○ When the ink line and the laser line are overlapped, the
strength and weakness of light will change, resulting in a
stable cutting operation because you can easily discern the
conformity of lines. This ensures the minimum cutting errors.
○ In outdoor or near-the-window operations, it may
become diffi cult to observe the laser line due to the
sunlight. Under such circumstances, move to a place
that is not directly under the sunlight and engage in the
operation.
○ Check and make sure on a periodic basis if the position
of the laser line is in order. As regards the checking
method, draw a right-angle ink line on the workpiece with
the height of about 20 mm and the width of 150 mm, and
check that the laser line is in line with the ink line [The
deviation between the ink line and the laser line should
be less than the ink line width (0.5 mm)]. (Fig. 19)
9. Cutting operation
(1) As shown in Fig. 20 the width of the saw blade is the
width of the cut. Therefore, slide the workpiece to the
right (viewed from the operator's position) when length
is desired, or to the left when length
If a laser marker is used, align the laser line with the left
side of the saw blade, and then align the ink line with the
laser line.
(2) After turning on the switch and checking that the saw
blade is rotating at maximum speed, slowly push down
the handle while holding down the lever (A) and bring the
saw blade in the vicinity of the material to be cut.
(3) Once the saw blade contacts the workpiece, push the
handle down gradually to cut into the workpiece.
(4) After cutting the workpiece to the desired depth, turn the
power tool OFF and let the saw blade stop completely
before raising the handle from the workpiece to return it
to the full retract position.
CAUTION
○ For maximum dimensions
"SPECIFICATIONS" table.
○ Increased pressure on the handle will not increase the cutting
speed. On the contrary, too much pressure may result in
overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting effi ciency.
○ Confi rm that the trigger switch is turned OFF and the
power plug has been removed from the receptacle
whenever the tool is not in use.
○ Always turn the power off and let the saw blade stop
completely before raising the handle from the workpiece.
If the handle is raised while the saw blade is still rotating,
the cut-off piece may become jammed against the saw
blade causing fragments to scatter about dangerously.
○ Every time one cutting of deep-cutting operation is
fi nished, turn the switch off , and check that the saw
blade has stopped. Then raise the handle, and return it
to the full retract position.
○ Be absolutely sure to remove the cut material from the
top of the turntable, and then proceed to the next step.
○ Continued cutting operation can result in overload of the
motor. Touch the motor and if it's hot, stop your cutting
operation once and rest for 10 minutes or so, and then
restart your cutting operation.
10. Cutting narrow workpieces (Press cutting) (Fig. 21)
Slide the hinge down to holder (A), then tighten the
slide securing knob (Fig. 2). Lower the handle to cut
the workpiece. Using the power tool this way will permit
cutting of workpieces of up to 107 mm square.
11. Cutting large workpieces (Fig. 22, 23)
There may be case when a complete cutting cannot be
done depending on the height of workpiece. In this case,
mount an auxiliary board with the 6 mm fl at head screws
and the 6 mm nuts using the 7 mm holes on the fence
surface (two holes on each side). (Fig. 22)
Refer to "SPECIFICATIONS" for the thickness of the
auxiliary board.
is desired.
for cutting, refer to

NOTE
When cutting a workpiece exceeding 107 mm in height
in right-angle cutting or 70 mm in left bevel angle cutting
or 45 mm in right bevel angle cutting, adjust the lower
limit position so that the base of the motor head will not
come in contact with the workpiece.
To adjust the lower limit position of the saw blade, follow the
procedure (1) shown in Fig. 23.
(1) Lower the motor head, and turn the 8 mm depth
adjustment bolt and make adjustments so that there can
be a clearance of 2 mm to 3 mm between the lower limit
position of the motor head and the top of the workpiece
at the saw blade's lower limit position where the head of
the 8 mm depth adjustment bolt contacts the hinge.
12. Cutting wide workpieces (Slide cutting) (Fig. 24)
(1) Workpieces up to 107 mm high and 312 mm wide:
Loosen the slide securing knob (A) (Fig. 2), grip the
handle and slide the saw blade forward.
Then press down on the handle and slide the saw blade
back to cut the workpiece. This facilitates cutting of
workpieces of up to 107 mm in height and 312 mm in
width.
(2) Workpieces up to 120 mm high and 260 mm wide:
Workpieces of up to 120 mm in height and up to 260 mm
in width can be cut in the same manner as described in
paragraph 15-(1) above.
CAUTION
○ When cutting a workpiece of 120 mm height, adjust
the lower limit position of the motor head so that the
gap between the lower edge of the motor head and the
workpiece will be 2 to 3 mm at the lower limit position.
○ If the handle is pressed down with excessive or lateral
force, the saw blade may vibrate during the cutting
operation and cause unwanted cutting marks on the
workpiece, thus reducing the quality of the cut.
Accordingly, press the handle down gently and carefully.
○ In slide cutting, gently push the handle back (rearwards)
in a single, smooth operation. Stopping the handle
movement during the cut will cause unwanted cutting
marks on the workpiece.
WARNING
○ For slide cutting, follow the procedures.
Forward slide cutting (toward the operator) is very
dangerous because the saw blade could kick upward
from the workpiece. Therefore, always slide the handle
away from the operator.
○ Always return the carriage to the full rear position after
each crosscut operation in order to reduce the risk of
injury.
○ Never put your hand on the side handle during the
cutting operation because the saw blade comes close to
the side handle when the motor head is lowered.
13. Miter cutting procedures
(1) Loosen the side handle and pull up the lever for angle
stoppers. Then, adjust the turntable until the indicator
aligns with desired setting on the miter scale (Fig. 25).
(2) Re-tighten the side handle to secure the turntable in the
desired position.
(3) The miter scale indicates both the cutting angle on the
angle scale and the gradient on the grade scale.
(4) The gradient, which is the ratio of the height to the base
of the triangular section to be removed, may be used
for setting the miter scale instead of the cutting angle, if
desired.
Therefore, to cut a workpiece at a grade of 2/10, set the
indicator to position.
NOTE
○ Positive stops are provided at the right and left of the 0°
center setting, at 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of the indicator are
properly aligned.
