any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
AB Use of XPS TM LED Worklight System (Fig. 3)
CAUTION: Do not stare at operating lamp.
NOTE: The battery must be charged and connected to the miter saw.
The XPS TM LED Worklight System can be turned on by the momentary switch (Q). The light will automatically turn off within
20 seconds if the saw is not in use. The light is also activated automatically every time the tool's main trigger (A) is pulled.
To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood, turn on the XPS
(not with the main trigger), then pull down on the operating handle (B) to bring the saw blade close to the wood. The shadow
of the blade will appear on the wood. This shadow line represents the material that the blade will remove when performing a
cut. To correctly locate your cut to the pencil line, align the pencil line with the edge of the blade's shadow. Keep in mind that
you may have to adjust the miter or bevel angles in order to match the pencil line exactly.
