(1) Workpieces up to 3-1/2" (89 mm) high and 11-1/2"
(292 mm) wide:
Loosen the slide securing knob (see Fig. 1), grip the
handle and slide the saw blade forward.
Then press down on the handle and slide the saw
blade backward to cut the workpiece as indicated in
Fig. 32. This facilitates cutting of workpieces of up
to 3-1/2" (89 mm) in height and 11-1/2" (292 mm) in
width.
(2) Workpieces up to 2-1/2" (64 mm) high and 12-1/2"
(318 mm) wide:
Workpieces of up to 2-1/2" (64 mm) in height and up
to 12-1/2" (318 mm) in width can be cut in the same
manner as described in paragraph 4-(1) above on
page 27.
CAUTION
● If the handle is pressed down with excessive or
lateral force, the saw blade may vibrate during
the cutting operation and cause unwanted
cutting marks on the workpiece, thus reducing
the quality of the cut.
Accordingly, press the handle down gently and
carefully.
● In slide cutting, gently push the handle back
(rearwards) in a single, smooth operation.
Stopping the handle movement during the
cut will cause unwanted cutting marks on the
workpiece.
WARNING
● For slide cutting, follow the procedures indicated
above in Fig. 32.
Forward slide cutting (toward the operator) is
very dangerous because the saw blade could
kick upward from the workpiece. Therefore,
always slide the handle away from the operator.
● Always return the carriage to the full rear position
after each crosscut operation in order to reduce
the risk of injury.
● Never put your hand on the side handle during
the cutting operation because the saw blade
comes close to the miter lock handle when the
motor head is lowered.
5. Bevel cutting procedures
WARNING
The sub fences must be extended when making
any bevel cut. Failure to extend the sub fences
will not allow enough space for the blade to pass
through which could result in serious injury. At
extreme miter or bevel angles the saw blade may
also contact the fence.
33.9° Set pin (A)
Bevel lock handle
(1) When a bevel cut is required, loosen the bevel lock
handle.
(2) Tilt the cutting head to the desired angle while pulling
the set pin (A), as shown on the bevel scale.
(3) The blade can be positioned at any angle, from a
90° straight cut (0° on the scale) to a 45°. Tighten the
bevel lock handle to lock the cutting head in position.
Positive stops are provided at 0°, 33.9° and 45°.
NOTE
The saw comes with a 33.9° set pin (A) for setting
up crown moulding cuts when the angle of the walls
equals 90°.
(4) Turn the laser guide on and position the workpiece on
the table for pre-alignment of your cut.
