Retractable Safety Guard
The lower guard provides protection to your hands and limbs when
the mitre saw head is in the up position. During the operation of
the saw, when the saw is turned on and you are making a cut, the
lower guard retracts over the upper guard as the saw is lowered
into the work piece.
1. To retract the lower guard, slide the
release lever right with your thumb and
press handle down.
Turning The Saw On
1. To turn the mitre saw on, squeeze the
trigger switch.
2. To turn the mitre saw off, release the
trigger switch.
Note:
Before performing a cut, ensure the
blade is at full speed. Failure to do this
may cause the blade to become blunt and
cause the blade to lock-up.
Slide Action
When cutting wide pieces of wood, ensure
the slide lock is loose.
1. First pull carriage fully
forwards, slide the release
lever right with your thumb
and press handle down.
2. Push carriage toward the
rear fence.
