2. Adjust the settings for bevel, angle mitre and the fence. Simulate
the cut without power or the workpiece to confirm the settings will
not interfere with the blade or safety guard.
3. Check for foreign materials like staples or nails lodged in the
workpiece and remove them.
4. Adjust the blade height so the teeth protrude between 1/8 to 3/8
inches (3 to 10 mm) beyond the material's surface during the cut,
unless you are creating a shallow cut in the workpiece.
5. Clamp or otherwise secure the workpiece in position. Clamp a
bowed or twisted workpiece with the convex side against the
fence. There must be no gap between the workpiece and fence at
the point of the cut. Warped workpieces can twist or shift during
the cut.
6. Hold rods, tubes or cylindrical workpieces with a clamping systems
that will prevent it from rolling.
7.
Support a workpiece that is wider or longer than the work table
with table extensions or saw horses. The end of a cut-off piece can
pivot upward and lift safety guard or catch and be thrown by the
spinning blade.
CUTTING THE WORKPIECE
1.
Hold the saw blade away from the workpiece. Press the safety
release, then the trigger
2. Wait until the blade reaches its full speed before beginning your
cut. Beware of kickback.
3. Steadily push the saw head down into the workpiece, then away
from you, until the cut is complete. Let the weight of the saw
provide the cutting force. Run the saw blade at full speed for a
smoother cut.
4. Release the trigger and safety and allow the saw blade to stop
spinning, then raise the saw head clear of the workpiece.

1.
