upward stroke only (See Fig 7).
Pendulum Action
1 Thin materials. Fine cuts. Tight curves.
2 Hard materials, (e.g. steel & chipboard).
3 Thick materials ( e.g. wood ) & plastic.
4 Fast cuts (e.g. softwood). Cutting in the direction
of the wood grain.
11. BASE PLATE
Adjusting the angle of the base plate (10) enables bev-
el cutting. The base plate must always be held firmly
against the materials being cut to reduce saw vibration,
blade jumping or blade breakage.
12. BASE PLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
Using a Hex key. Loosen the bolts securing the base
plate (See Fig 8). For pre-set angles rotate the base so
the angle markings on the base plate line up with the
markings on the angle plate (14) for preset angles (0°,
15°, 30°, 45°) (See Fig 9,10). For other miter angles, rotate
to your desired angle (use a protractor scale). Follow-
ing one of the above procedures, hold the base plate in
position and firmly tighten the bolts to clamp the base
plate at the desired angle. Finally, check the angle and
ensure the base plate is firmly clamped.The angle mark-
ings on the base plate are accurate for most general pur-
pose cutting but it is recommended for accurate work to
set the angle with a protractor and make a test cut on a
piece of scrap material.
13. BLADE PROTECTION BAR
The blade protection bar is located in front of the blade
holder. While working, it will help prevent accidental
contact with the moving blade.
14. DUST BLOWER AIR HOLE
This is a small hole located underneath the housing just
behind the blade guide. Ensure this is kept clean to al-
low the airflow to continually blow dust away from the
cutting area.
15. SPLINTERING PROTECTOR
The splintering protector (15) prevents the splintering of
the surface when sawing in wooden materials. Press the
splintering protector from below into the base plate (See
Fig 11).
