PERFORM CUTS
CORRECTLY & SAFELY
Wherever practicable always secure the work
piece to the saw table using the work clamp
where provided.
Always ensure that before each cut the mitre
saw is mounted in a stable position.
If needed the mitre saw can be mounted
on a wooden base or work bench or attached
to a mitre saw stand as detailed in this
Instruction Manual.
Long work pieces should be supported on the
work supports provided or on appropriate
additional work supports.

could result in serious personal injury.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY ADVICE
CARRYING YOUR TABLE MITRE SAW
Safety Advice
• Although compact, this saw is heavy.
To reduce the risk of back injury, get
competent help whenever you have to
lift the saw.
• To reduce the risk of back injury, hold
the tool close to your body when lifting.
Bending your knees so you can lift with
your legs, not your back. Lift by using
the handhold areas at each side of the
machines base.
• Never carry the Table Mitre Saw by the
power cord. Carrying the tool by the power
cord could cause damage to the insulation
or the wire connections resulting in electric
shock or fire.
• Before moving the saw tighten the
mitre and bevel locking screws to guard
against sudden unexpected movement.
• Lock the Cutting Head in its lowest position.
Ensure that the Cutting Head Locking Pin is
completely engaged in its socket.
WARNING:
Do not use the blade guard
as a ‘lifting point’. The power cord must be
removed from the power supply before
attempting to move the machine.
• Lock the Cutting Head in the down position
using the Cutting Head locking pin.
• Loosen the Mitre Angle Locking Screw. Turn
the table to either of its maximum settings.
• Lock the table in position using the
Locking Screw.
• Use the two carry handle cut-outs
machined into either side of the machine
base, to transport the machine.
Place the saw on a secure stationary work
surface and check the saw over carefully.
Check particularly the operation of all the
machines safety features before attempting to
operate the machine.
