WARNING! To avoid injury, after completing a cut and releasing the trigger
switch, wait and confirm the blade has stopped before raising the cutting
head. To avoid injury, check and tighten the arbor bolt periodically.
9.2
Sliding carriage system (Fig. 22)
For chop cutting operations on small workpieces, slide the cutting head assembly
completely toward the rear of the unit and tighten the carriage lock knob (1).
To cut wide boards up to 8 in., the carriage lock knob (1) must be loosened to allow the
cutting head to slide freely.
9.3
Mitre cut (Fig. 23)
When a mitre cut is required, unlock the mitre table by turning the mitre handle (1)
counterclockwise.
While holding the mitre handle, lift up on the positive stop locking lever (2).
Rotate the mitre table to the right or left with the mitre handle.
When the table is in the desired position, as shown on the mitre scale (3), release the
positive stop locking lever and tighten the mitre handle. The table is now locked at the
desired angle. Positive stops are provided at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45°.
IMPORTANT: Always tighten the mitre tablelock handle before performing
every cutting operation.
9.4
Bevel cut (Fig. 24)
When a bevel cut is required, loosen the bevel lock handle (1) by turning it clockwise.
Tilt the cutting head to the desired angle, as shown on the bevel scale (2).
The blade can be positioned at any angle, from a 90° straight cut (0° on the scale) to a 45°
left bevel. Tighten the bevel lock handle (1) to lock the cutting head in position. Positive
stops are provided at 0° and 45°.
9.5
Compound cut (Fig. 25)
A compound cut is the combination of a mitre and a bevel cut simultaneously.
Loosen the bevel lock handle (1) and position the cutting head at the desired bevel
position. Lock the bevel lock handle (1).
Loosen the mitre handle (2). Lift up the positive stop locking lever (3) and position the
table at the desired angle. Release the positive stop locking lever (3) and lock the mitre
handle (2).
9.6
Slide cutting wide boards (Fig. 26)
CAUTION: Always use a work clamp to maintain control and reduce the risk
of workpiece damage and personal injury.
WARNING! To avoid injury: 1) Let the blade reach full speed before cutting.
This will help reduce the risk of a thrown workpiece. 2) Do not make
crosscuts by lowering the blade and pulling the saw head through the wood
toward you. The blade may try to climb up on top of the workpiece, causing
the cutting assembly and spinning blade to kick back forcefully.
Unlock the carriage lock handle (1) and allow the cutting head assembly to move freely.
Set both the desired bevel angle and/or the mitre angle and lock into position.
Use a hold down clamp (2) to secure the workpiece (3).
