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. Never press when blade
is rotating.
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.
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.
Material Clamp
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).
3. TYPES OF CUTS
OPERATION
Straight Cutting
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°.
Max. cutting capacity
wood: 62 x 310mm
Mitre Cuts
Mitre cuts are made with the mitre scale set
at an angle other than 0°
Max. cutting capacity
wood: 62 x 210mm
Bevel Cutting
A bevel cut is made by cutting across the
grain of the workpiece with the blade angled
to the mitre table.
Max. cutting capacity
wood: 36 x 310mm
Note:
For Bevel Cuts ensure the rear fence is adjusted for blade
clearance.
Compound Mitre Cuts
A compound mitre cut involves using a mitre
angle and a bevel angle at the same time.
Max. cutting capacity
wood: 36 x 210mm (Left),
