General power tool Safety Warnings
read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.

SaFEtyOpEratiOnMaintEnancE SEtup
2. Electrical safety
a. power tool plugs must match the outlet.
never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. if operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFci) protected supply. Use of
a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b. use personal protective equipment. always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g. if devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent
use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
i. Only use safety equipment that has been
approved by an appropriate standards agency.
Unapproved safety equipment may not provide
adequate protection. Eye protection must be
ANSI-approved and breathing protection
must be NIOSH-approved for the
specific hazards in the work area.
j. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
k. Do not leave the tool unattended when
it is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its
electrical outlet before leaving.
l. This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach of children.
m. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields
in close proximity to heart pacemaker could
cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker
failure. In addition, people with pacemakers
should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Do not use with Trigger locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Properly ground power cord.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
should also be implemented – it prevents
sustained electrical shock.
n. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations
that may occur. It must be understood by the
operator that common sense and caution are
factors which cannot be built into this product,
but must be supplied by the operator.
4. power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it was designed.
Page 4 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Item 57179
SaFEty OpEratiOn MaintEnancESEtup
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories.
check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. if damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces
do not allow for safe handling and control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
6. Safety instructions for mitre saws
a. Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or
wood-like products, they cannot be used
with abrasive cut-off wheels for cutting
ferrous material such as bars, rods, studs,
etc. Abrasive dust causes moving parts
such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from
abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard,
the kerf insert and other plastic parts.
b. use clamps to support the workpiece
whenever possible. if supporting the
workpiece by hand, you must always keep
your hand at least 100 mm from either side
of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to
cut pieces that are too small to be securely
clamped or held by hand. If your hand is
placed too close to the saw blade, there is an
increased risk of injury from blade contact.
c. the workpiece must be stationary and
clamped or held against both the fence
and the table. Do not feed the workpiece
into the blade or cut ″freehand″ in any way.
Unrestrained or moving workpieces could
be thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
d. push the saw through the workpiece. Do
not pull the saw through the workpiece. to
make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out
over the workpiece without cutting, start the
motor, press the saw head down and push
the saw through the workpiece. Cutting on
the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade
to climb on top of the workpiece and violently
throw the blade assembly towards the operator.
e. never cross your hand over the intended
line of cutting either in front or behind
the saw blade. Supporting the workpiece
″cross handed″ i.e. holding the workpiece
to the right of the saw blade with your left
hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
f. Do not reach behind the fence with either
hand closer than 100 mm from either
side of the saw blade, to remove wood
scraps, or for any other reason while
the blade is spinning. The proximity of the
spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured.
g. inspect your workpiece before cutting. if the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with
the outside bowed face toward the fence.
always make certain that there is no gap
between the workpiece, fence and table along
the line of the cut. Bent or warped workpieces
can twist or shift and may cause binding on the
spinning saw blade while cutting. There should
be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
h. Do not use the saw until the table is clear
of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for
the workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces
of wood or other objects that contact the
revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
i. cut only one workpiece at a time.
Stacked multiple workpieces cannot be
adequately clamped or braced and may
bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
j. Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed
on a level, firm work surface before use.
A level and firm work surface reduces the
risk of the mitre saw becoming unstable.
Page 5For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797.Item 57179
SaFEtyOpEratiOnMaintEnancE SEtup
k. plan your work. Every time you change the
bevel or mitre angle setting, make sure the
adjustable fence is set correctly to support
the workpiece and will not interfere with
the blade or the guarding system. Without
turning the tool ″ON″ and with no workpiece
on the table, move the saw blade through a
complete simulated cut to assure there will be
no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
l. provide adequate support such as table
extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece
that is wider or longer than the table top.
Workpieces longer or wider than the mitre saw
table can tip if not securely supported. If the
cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the
lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
m. Do not use another person as a substitute
for a table extension or as additional
support. Unstable support for the workpiece
can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece
to shift during the cutting operation pulling
you and the helper into the spinning blade.
n. the cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length
stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged
against them blade and thrown violently.
o. always use a clamp or a fixture designed
to properly support round material such as
rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll
while being cut, causing the blade to ″bite″ and
pull the work with your hand into the blade.
p. Let the blade reach full speed before
contacting the workpiece. This will reduce
the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
q. if the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug
from the power source and/or remove
the battery pack. then work to free the
jammed material. Continued sawing with
a jammed workpiece could cause loss of
control or damage to the .mitre saw.
r. after finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for
the blade to stop before removing the
cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand
near the coasting blade is dangerous.
s. Hold the handle firmly when making an
incomplete cut or when releasing the switch
before the saw head is completely in the
down position. The braking action of the
saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly
pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.
7. Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
a. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for
an extended period should first be examined
by a doctor and then have regular medical
check-ups to ensure medical problems are not
being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant
women or people who have impaired blood
circulation to the hand, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to
vibration (such as tingling, numbness,
and white or blue fingers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
b. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
c. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
d. Use tools with the lowest vibration
when there is a choice.
e. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
f. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping
safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
g. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as
explained in this manual. If any abnormal
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.

