5. Switch the machine on and wait until the saw blade reaches its maximum
speed.
6.
Press the handle downwards slowly. Allow the blade to cut through the material.
Do not force the tool.
7. After you have finished cutting, release the trigger switch and wait until the saw
blade stops completely, then raise the handle.
This is a good setting for simple angle cuts of smaller pieces.
COMPOUND CUT:
1. Move the sliding carriage to the rear as far as possible and lock in place by
tightening the
Carriage slide lock screw
(E, fig.1)
.
2. Lock the head in the upright, 0 degree bevel position using the
Slip-lock bevel
adjustment lever
(C, fig.1)
.
3. Unscrew the
Mitre clamp screw knob
(J, fig.1)
and use the
Mitre table adjusting
handle (N, fig.1)
to move the table rotation up to 45
o
to the left or right. The table
will encounter positive stops at 0

left and right.
4. Use the
Mitre clamp screw knob
(J, fig.1)
to lock the table at the desired angle,
especially those angles between the indexed positive stops as above.
5. Unlock the head from the upright, 0 degree bevel position using the Slip-lock
bevel adjustment lever and angle it to any desired position from 0
o
to 45
o
left,
according to the Mitre Indicator, then lock it in place.
6. Switch the machine on and wait until the saw blade reaches its maximum
speed.
7. Press the handle downwards slowly. Allow the blade to cut through the material.
Do not force the tool.
8. After you have finished cutting, release the trigger switch and wait until the saw
blade stops completely, then raise the handle.
This setting is for the more complex beveled angle cuts of smaller pieces.
NOTE:
At extreme positions, the hold-down clamp should be moved to the right
side of the table to prevent it interfering with the movement of the cutting head.
Always check before making the cut if there is any potential interference from the
clamp or any other part of the machine.
SLIDING CUT:
You can extend the cuts above to larger pieces (up to 310 mm / 12.2" wide on
right angle cuts) by loosening the
Carriage slide lock screw
and using the above
methods, cutting while sliding the saw head from the front towards the fence at the
back.
1. Release the
Carriage slide lock screw
(E, fig.1)
, allowing the carriage to slide
freely.
2. Completely pull the carriage towards the operator.
3. Switch the machine on and wait until it reaches maximum speed.
4. Press the handle downwards slowly. Push it away from you so the cutting head
slides toward the fence at the back so as to cut the workpiece.
5. Allow the blade to cut through the material. Do not force the tool.
6. After you have finished cutting, release the trigger switch and wait until the saw
blade stops completely, then raise the handle.
NOTE:
l
At extreme positions, the hold-down clamp should be moved to the right side of
the table to prevent it interfering with the movement of the cutting head. Always
check before making the cut if there is any potential interference from the clamp
or any other part of the machine.
l
Even though the angles are marked on the machine, it is always a good idea to
check them by making a trial cut.
SETTING DADO CUTS
This saw can be used to cut grooves (dadoes) in the workpiece, rather than cut
right through. The saw head is lowered only part way and while held in that position,
a sliding cut is made.
1. This dado depth is engaged when the
Dado stopper plate
is swung out and
