WARNING
● 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 or deep-cutting operation is
fi nished, turn the trigger 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 at once and rest for 10 minutes or so, and then
restart your cutting operation.
4. Cutting wide workpieces (Slide cutting)
(1) Workpieces up to 89 mm high and 292 mm wide:
Loosen the slide securing knob (see Fig. 1), grip the
handle and slide the saw blade forward.
Then press down on the handle and slide the saw blade
backward to cut the workpiece as indicated in Fig. 24.
This facilitates cutting of workpieces of up to 89 mm in
height and 292 mm in width.
(2) Workpieces up to 64 mm high and 318 mm wide:
Workpieces of up to 64 mm in height and up to 318 mm
in width can be cut in the same manner as described in
paragraph 4-(1) above on page 46.
CAUTION
● 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 indicated above
in Fig. 24.
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 miter lock handle when the motor head is lowered.
5. Bevel cutting procedures
WARNING
The sub fences must be extended when making any
bevel cut. Failure to extend the sub fences will not allow
enough space for the blade to pass through which could
result in serious injury. At extreme miter or bevel angles
the saw blade may also contact the fence.
(1) When a bevel cut is required, loosen the bevel lock
handle. (Fig. 25)
(2) Tilt the cutting head to the desired angle while pulling the
set pin (A), as shown on the bevel scale.
(3) The blade can be positioned at any angle, from a 90°
straight cut (0° on the scale) to a 45°. Tighten the bevel
lock handle to lock the cutting head in position. Positive
stops are provided at 0°, 33.9° and 45°.
NOTE
The saw comes with a 33.9° set pin (A) for setting up
crown moulding cuts when the angle of the walls equals
90°.
(4) Turn the laser guide on and position the workpiece on
the table for pre-alignment of your cut.
NOTE
If 48° left bevel is necessary, slide the bevel stop plate
(A) clockwise away from the stop block (A) to achieve
48° left bevel. (see Fig. 26)
If 48° right bevel is necessary, slide the bevel stop plate
(B) counterclockwise away from the stop block (B) to
achieve 48° right bevel.
Also, use anchor plate. (see Fig. 11-b)
WARNING
When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side
of the blade, the short cut-off portion will come to rest
on the right or left side of the saw blade. 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.
When stopping the bevel cutting operation halfway, start
cutting after pulling back the motor head to the initial
position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the
lower guard to be caught in the cutting groove of the
workpiece and to contact the saw blade.
CAUTION
● If not tightened fi rmly enough the motor head might
suddenly move or slip, causing injuries. Be sure to
tighten the motor head section enough so it will not
move.
● Always check that the bevel lock handle is secured and
the motor head is clamped. If you attempt angle cutting
without clamping the motor head, then the motor head
might shift unexpectedly causing injuries.
6. 33.9° Set pin (A) for crown mouldings (Fig. 25)
(1) Push the bevel set pin (A) in towards the rear of the
machine.
(2) Loosen the bevel locking handle.
(3) Tilt the cutting head until the set pin (A) stops the bevel
angle at 33.9° on the bevel scale.
(4) Tighten the bevel locking handle to lock the cutting head
in position. (see Fig. 25)
7. Miter cutting procedures (Fig. 27)
(1) Unlock the miter table by lifting up on the miter lock
handle.
(2) While pressing down on the positive stop lock button,
grasp the miter lock handle and rotate the table left or
right to the desired angle.
(3) Once the desired miter angle is achieved, release the
positive stop lock button and press down on the miter
lock handle to secure the table into position.
(4) If the desired miter angle is NOT one of the nine positive
stops noted below, please see the Miter detent override
button section on Fig. 1.
(5) Turn the laser guide on and position the workpiece on
the table for pre-alignment of your cut.
CAUTION
Always check that the miter lock handle is secured and
the turntable is clamped.
If you attempt angle cutting without clamping the
turntable, then the turntable might shift unexpectedly
causing injuries.
NOTE
○ Positive stops are provided at the right and left of the 0°
center setting, at 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of the indicator are
properly aligned.
