacking and Placement:
- Carefully remove the saw and all accessories from the packaging.
- Inspect the saw for any shipping damage. Do not operate if damaged.

- Ensure the rubber feet are securely positioned to prevent movement.
Initial Adjustments:
- Verify that all locking mechanisms for the miter table, bevel head, and telescopic rail are functioning correctly.
- Check the alignment of the blade with the miter scale and laser guide. Adjust if necessary according to the calibration section (if applicable in a detailed manual).
- Connect the saw to a suitable power outlet (220V AC).

5. Operating Instructions
Follow these steps for safe and effective operation of your miter saw.
Basic Cutting Procedure:
- Prepare Workpiece: Mark your desired cut line on the material.
- Adjust Settings: Set the desired miter angle on the rotary table and the bevel angle on the tilting head. Secure all locking levers.
- Position Workpiece: Place the workpiece firmly against the fence and the saw table. Use the vertical clamp to secure it. Ensure the material is fully supported, using the extendable supports if needed.
- Align Cut: Lower the saw head slightly (without starting the motor) to align the blade with your marked cut line. Use the laser guide for precise alignment.
- Start Saw: Ensure your hands are clear of the blade path. Press the power switch to start the motor. Allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning the cut.
- Make Cut: Slowly and steadily lower the saw head through the workpiece. For telescopic cuts, push the saw head forward along the rail as you cut.
- Complete Cut: Once the cut is complete, release the power switch and allow the blade to stop completely before raising the saw head.
- Remove Workpiece: Carefully remove the cut material and any off-cuts.

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your miter saw.
Cleaning:
- After each use, disconnect the saw from power and clean off sawdust and debris using a brush or vacuum cleaner.
- Pay special attention to the blade guard, miter scale, and telescopic rails to ensure smooth operation.
- The dust collection system is designed to minimize sawdust, but regular cleaning of the dust bag/port is essential.
Blade Care and Replacement:
- Regularly inspect the saw blade for sharpness, cracks, or missing teeth. A dull blade can cause kickback and poor cut quality.
- When replacing the blade, ensure the saw is unplugged. Follow the instructions in your saw's specific blade replacement guide. Use only blades with a 315mm diameter and appropriate arbor size.
Belt Inspection:
- Periodically inspect the drive belt for wear, cracks, or slippage. A worn belt can affect performance and increase noise.
- Refer to the service manual for instructions on belt replacement if necessary.