Grounding
tO prEVEnt ELEctric SHOcK anD DEatH FrOM
incOrrEct GrOunDinG WirE cOnnEctiOn:
check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. never remove the
grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. if damaged, have
it repaired by a service facility before use. if the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
Grounded tools: tools with three prong plugs
3-prong plug and Outlet
1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have
a three wire cord and three prong grounding
plug. The plug must be connected to a properly
grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically
malfunction or break down, grounding provides
a low resistance path to carry electricity away
from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.
(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)
2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected
through the green wire inside the cord to the
grounding system in the tool. The green wire
in the cord must be the only wire connected to
the tool’s grounding system and must never
be attached to an electrically “live” terminal.
(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)
3. The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet,
properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet
should look like those in the preceding illustration.
(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)
Double insulated tools: tools with two prong plugs
Outlets for 2-prong plug
1. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not
require grounding. They have a special
double insulation system which satisfies
OSHA requirements and complies with
the applicable standards of Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard
Association, and the National Electrical Code.
2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the
120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration.
(See Outlets for 2-prong plug.)
Page 7For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797.Item 57179
SaFEtyOpEratiOnMaintEnancE SEtup
Extension cords
1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord.
Double Insulated tools can use either
a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases,
you must use a heavier gauge extension cord.
Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire
causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of
power and possible tool damage. (See table a.)
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the
greater the capacity of the cord. For example,
a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current
than a 16 gauge cord. (See table a.)
4. When using more than one extension cord
to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum
wire size required. (See table a.)
5. If you are using one extension cord for more
than one tool, add the nameplate amperes
and use the sum to determine the required
minimum cord size. (See table a.)
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make
sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in
Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired
and in good electrical condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired
by a qualified electrician before using it.
8. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

1. After adjusting the miter, bevel, or depth setting,
check and adjust both sides of the Fence.
2. Loosen one of the Fence Lock Knobs, and move
its Sliding Fence to be within 1/8" of the blade.
3. Tighten the Fence Lock Knob. Make sure that the
Sliding Fence still does not contact the Blade.
4. Repeat the process for the other Fence
Lock Knob and Sliding Fence.
using the Depth Stop
If a kerfing or rabbet cut which does not cut
through the workpiece is desired, use the
Depth Stop to control the depth of the cut.
1. Pull out the Head Lock-Down Pin and
raise the Saw Head Assembly.
2. Rotate the Depth Stop down to a horizontal
position to use the Depth Adjustment Bolt setting.
3. Pull down on the Saw Head to

Kerf Board Replacement / Adjustment
If the Kerf Boards become damaged
they must be replaced.
1. Remove the six screws holding the two Kerf
Boards in place and lift them from the Saw.
2. Install the new Kerf Boards, placing them
on either side of the cut line. Replace the
six screws and tighten them slightly.
to adjust the Kerf Boards:
1. Lower the Saw Head Assembly and lock it
down with the Head Lock-Down Pin.
2. Check for blade clearance by moving the Saw
Head through its full range of motion with the
bevel angle set at 0º, at maximum left bevel
angle, and at maximum right bevel angle. Refer
to Adjusting the Bevel Angle on page 12.
3. If the Saw Blade hits either of the Kerf
Boards, loosen the three screws for that
Board and adjust. Tighten the screws
and check again for blade clearance.

Workpiece Set up
1. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
2. Cut only the following materials:
Dimensional lumber, plywood, particle board, plastic.
note: Use caution to avoid overheating the cutting tips.
If cutting plastic, cut at an even pace to avoid melting it.
3. Refer to cutting capacities in the Specifications Table
on page 8 for limitations on workpiece size.
4. Allow room on both left and right sides
of Saw for extended workpieces.
5. Use additional supports if needed to ensure
the stability of the workpiece. Mount the Saw
so that the surface is level to the ground, and
additional supports to provide a surface on the
same level as the saw table. If the work surface
and any workpiece supports are not level, and
on the same level, unwanted bevel angles will
appear in the cuts resulting in poor joinery.
6. Secure workpieces to the saw table using the Clamp
or other clamping devices (not included). Securing
the workpiece will provide safety by preventing kick
back and by removing the need to hold workpieces
near the blade by hand. Clamping the workpiece
will also improve cutting accuracy by preventing the
workpiece from moving during the cutting operation.
using the Workpiece Extension Supports
1. The Table Extensions are located on each
side of the Table, and locked in place using
the Table Extension Lock Levers.
2. When properly installed, the upper face of
the Table Extensions are level with the Table,
and provide a wider support surface for the
workpiece. Each Extension has a Cut Stop Lever
which can be raised to make repetitive cuts.
3. Support the workpiece to be level with the table,
and so that after the cut is made the cut off pieces
will not fall. Use sawhorses or other supports
(not included) to support longer workpieces.
4. If the workpiece is not level, you will make
an unintentional bevel cut in the material.
If the workpiece is not supported, it will bind
the blade and may cause the material to
kick back, potentially causing injury.
General instructions for use
1. Make sure that the Trigger is in the
off-position, then plug in the tool.
WarninG! tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury:
The tool will restart automatically if stalled.
Sliding Miter Saw cutting procedure
2. Unlock the Head Lock-Down Pin.
3. Check that all adjustment knobs are tight (Miter
Lock Handle, Bevel Lock Handle, Fence Lock
Knobs, and Table Extension Lock Levers).
4. Blow any sawdust or debris away from the Fence.
Place the work material against the Fence.
5. To use the Shadow Cut Line Guide System to
align the cut, turn its Switch on. Pull the Saw
Head down until the Saw Blade is close to the
workpiece and the Blade’s shadow appears on
the work material, indicating where the Blade
will cut. Align the marked location of the cut on the
workpiece with the edge of the Saw Blade shadow.
6. The Saw will also operate without using the
Shadow Cut Line Guide System if desired. In that
case align the marked location of the cut on the
work material with the saw blade. To prevent the
workpiece from being cut too short, align the edge
of the blade with the measured mark, keeping the
rest of the blade on the waste side of the cut.
7. Hold the work material in place using the Clamp.
Ensure that the work material is level and supported
securely. Use saw horses or supports if necessary.
DanGEr! Saws can quickly
amputate fingers if misused.
Keep hands well clear of cutting area.
8. Grip the Saw Handle, press the Trigger
Lock Button with your thumb, and
squeeze the Trigger to start the Saw.
9. Use two hands and hold workpiece securely
against table and fence at all times.

