>D1;4=BD;0C43)>>;B
Double insulation is a design concept used in
electric power tools which eliminates the need for
the three wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system. It is a recognized and ap-
proved system by Underwriter’s Laboratories, CSA
and Federal OSHA authorities.
• Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires
care and knowledge of the system and should be
performed only by a qualified service technician.
• WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL RE-
PLACEMENT PARTS.
• POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of elec-
trical shock, your tool is equipped with a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other), this plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to in-
stall the proper outlet. To reduce the risk of elec-
trical shock, do not change the plug in any way.
GC4=B8>=>A3B
• Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of
damaged cords can shock, burn or electrocute.
• If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with ade-
quate size conductors should be used to prevent ex-
cessive voltage drop, loss of power or overheating.
The table shows the correct size to use, depending
on cord length and nameplate amperage rating of
tool. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Always
use U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
'$""#(/($-)#($#

1. Connect this saw to a 120V, 15-amp branch cir-
cuit with a 15-amp time delay fuse or circuit
breaker. Using the wrong size fuse can damage
the motor.
2. Fuses may “blow” or circuit breakers may trip fre-
quently if motor is overloaded. Overloading can
occur if you feed the blade into the workpiece too
rapidly or start and stop too often in a short time.
3. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or in-
correct connections, overload, low voltage (such
as small size wire in the supply circuit or too
overly long supply circuit wire). Always check the
connections, the load and the supply circuit when-
ever motor does not work well.
;42CA82A0:4
Your saw is equipped with an automatic electric
brake which is designed to stop the blade from spin-
ning in about five (5) seconds after you release the
trigger switch. It is useful when making certain cuts
in wood where a coasting blade would result in a
wide, imprecise cut.
When electrical power is lost due to
blown fuse or other causes, the
motor will gradually slow down and the braking action
is initiated ONLY by the release of the trigger switch.
The electric blade brake of your miter saw has been
designed for highest degree of reliability, but unex-
pected circumstances such as contamination on the
commutator and brushes or failure of motor’s com-
ponents can cause the brake not to activate. If this
condition occurs, turn the saw “ON” and “OFF” four
to five times without contacting the workpiece. If the
tool operates but the brake does not consistently
stop the blade in about five (5) seconds, DO NOT
use saw and have it serviced immediately.
The brake action of this saw is not
intended as a safety feature. Re-
member to let the saw blade come to a complete
stop before raising the blade from the workpiece. As
always the guard system is your best protection
against unintentional contact with a spinning saw
blade. NEVER wedge open or defeat the closing
action of the lower guard.

1. With the miter arm locked in the down position,
push the dust elbow onto the dust port. Push the
dust bag onto the elbow and rotate both to de-
sired position. (Figure 4).
2. Position dust chute/bag so that it does not inter-
fere with the tool during the cutting operation for
all miter/bevel settings. Make sure dust bag does
not interfere with the slide rails during slide cut-
ting.
3. The dust bag requires emptying when full of
sawdust. Empty it frequently and after completion
of sawing. Carefully remove dust bag from dust
elbow. Empty dust bag in proper trash
bin by unzipping the bag. Be extremely careful of
dust disposed, materials in fine particle form may
be explosive. Do not throw sawdust on an open-
fire. Spontaneous combustion, may in time, result
from mixture of oil or water with dust particles.
NOTE: The dust port accepts the Bosch VAC004
Vacuum Hose Adapter, which allows connection to
a Bosch 35mm vacuum hose.
When sawing chemically pressure
treated lumber, paint that may be
lead based, or any other materials that may contain
carcinogens, use special precautions. A suitable res-
pirator must be worn by all personnel entering the
work area. Work area should be sealed by plastic
sheeting and persons not protected should be kept
out until work area is thoroughly cleaned.

K When the diameter of the blade has been reduced
due to sharpening, it may be necessary to adjust
the depth stop. When a new blade is installed, it
is necessary to check the clearance of the blade to
the turn table structure.

KThe depth stop adjustment is a feature used when
cutting grooves in the workpiece. (See page 30 for
cutting grooves.)
1. Loosen and turn both of the lower Jam Nuts to just
above the threaded end of the Depth Stop Bolt
(Fig. 13).
2. Press Depth Stop Release Button and pull up
Depth Stop Bolt until nuts hit the bottom of its sup-
port frame.
3. Set the table to the 0° miter position. Push down
and slide back saw head to the full back position.
4. While looking at both the blade and the corner
where the fence meets the table, turn the Depth
Stop Bolt to set the blade depth to about 1/4 inch
below the table’s surface.
5. Release the saw head to the up position.
6. Turn both lower Jam Nuts to be tight against the
bottom of the support frame. Tighten nuts against
each other.
7. Practice slide cutting (with tool unplugged) to verify
that the blade does not touch table. If it clears the
table, make a practice cut (with tool plugged) on
scrap wood to verify that the cut goes completely
through the lower front edge of the workpiece
Do not start the miter saw without
checking for interference between
the blade and the turn table structure. The blade
could be ruined if it cuts into the table structure.

To avoid injury always observe the
following:
• Unplug electric cord. Before transporting the saw,
rotate head and lock assembly to 60° right miter,
lock into detent, slide head assembly to the middle
of it’s rail, tighten the slide rail lock knob and lock
the head assembly in the lowered position.
!85C8=6(0F
• To avoid back injury, hold the tool close to your
body when lifting. Bend your knees so you can lift
with your legs, not your back.
• Lift by using the cast-in carry handles at each
side of the bottom of the base.
• Alternate lifting method: When picking tool up
from ground, use rear carrying handle and front
carrying handle (above guard).

and the wire connections resulting in electric shock
or fire.
• Observe the position of the saw. People standing
behind it could be injured by thrown debris.
• Place the saw on a firm, level surface where there
is plenty of room for handling and properly support-
ing the workpiece.
• Bolt, nail or clamp the saw to its support.
