CONTOUR SAWING
• Contour cutting is guiding workpiece free-handed to
produce curved shapes.
• Turn the workpiece carefully so the blade follows
without twisting.
• Use a narrower blade to cut abrupt curves or make relief
cuts.
BEVEL CUTTING
• Beveled cutting is to tilt saw table for the desired
degree.
• Loosen locking handle to unlock table.
• Rotate knob to tilt table to desired position.
• Lock table by tightening locking handle.
Turn the switch to the “OFF” position and disconnect the
machine from power source before servicing or
disassembling any components.
CLEANING
• Keep machine and workplace clean. Avoid
accumulation of sawdust on the tool.
• Be certain motor is kept clean and free of dust.
• Use soap and water to clean painted parts, rubber parts
and plastic guards.
• Keep wheels clean. Debris on wheels will cause poor
tracking and blade slippage.
• Make sure blade brush is in contact with blade to
properly remove foreign particles from drive wheel.
LUBRICATION
• The shielded ball bearings are permanently lubricated
and require no further lubrication.
• Small amount of oil can be applied to belt tension
assembly and thread or sliding surfaces.

not operate the machine.

parts listed to order parts.
