and turn table. Switch on the tool without the blade
making any contact and wait until the blade attains
full speed. Then gently lower the handle to the fully
lowered position while applying pressure in parallel
with the blade. When the cut is completed, switch
off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS
COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning
the blade to its fully elevated position.
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the blade will move down to
bevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep hands out
of path of saw blade.
•
During a bevel cut, it may create a condition
whereby the piece cut off will come to rest against
the side of the blade. If the blade is raised while the
blade is still rotating, this piece may be caught by
the blade, causing fragments to be scattered which
is dangerous. The blade should be raised ONLY
after the blade has come to a complete stop.
•
When pressing the handle down, apply pressure
parallel to the blade. If the pressure is not parallel to
the blade during a cut, the angle of the blade might be
shifted and the precision of the cut will be impaired.
•
(Only for European countries) always set the
sub-fence outside when performing left bevel cuts.
4. Compound
cutting
Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel
angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle
is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be
performed at angle shown in the table.

When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press

When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer
blocks or pieces of scrap as shown in the figure to
prevent deformation of the aluminum. Use a
cutting lubricant when cutting the aluminum
extrusion to prevent build-up of the aluminum
material on the blade.
CAUTION:
•
Never attempt to cut thick or round aluminum
extrusions. Thick aluminum extrusions may come
loose during operation and round aluminum
extrusions cannot be secured firmly with this tool.
•
Never cut aluminum in the table saw mode (bench
mode).
6. Wood
facing
Use of wood facing helps to assure splinter-free
cuts in workpieces. Attach a wood facing to the
guide fence using the holes in the guide fence.
See the figure concerning the dimensions for a
suggested wood facing.

CAUTION:
•
Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood
facing.
•
Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide
fence. The screws should be installed so that the
screw heads are below the surface of the wood
facing.
•
When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the
turn base with the handle lowered. The blade
and/or the wood facing will be damaged.

When using the tool in the table saw mode (bench
mode), place the blade cover on the turn table so that
the blade cover is centered over the slit for the blade
entrance in the turn table and two small bosses on the
underside of the blade cover fit into the semi-circular slit
in the periphery of the guide fence on the turn table as
shown in the figure and then lock the handle in the
lowest position by fully pushing in the stopper pin. If not
fixing the blade cover, the table can not be down.
