(1) Mark the desired cutting area clearly with lines all
side. (See Fig. 31)
Lower guard
lever
Fig. 31
(2) Set depth adjustment according to material to be cut.
(3) Push the lower guard lever all the way back so the
blade is exposed as shown in Fig. 31.
(4) Tilt the saw forward and align the notch (Fig. 27) with
the pre-marked guide line.
(5) Release the lower guard lever. When the lower guard
contacts the work piece surface, it will be in the proper
position to open freely when cutting is commenced.
(6) Holding the saw in position, with the blade not
contacting the work piece surface, pull the trigger
switch.
(7) After the saw has reached full speed, gradually lower
rear end of the saw until its base rests on the work
surface.
(8) Advance saw along the cutting line up to the corner.
(9) Release the trigger switch and allow the blade to stop
completely before withdrawing the blade from the
work piece.
○
Never under any circumstances pull the saw
backwards while the blade is in motion, as kickback
may result.
(10) Use a jig saw or hand saw to cut the corners out clean.
(11) When starting each new cut, repeat as above.
WARNING
Never hold the workpiece in your hands or across
your leg while cutting. Secure the workpiece to
a stable platform. It is important to support the
work properly to minimise body exposure, blade
binding, or loss of control.
8. Appropriate support for cutting large workpiece
Fig. 32-a
DON’T
support the large workpiece away from the cut.
Support
Fig. 32-b
ALWAYS
support the large workpiece
near
the cut.
Support
When the support is away from the cutting path, it may
cause the large workpiece to be curved. In such case,
the blade is likely to be bound, causing a kickback and
increasing the load to the motor. (Fig. 32-a)
Therefore, to avoid the possible personal injury or
kickback occurred, ALWAYS cut the large workpiece
with the appropriate support which shall be near the
cutting path. (Fig. 32-b)
9. Regulating the guide (Rip fence) (sold separately)
Install the wing bolt and lock spring on the base. Insert
the guide into the base, move it left and right and
adjust the cutting position. Tighten the wing bolt and
fi
x the guide. The guide can be installed either from
the left or the right side of the main body.
