OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1) Pull on the release knob (6), raise the saw
arm (5) to its highest position and slide it
towards you.
2) Hold the handle firmly. Depress safety
button (1) and squeeze the switch trigger (24).
Allow the blade to reach maximum speed.
3) Slowly lower the blade into the workpiece
and slide it away from you at the same time
until the workpiece is cut.
4) Release the switch trigger (24) and allow the
saw blade to stop rotating before raising the
blade out of the workpiece.Wait until the
blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Bevel cut
A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain
of the workpiece with the blade angled to the
fence and mitre table.The mitre table is set at
the zero degree position and the blade set at
an angle between 0º and 45º.
Use the slide action when cutting wide
workpieces.
1) Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw
arm to its full height.
2) Loosen the mitre lock (25).
3) Rotate the mitre table (21) until the pointer
(22) aligns with zero on the mitre scale .
4) Retighten the mitre lock (25).
WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre lock
EN
before making a cut. Failure to do so could
result in the table moving during the cut,
causing serious personal injury.
5) Loosen the bevel lock (16) and pull out the
0º bevel adjuster. Move the saw arm (5) to the
left or right to the desired bevel angle (between
0º and 45º).Tighten the bevel lock (16).
6) Place the workpiece flat on the table with
one edge securely against the fence (19). If
the board is warped,place the convex side
against the fence. If the concave side is placed
against the fence, the board could break and
44
jam the blade.
7) When cutting long pieces of timber, support
the opposite end of the timber with the side
bars (36), a roller stand or a work surface that
is level with the saw table.
8) Use the clamp assembly (10) to secure the
workpiece wherever possible.
9) It is possible to remove the clamp assembly
(10) by loosening the clamp assembly lock
(11) and moving it to the other side of the
table.
Make sure the clamp assembly lock is tight
before using the clamp.
10) Before turning on the saw, perform a dry
run of the cutting operation to check that there
are no problems. Before turning on the saw,
perform a dry run of the cutting operation to
check saw arm sliding smoothly. If saw arm
can contact top fences (19A, 19B) at maximum
bevel degree, please adjust top fences
positions. Loosen the fence lock (45) on the top
fence (19A, 19B) and move top fence
outwards. Move saw arm to left or right to
maximum angle 45 degree, check saw arm
can slide smoothly. Please also check saw arm
at compound mitre cut operation.
11) Hold the operating handle (7) firmly.
Depress safety button (1) and squeeze the
switch trigger (24).Allow the blade to reach
maximum speed and slowly lower the blade
into and through the workpiece.
12) Release the switch trigger (24) and allow
the saw blade to stop rotating before raising
the blade out of the workpiece.Wait until the
blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Compound mitre cut
A compound mitre cut involves using a mitre
angle and a bevel angle at the same time. It is
used in making picture frames, to cut
mouldings, making boxes with sloping sides
and for roof framing.
Always make a test cut on a piece of scrap
wood before cutting into the good material.
Use the slide action when cutting wide
workpieces.
