SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THIS TOOL
ALWAYS USE TABLE EXTENSIONS AND CLAMPS to support the material
when sawing long work pieces.
CUT ONLY WHILE SLIDING THE CUTTING HEAD FROM FRONT TO BACK.
The material must be placed firmly against the fence and table. The rotation
of the saw blade should force workpiece down against the table and rearward
against the fence during the cut. Cutting in the other direction; i.e. pulling the
cutting head and blade towards you during the cut, may cause the blade to
climb on top of the workpiece and create a kickback. When this happens, the
cutting head may jump out of your hand or the workpiece fly loose and cause
serious injury.
DON'T START THE SAW WITH THE BLADE IN CONTACT WITH ANY
SURFACE. The saw head may bounce up or kick back violently and cause
injury.
IF MAKING A CUT USING ONE HAND TO HOLD THE SAW, ensure the free
hand is clear of the cutting area.
WARNING: The warnings, cautions, and instructions in this manual cannot cover
all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION ARE FACTORS THAT
cannot be built into this product, but MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE OPERATOR.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
To disengage the cutting head from its shipping and storage position, push
down lightly on it and pull out the spring-loaded head locking button (V, fig.1)
on the right side below the motor. Turn it a quarter turn until the pin in the shaft
rests in the small groove to hold the button out.
To unlock the sliding action, partly unscrew the carriage slide lock screw
(J, fig.1 & 2), a small knob at the right rear of the slide carriage.
To unlock the head angle (bevel) adjustment, loosen the slip-lock bevel
adjustment lever (H, fig.1 & 2) at rear of the saw. Lock it when the blade is tilted
at the desired angle.
