CAUTION!:
FOR ALL TYPES OF CUTS ENSURE THE
SAW IS LOCKED INTO POSITION.
Depending on the cut, the material clamp will need to be mounted
on the appropriate side. When performing bevel cuts, the work
clamp must be on the
opposite side of the bevel
(otherwise it will interfere
with the cutting action).
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.
A compound mitre cut involves
using a mitre angle and a bevel
angle at the same time.

CAUTION!:
DO NOT USE THE MITRE SAW TO CUT
METAL OR MASONRY.
A straight cut is made by cutting
the grain of the workpiece. A 90
°
straight cut is made with the mitre
scale set in the 0
°
.
Mitre

Mitre cuts are made with the mitre
scale set at an angle other than 0
°

A bevel cut is made by cutting
across the grain of the workpiece
with the blade angled to the mitre
table.
3. TYPES OF CUTS
Spindle Lock
The spindle lock prevents the
blade in the saw from rotating.
Depress and hold the spindle
lock while installing, changing,
or removing the blade.
Straight Cutting
When cutting a narrow piece of wood, it is not necessary to use the
slide mechanism.
Bevel Cutting
Fence
Make sure that no part
of the tool contacts the
upper fence when bevel
or compound mitre
cutting. Always make
a dry run with the saw
turned off and check
clearance. Tighten
securely before making
a cut.
Mitre Cuts
Note:
For Bevel Cuts ensure the rear fence is adjusted for
blade clearance.
