4. OPERATION
1. The blade cuts on a continuous downstroke.
2. Slowly feed the workpiece towards the blade, putting only light pressure on it.
3. With both hands, firmly hold the workpiece down on the table, and feed it towards the
blade slowly, using the push stick supplied, keeping your hands away from the blade.
4. For best results the blade must be sharp.
5. Select the right blade for the job, depending on the thickness of the wood and the cut to be
made. The thinner and harder the wood, the finer the teeth of the blade. Use a fine tooth
blade for cutting sharp curves.
6. Use the fence provided to feed the workpiece along the blade slowly and in a straight line.
7. The machine is especially suited for cutting curves, but will also make straight cuts.
8. When cutting, follow the design marked out by pushing and turning the workpiece evenly.
9. Do not attempt to turn the workpiece without pushing it, as this may cause the workpiece to
get stuck, or the blade to bend.
5. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION! BEFORE CLEANING OR CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE WORK,
DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE (WALL SOCKET).
NEVER USE WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS TO CLEAN THE MACHINE. USE A BRUSH.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE WILL PREVENT UNNECESSARY PROBLEMS.
1. Keep the table clean to ensure accurate cutting.
2. Keep the outside of the machine clean to ensure accurate operation of all moving parts and
prevent excessive wear.
3. Keep the ventilation slots of the motor clean to prevent it from overheating.
4. Keep the inside (near the saw blade, etc.) clean to prevent accumulation of dust.
