CROSSCUT
Cross cutting means cutting perpendicularly to wood fibres
direction. To cross cut, use the goniometer at 0°.
'
Before using it, be sure that it is locked on the desired angle.
ANGLE CROSSCUT
For angle cut, adjust the cutting angle of the goniometer by loosening and tightening its screw, and press the
workpiece against it. Use the goniometer on the side on which it does not risk to interfere with the protective
cap.
OBLIQUE CUT
Oblique cut is a crosscut with the angled blade. Adjust the saw blade on the desired angle. Use the goniometer
in one of the grooves in order that it does not interfere with the protective cap.
COMPOSED CUT
Composed cut is a combination between an angle and a mitre cut. The cut is carried out at an angle different
from 90° both from workbench
s surface and from the workpiece
s length.

USE OF THE RIP FENCE
Cropping consists in cutting the wood along the fibres.
You must use the rip fence for all cropping works. Never trim a workpiece if the rip fence is not perfectly
blocked in its position on the workbench. You must use the rip fence for all cropping works, with the angled
blade or not.
Independently from an angled blade or not, you must use the rip fence for all cropping works.
Place the rip fence on the desired cutting width and tighten the lock handle. Before starting cropping check that
the rip fence is parallel to the saw blade and that the riving knife is perfectly aligned to the saw blade.
To trim big workpieces or panels always use a carriage to support the workpieces. Exert a light pressure and
always use the pusher until the piece is completely cut.
USE OF THE PUSHER
You must always use a pusher if your hands are less than
125 mm from the saw blade.
The pusher is a safety device that allows you to keep your
hands and fingers far from the saw blade. By holding the
pusher and leaning its rabbet on workpiece
s edge, you
'
can push the workpiece trough the blade, while keeping
the hands away from the dangerous area of the blade. It is
easy to create a pusher with a wood piece, it is important
tough that it is less wide than the workpiece and that it is
as long as the one included in the package.
