OPERATION
NOTICE:
1. Press cutting (cutting small workpieces)
• Before use, be sure to release the handle from the lowered position by pulling the stopper pin.
• Do not apply excessive pressure on the handle when cutting. Too much force may result in
overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency. Push down handle with only as much
force as is necessary for smooth cutting and without significant decrease in blade speed.
• Gently press down the handle to perform the cut. If the handle is pressed down with force or if
lateral force is applied, the blade will vibrate and leave a mark (saw mark) in the workpiece and
the precision of the cut will be impaired.
• During a slide cut, gently push the carriage toward the guide fence without stopping. If the
carriage movement is stopped during the cut, a mark will be left in the workpiece and the
precision of the cut will be impaired.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece, etc. before the switch is
turned on. Turning the tool on with the blade in contact with the workpiece may result in
kickback and serious personal injury
• Push the carriage toward the guide fence fully and tighten the locking screw clockwise to
secure the carriage.
• Secure the workpiece correctly with the proper type of vise.
• Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact and wait until the blade attains full
speed before lowering.
• Then gently lower the handle to the fully lowered position to cut the workpiece.
• When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS
COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
WARNING
: Firmly tighten the knob clockwise so that the carriage will not move during
operation. Insufficient tightening of the knob may cause possible kickback which may result
in serious personal injury
2. Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide workpieces)
• Loosen the locking screw counterclockwise so that the carriage can slide freely.
• Secure the workpiece with the proper type of vise.
• Pull the carriage toward you fully.
• Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact and wait until the blade attains
full speed.
• Press the handle down and PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE
AND THROUGH THE WORKPIECE.
• When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS
COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
WARNING:
Whenever performing a slide cut, first pull the carriage full towards you and press the handle
all the way down, then push the carriage toward the guide fence. Never start the cut with the
carriage not pulled fully toward you. If you perform the slide cut without the carriage pulled
fully toward you unexpected kickback may occur and serious personal injury may result.
Never attempt to perform a slide cut by pulling the carriage towards you. Pulling the carriage
towards you while cutting may cause unexpected kickback resulting in possible serious
personal injury.
Never perform the slide cut with the handle locked in the lowered position.
Never loosen the locking screw which secures the carriage while the blade is rotating. A loose
carriage while cutting may cause unexpected kickback resulting in possible in serious
personal injury.
