10. Hold the operating handle (1) firmly and squeeze the switch trigger. Allow the blade to reach maximum speed
and slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
11. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the
workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Cross-cutting (with slide action)
When cutting wideworkpieces, first unscrew theslide lock knob(13).
1. Pull on the release knob (Fig. 24), raise the saw arm to its highest position
and slide it towards you (Fig. 35).
2. Hold the handle firmly and squeeze the switch trigger. Allow the blade to
reach maximum speed.
3. Slowly lower the blade into the workpiece and push it away from you at the
same time until the workpiece is cut.
4. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before
raising the blade out of the workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Bevel cut
A bevel cut is made bycutting across the grain ofthe workpiece with the
bladeangled to the fence and mitertable. The miter table is setat the zero degree
positionand the blade set at an anglebetween 0º and 45º (Fig. 36).
Use the slide action when cutting wide workpieces.
1. Pull on the release knob (Fig. 24) and lift the saw arm to its full height.
2. Loosen the miter lock (Fig. 15).
3. Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with zero on the miter scale.
4. Retighten the miter lock (Fig. 15).
WARNING: Be sure to tighten the miter lock before makinga cut. Failure to do so could result in the table
movingduring the cut, causing serious personal injury.
5. Loosen the bevel lock (Fig. 16) and pull out the 0º bevel adjuster. Move the saw arm to the desired bevel angle
(between 0º and 45º). Tighten the bevel lock (Fig. 16).
6. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge securely against the fence. If the board is warped, place the
convex side against the fence. If the concave side is placed against the fence, the board could breakand jam the
blade.
7. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite end of the timber with the sidebars, a roller stand or a
work surface that is level with the saw table.
8. Use the clamp assembly to secure the workpiece wherever possible.
9. It is possible to remove the clamp assembly by loosening the clamp assembly lock and movingit to the other
side of the table. Make sure the clamp assembly lock is tight before using the clamp.
10. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to check that there are no problems.
11. Hold the operating handle (1) firmly and squeeze the switch trigger. Allow the blade to reach maximum speed.
12. Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
13. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the
workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Compound miter cut
A compound miter cut involves using a miter angle anda bevel angle at the
sametime (Fig. 37). It is used to make picture frames, cutmoldings, make
boxeswith sloping sides and frame roofs. Always make a testcut on a piece of
scrap woodbefore cutting into goodmaterial.
Use the slide action when cutting wide workpieces.
1. Pull on the release knob (Fig. 24) and lift the saw arm to its full height.
2. Loosen the miter lock (Fig. 15).
3. Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with the desired angle on the
miter scale.
