clockwise direction).

Cross-cutting (without slide action)

When cutting a narrow piece of 

wood it is not necessary to use 

the slide mechanism. In these 

cases ensure that the slide lock 

(29) is screwed down to prevent 

the saw arm from sliding.
A crosscut is made by cutting 

across the grain of the workpiece. 

A 90º crosscut is made with the 

mitre table set at 0º (Fig. i). Mitre 

crosscuts are made with the table 

set at some angle other than zero.

1. Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw arm (5) to its 

full height.

2. Loosen the mitre lock (25). 
3. Rotate the mitre table (21) until the pointer aligns with the 

desired angle.

4. Retighten the mitre lock (25).

WARNING.

 Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making 

a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving 

during the cut and cause serious personal injury.
5. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge 

securely against the fence (18). If the board is warped, 

place the convex side against the fence (18). If the 

concave side is placed against the fence, the board could 

break and jam the blade.

6. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite 

end of the timber with the side support bars (36), a roller 

stand or a work surface that is level with the saw table.

7. Use the clamp assembly (10) to secure the workpiece 

wherever possible.

8. It is possible to remove the 

clamp assembly (10) by 

loosening the clamp  

assembly lock (11) and 

moving it to the other side of 

the table. Make sure the clamp 

assembly lock is tight before 

using the clamp (Fig. j).

9. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the 

cutting operation to check that there are no problems.

10. Hold the operating handle (7) firmly and squeeze  

the switch trigger (24). Allow the blade to reach 

maximum speed.

11. Press the release latch (35) and slowly lower the blade 

into and through the workpiece.
