4. Press mitre lock plate down with your thumb and
hold.
5. Rotate the control arm until the pointer aligns with
the desired angle on the mitre scale.
6. Release the mitre lock plate.
NOTE:
You can quickly locate 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.62°
left or right, and 45
o
left or right by releasing the lock
plate as you rotate the control arm. The lock plate
will seat itself in one of the positive stop notches,
located in the mitre table frame.
7. Tighten the mitre table lock knob securely.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury,
ALWAYS tighten the mitre table lock knob
securely BEFORE making a cut. Failure to do so could
result in movement of the control arm or mitre table
while making a cut.
8. Place work-piece flat on the mitre table with one
edge securely against the fence. If the board is
warped, place the convex side against the fence. If
the concave edge of the board is against the fence,
the board could collapse on the blade at the end of
the cut and jam the blade.
9. When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding,
support the opposite end of the stock with a roller
stand or with another work surface that is level with
the saw table.
10. Align cutting line on the work-piece with the edge
on the saw blade.
11. Hold the stock firmly with one hand and secure
it against the fence. Use the hold-down clamp to
secure the work-piece when possible.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal
injury, ALWAYS keep your hands outside the
“no hands zone”(red lines); at least 80mm from
blade. Also, NEVER perform any cutting operation
“freehand” (i.e. without holding work-piece against the
fence); the blade could grab the work-piece, causing it
to slip and twist.
12. BEFORE turning on the saw, perform a dry run of
the cutting operation just to make sure that no problems
will occur when the cut is made.
13. Hold the saw handle firmly, when squeezing the switch
trigger. Allow several seconds for the blade to reach
maximum speed.
14. Slowly lower the blade into and through the work-piece.
15. Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating BEFORE raising the blade out of the work-
piece.
Wait until the electric brake stops the blade from turning
BEFORE removing the work-piece from the mitre table.
3. BEVEL CUTTING (SEE FIG. G)
A bevel cut is a cut made across the grain of the
work-piece with the blade at an angle to the work-
piece.
A straight bevel cut is made with the mitre table
set in the 0
o
position and the blade set at an angle
between 0
o
and 45
o
.
4. COMPOUND MITRE CUTTING (SEE FIG. H)
A compound mitre cut is a cut made using a mitre
angle and a bevel angle at the same time. This type of
cut is used for moldings, picture frames, and boxes
with sloping sides.
To make this type of cut the control arm on the mitre
table must be rotated to the correct angle and the
saw arm must be tilted to the correct bevel angle.
ALWAYS take special care when making compound
mitre setups due to the interaction of the two angle
settings.
Adjustments of mitre and bevel settings are
dependent on one another. Each time you adjust
the mitre setting, you change the effect of the bevel
setting. Also, each time you adjust the bevel setting,
you change the effect of the mitre setting. It may
