To attach the fastener, align the top end of the fastener
with the triangular mark on the dust bag.
The use of the dust bag makes cutting operations
cleaner and dust collection easier. To attach the dust bag,
fit it onto the dust nozzle.
When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag
from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust
bag of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove
particles adhering to the insides which might hamper
further collection.
NOTE:
If you connect a vacuum cleaner to your saw, cleaner
operations can be performed.
Securing workpiece
WARNING:
•
It is extremely important to always secure the
workpiece correctly with the proper type of
vise.
Failure to do so may result in serious personal
injury and cause damage to the tool and/or the
workpiece.
•
After a cutting operation do not raise the blade
until it has come to a complete stop.
The raising
of a coasting blade may result in serious personal
injury and damage to the workpiece.
•
When cutting a workpiece that is longer than
the support base of the saw, the material
should be supported the entire length beyond
the support base and at the same height to
keep the material level.
Proper workpiece support
will help avoid blade pinch and possible kickback
which may result in serious personal injury. Do not
rely solely on the vertical vise and/or horizontal vise
to secure the workpiece. Thin material tends to sag.
Support workpiece over its entire length to avoid
blade pinch and possible KICKBACK.

The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on
either the left or right side of the guide fence or the holder
assembly (optional accessory). Insert the vise rod into
the hole in the guide fence or the holder assembly and
tighten the screw to secure the vise rod.
Position the vise arm according to the thickness and
shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by
tightening the screw. If the screw to secure the vise arm
contacts the guide fence, install the screw on the
opposite side of vise arm. Make sure that no part of the
tool contacts the vise when lowering the handle fully and
pulling or pushing the carriage all the way. If some part
contacts the vise, re-position the vise.
Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the
turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting
position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.
WARNING:
•
The workpiece must be secured firmly against
the turn base and guide fence with the vise
during all operations.
If the workpiece is not
properly secured against the fence the material
may move during the cutting operation causing
possible damage to the blade, causing the material
to be thrown and loss of control resulting in serious
personal injury.
