HINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE
Sawing laminates
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering
may occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
f
Use a fine-tooth sae blade.
f
Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
f
To minimize splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood
or hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw
through this sandwich.
Sawing metal
f
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time
than sawing wood.
f
Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
f
When cutting thin metal, clamp a piece of scrap wood
to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
f
Spread a film of oil along the intended lineof cut
for easier operation and longer blade life. For cutting
aluminum, kerosene is preferred.
RIP / CIRCLE CUTTING (FIG. G AND H)
Ripping and circle cutting without a pencil line are easily
done with the rip fence / circle guide (noy included -
available at extra cost)
Using the screw supplied with the accesory guide, position
as shown in Fig. G and thread the screw into the shoe to
clamp the fence securely.
When ripping, position as shown in Fig G. and slide the rip
fence under the screw from either side of the saw. Set the
cross bar (10) at desired distance from blade and tighten
screw. For ripping, the cross bar should be down and
against the straight edge of the workpiece as shown.
When circle cutting, adjust rip fence so that distance from
balde to hole in fence arm (11) is at the desired radius and
tighten screw. Place saw so that hole in fence arm is over
center of circle to be cut (drill hole for blade or cut inward
from edge of material to get blade into position). When
saw is properly positioned, drive a small nail through hole
in fence arm. Using rip fence as a pivot arm, begin cutting
circle. For circle cutting, the cross bar should be up, as
shown in Fig. H.
