NOTE:
even though the angles are marked on the machine, it is always a good
idea to check them by making a trial cut. See Aligning Mitre and Bevel, below.
REMEMBER:
When making sliding cuts, pull sliding head towards you to the end in
the raised position. To start cut, lower sliding head down and into workpiece. Push
sliding head towards fence through workpiece to complete cut.
Inspect the cord regularly and have it replaced by an authorized repair facility if
it is damaged.
Check the brushes occasionally (after about 50 hours of use) and replace if
worn. Unplug the tool. The brushes can be replaced by removing the motor
back cap. The brushes and their springs could jump out of the holders- be
careful not to lose them. Inspect the brushes. If the contact surface is not
smooth, or it is worn, or heavily used, replace both brushes at once. Insert the
new brushes and springs in their holders and re-fasten the cap.
The plastic kerf plate (
K , fig.1
) should be replaced if damaged to
reduce the risk of chips lodging in the slot and catching in the blade.
Keep the vents clear of dust and debris. This will help prevent possible electri
-
cal shorts and ensure proper cooling.
Keep the tool housing and handle clean and free of oil and grease using mild
soap and a damp (not wet) cloth.
Slot Cut:
To set the cutting depth of your saw blade, adjust the stop plate located on the sliding
handle. When adjusting, loosen the hex bolt slightly with a box wrench. Push the
sliding handle to the end towards the fence and lower the sliding handle. When the
blade reaches desired depth, adjust the stop plate and firmly tighten the hex bolt to
fix stop plate securely. Make sure that when lowering the handle completely, the saw
blade does not rest bellow the desired cutting depth. After adjusting the depth of the
saw blade, make two parallel sliding cuts into the workpiece. Remove the existing
material in the groove with a flat chisel.
USING DEPTH STOP SCREW
(
Fig.3)
1. For making a kerfing or rabbet cut which does not cut through the work piece, use
the depth stop screw (1) in combination with the depth stop lever (2), to control the
depth of the cut.
2. To limit blade assembly travel, slide the depth stop lever (2) out (away from blade),
then turn the depth stop screw (1) to adjust the depth of cut. Rotate the screw:
Clockwise = the shallower cut will be
Counter clockwise = the deeper cut will be
3. After the desired cut has been made, return the depth stop lever to its normal
position.
