saw vibration, blade jumping or blade breakage.
8. Base plate angle adjustment
Loosen the base plate bevel lock knob (17) and
rotate the base plate (12) to set the bevel angle
using the base plate angle scale (18). Then clamp
the base plate (12) in position using the lock
knobs (17) (See fig6). Finally, check the angle and
ensure the base plate is firmly clamped. The angle
markings on the angle scale are accurate for most
general purposes but it is recommended, for
accurate work, to set the angle with a protractor
and make a test cut on other material. Do not use
the depth of cut scale when making bevel cuts
due to possible inaccuracy.
9. Parallel guide adjustment
Used for making cuts parallel to a work-piece
edge at a chosen distance. Slide the parallel guide
arm through both fixtures to achieve the required
cutting distance and tighten screw to lock into
position (See fig7). Can be used from both sides
of the base plate. The cutting distance is shown
on the scale by the 0
O
or 45
O
cutting guide marks.
Always make a trial cut to check the setting.
10. Dust extraction outlet
To remove sawdust, connect a suitable external
dust extraction device (e.g. vacuum cleaner)
to the dust extraction outlet (9) using a flexible
hose connection. Ensure the hose connection is
secure.
11. Disposal of an exhausted battery pack
To preserve natural resources, please recycle
or dispose of the battery pack properly.
This battery pack contains nickel-cadmium
batteries. Consult your local waste authority for
information regarding available recycling and/or
disposal options. Discharge your battery pack
by operating your saw, then remove the battery
pack from the saw housing and cover the battery
pack connections with heavy duty adhesive tape
to prevent short circuit and energy discharge.
Do not attempt to open or remove any of the
components.
