(>5.2) OPErATING INSTruCTIONS
PrEPArING TO MAKE A CuT
Do not overreach. Keep good footing and
balance. Stand to one side so that your face
and body are out of line of a possible kickback.
wArNING:
Freehand cutting is a major cause
of accidents and should not be attempted.
• Ensure that the workpiece is firmly
secured in the vice.
• The machines base should be clean and free
from any swarf or sawdust etc. before the
workpiece is clamped into position.
• Ensure that the ‘cut-off’ material is free
to move sideways away from the blade
when the cut is completed. Ensure that the
‘cut-off’ piece cannot become ‘jammed’ in
any other part of the machine.
• Do not use this saw to cut small pieces. If
the workpiece being cut would cause your
hand or fingers to be within 150mm of the
sawblade, the workpiece is too small.
Angles should be clamped in an inverted
position so that the point of the section
is uppermost.

(5.4) ThE ON/OFF TrIGGEr SwITCh
This machine is equipped with
a safety start trigger switch.
To start the tool:
• Push in the safety lock button on the
side of the handle with your thumb.
• Depress the main trigger switch
to start the motor.
wArNING:
Never start the saw with the
cutting edge of the saw blade in contact
with the workpiece surface.
(5.3) MAKING A CuT
• With the Cutting Head in the upper
position, switch on the motor and allow it
to reach full operational speed.
• Gently lower the Cutting Head.
• Introduce the blade into the material slowly,
using light pressure at first to keep the
blade from grabbing.
• Gradually increase the pressure as a blade
enters the workpiece. Do not ‘force’ the
machine. Let the saw blade do the work.
Note: Cutting performance will not improve
by applying undue pressure on the machine,
and doing so may cause blade and motor life
to be reduced.
• Reduce the pressure as the blade begins to
exit the material.
• On completion of a cut allow the Cutting
Head to return to its upper position, and
turn off the motor.
• Only remove your hands, or the workpiece
from the machine, after the motor has
completely stopped and the stationary
blade is covered by the lower blade guard.
