aware of the position and routing of the power
cable. The cable must be routed in such a way
that there is no possibility of the blade coming
into contact with the mains cable.
The cable should not pose a trip (or any
other type) of hazard to the operator or any
bystanders.
• Do not force the machine.
• Allow the speed of the saw blade do the
work. Cutting performance will not be
improved by applying excessive pressure to
the machine and blade life will be reduced.
• When using the parallel edge guide, ensure
that it is parallel with the blade. The blade
and/or motor could become damaged if
the machine is used with an incorrectly
adjusted parallel edge guide.
• Place front edge of sole plate squarely on
the workpiece. Before starting the motor
ensure that the blade is not in contact with
the workpiece.
• When starting a cut, taking care to
introduce the blade to the material slowly,
so as not to damage blade teeth.
Note: Two (2) line of cut guides are provided
at the front of the sole plate of the CCSL
machine (for 0˚ and 45˚ bevel angles only).
• Use both hands to move the saw forwards
through the work piece.
• Apply smooth, constant pressure to move
the saw forwards through the workpiece.
Note: All CCS series machines have an
automatic lower blade guard which has a
specially shaped leading front edge. This
feature ensures that the blade guard retracts
smoothly and effortlessly as the machines
blade enters the workpiece. As the blade exits
the workpiece the lower blade guard will
automatically return to its normal position
covering the blade completely.
Note: On some occasions e.g. making a
plunge cut into a floor or wall etc. it may be
advantageous to retract the lower blade
guard manually.
A thumb operated lever is provided on
the lower blade guard. With care, a skilled
operator can retract the blade guard
manually, either partially or fully, allowing
plunge cuts to be made.
WARNING: If retracting the blade guard
manually great care must be taken to ensure
that the operators hand or fingers do not
touch any part of the machines blade.
When a cut has been completed:
• Release the ON/OFF Trigger switch.
• Allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
• Remove the machine from the workpiece
allowing the lower blade guard to return to
its normal position covering the blade.
WARNING: If the motor should stop or stall
whilst a cut is being attempted release the
trigger switch immediately. Disconnect the
machine from the power supply and remove
the machine from the workpiece. Investigate
the cause of the problem and rectify if possible.
Only attempt to restart the motor when you
are absolutely sure that it is safe to do so.
CUT MATERIAL EJECTION PORT
WARNING: Do not use the dust bag and dust
port adaptor when cutting metallic materials
including wood with nails.
MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
(18)
The 0˚ (blade vertical) position can be adjusted.
WARNING: The machine must be
disconnected from the mains power supply
when attempting this procedure.
To check 0˚ position:
• Set the blade to the 0˚ position with the
tilting mechanism against its stop.
• Check the blade against the sole plate
using an engineers precision square (not
supplied). Take care to avoid the TCT tips of
the teeth. The blade should be at exactly 90˚
to sole plate.
Note: The lower blade guard should be rotated
(manually) up into the upper blade guard. This
will help accurate positioning of the engineers
