Straight and Mitre Cutting (without slide action)
When cutting a narrow piece of wood, it is not necessary to use the slide
mechanism. In these circumstances, push back the cutting head (3) and ensure the
slide locking knob (32) is tight to prevent the cutting head (3) from sliding.
A straight cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece. A 90° straight cut is made with the mitre
index scale (29) set at 0° (Fig. 24).
Mitre cuts are made with the mitre index scale (29) set
at an angle other than 0° (Fig. 25).
1. Ensure the cutting head (3) is raised and the head
locking pin (4) is released.