10. With narrow material, press down lightly to
cut the workpiece. Press straight down,
“chopping” the material. Do not bear down on
the material — use light downward pressure.
If the material binds the blade, release the Trigger.
11. With wide material, move the Blade across
the workpiece while cutting as follows:
a. Loosen Slide Lock Knob and pull
Saw Head Assembly forward.
b. Press down on the Saw Handle.
c. Push the Saw Head toward the rear to
make the cut. Refer to Figure I.
Do not bear down on the material — use light
downward and lateral pressure. If the material
binds the blade, release the Trigger.
12. When the cut is completed, raise the Saw
Head, release the Trigger, wait for the Blade
to stop turning, release the Clamp and
remove the workpiece from the Saw.
13. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and
unplug it after use. Clean, then store the
tool indoors out of children’s reach.

checking and calibrating the Fence
The Fence holds the workpiece in a fixed position
while the Table and/or the Saw Head Assembly
are adjusted in a miter or bevel angle.
To make accurate cuts, the Fence must be
perpendicular (at a 90º angle) to the Saw Blade.
1. Before beginning work, make a test cut on scrap
material with the Table set to the 0º miter position.
2. Check the cut with an accurate square.
You can also reverse the two pieces, hold
the cut ends together, and hold a good
straight edge along the side of the pieces.
3. If either test reveals that the cut is not a true 90º
angle, adjust the Fence before beginning work.
if Fence needs adjustment:
1. First unplug the tool.
2. Loosen the Slide Lock Knob and push
the Saw Head Assembly to its rearmost
position and retighten the Knob.
3. Lower the Saw Head Assembly and lock it
in place using the Head Lock-Down Pin.
4. Lay a carpenter’s square on the Table with
one edge along the Blade and the other along
the Fence. Any inaccuracy should be visible.
NOTE: The square must contact the surface of
the blade, not the teeth, for an accurate reading.
5. The Fence is held in place with four Fence Adjusting
Bolts. Remove both Sliding Fences to access the
Bolts. Loosen the Bolts slightly, and gently tap the
Fence into position using a soft mallet. Tighten
the Bolts and make another test cut. Repeat the
process until the Fence is adjusted accurately.

calibrating the Bevel angle
For making accurate cuts, the Saw Blade must
be adjusted to be exactly vertical to the Table.
1. To check the angle, have the Saw Head
Assembly in its normal upright position and
set to the 0º bevel position. Make a cut on a
piece of flat sided, fairly thick scrap material.
2. Check the cut with an accurate square.
The cut should be at exactly 90º.
3. Angle can also be checked by rotating one cut-off
piece 180º and holding the cut ends together.
If the cut is not exactly vertical, the two
pieces will form a slight angle.
0° Bevel angle adjustment
1. First unplug the tool.
2. Set the Miter Table at 0°.
3. Unlock the Bevel Lock Handle, move the Saw Head
Assembly until the Bevel Angle Indicator is at 0° on
the Bevel Scale, then lock the Bevel Lock Handle.
4. Pull down the Saw Head until the
Blade just enters the table insert.
5. Place a framing square on the Miter Table
and up against the Saw Blade. NOTE: The
square must contact the surface of the Blade,
not the teeth, for an accurate reading.
6. If the Blade is not 90° square with the Miter
Table, loosen the 0° Bevel Set Bolt on the
saw arm with a hex key (not included).
7. Adjust the saw arm perpendicular to the Miter Table.
8. After alignment is achieved, tighten
the 0° Bevel Set Bolt.
WarninG! tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury:
