BENCH MOUNTING
The saw base has holes to facilitate bench mounting.
1. Fix the saw to a bench using 4 hex. bolts and hex. nuts.
2. If desired, you can mount the saw to a piece of 13mm or thicker plywood
which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites
and reclamped.
CAUTION
: Make sure that the mounting surface is not warped as an uneven
surface can cause binding and inaccurate sawing.
ADJUSTING FENCE EXTENSIONS
This miter saw comes with a back fence with fence extensions (A) Fig.7 at both
ends which slide outwards for additional back support for those long
workpieces. Please note that during steep bevel cut operations, these fence
extensions must be fully extended to not interfere with the motor housing or
blade guard. To adjust the position of each fence extension;
1. Loosen the fence extension rear lock knob (B).
2. Slide the fence extension (A) outwards to the desired position and retighten
the rear lock knob.
DEPTH OF CUT STOP ADJUSTMENT
In its normal position, the depth of cut stop Fig.8 permits the saw blade to cut
right through a workpiece. When the saw arm is lifted, the depth of cut stop (A)
Fig.9 can be slid over towards the front of the saw so that the depth adjustment
screw (B) contacts the stop as the saw head is lowered. This resricts the cut to
a “adjusted depth” in the workpiece. The depth of cut can be adjusted with the
adjustment screw and locked in position with the lock nut (C) Fig.9.
ADJUSTING BEVEL ANGLE
This miter saw is capable of dual bevel angles which means the saw head can
be inclined or tilted towards the right or the left. To adjust the saw head to any
bevel angle;
Loosen the bevel lock knob (A) Fig.10 and pull the positive stop adjustment
knob (B) outwards as shown. At this point, the saw head can be inclined to any
angle you desire. If you require a predetermined bevel angle of 0
0
, push the
adjustment knob inwards and pivot the saw head until it stops at 0
0
. Once the
desired bevel angle is obtained, it is very important that you retighten the bevel
lock knob (A).
