Cross cutting
CAUTION:
When making a crosscut, remove
the rip fence from the table.
CAUTION:
When cutting long or large work
-
pieces, always provide adequate support to the
sides of the table. The support should be at the
same height as the table.
CAUTION:
Always keep hands away from
path of blade.

Compound mitering (angles)
Use the miter gauge for the 4 types of cutting shown in
the figure.
CAUTION:
Secure the knob on the miter
gauge carefully.
CAUTION:
Avoid creep of workpiece and
gauge by firm workholding arrangement, espe
-
cially when cutting at an angle.
CAUTION:
NEVER hold or grasp the intended
"cut-off" portion of the workpiece.
CAUTION:
Always adjust the distance
between the end of the miter gauge and the saw
blade not to exceed 15 mm.

Knob
Miter gauge is provided with positive stops at 90°,
45°right and left miter angles for quick setting of miter
angles.
To set the miter angle, loosen the knob on the miter
gauge.
Raise the small plate on the miter gauge for free setting.
Turn the miter gauge to the desired miter angle. Return
the small plate on the miter gauge to the original posi-
tion and tighten the knob clockwise securely.

Knob
Slide the miter gauge into the thick grooves in the table.
Loosen the knob on the gauge and align to desired
angle (0° to 60°). Bring stock flush up against fence and
feed gently forward into the saw blade.
Sub gauge (miter gauge)

Sub gauge
The sub gauge on the miter gauge prevents the work
-
piece from wobbling. Loosen the screw on the miter
gauge and adjust the sub gauge position.
Carrying tool
►
Fig.46
Make sure that the tool is unplugged.
Carry the tool by holding the tool part shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
Always secure all moving portions
before carrying the tool.
CAUTION:
Before the carrying the tool, make
sure that the blade guard and the sub guard are
down and the lower edge of the sub guard con
-
tacts with the main table.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
Cleaning
Clean out sawdust and chips from time to time.
Carefully clean the blade guard and moving parts inside
the table saw.
When removing the sawdust accumulated under the
saw blade, remove the table insert and use an air
duster to blow out the sawdust from the connector for a
vacuum cleaner.
Lubrication
To keep the table saw in tip-top running condition, and
to assure maximum service life, oil or grease the mov-
ing parts and rotating parts from time to time.
Lubrication places:
•
Threaded shaft to elevate the saw blade
•
Hinge to rotate the frame
•
Elevation guide shafts on motor
•
Gear to elevate the saw blade
•
Guide rails for the rip fence
•
Shaft of the sub table (R) locking levers
•
Sliding part of the sub table (R)
Replacing carbon brushes
Check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace them when they wear down to the limit mark.
Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the
holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the
same time. Use only identical carbon brushes.

Loosen the lock lever and turn the handwheel
until the saw head is tilted to 45° bevel angle. After that,
tighten the lock lever.
