Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.
WARNING
To avoid kickback, make sure one side of the workpiece
is securely against the rip fence during any rip cut, and
hold the workpiece firmly against the mitre gauge during
any mitre cut.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt compound mitre cuts, with blade beveled
and mitre fence angled, until you are thoroughly familiar
with the basic cuts and understand how to avoid kickback.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to make any cuts not covered here.
WARNING
Using rip fence as a cutoff gauge when cross cutting will
result in kickback which can cause serious personal injury.
WARNING
NEVER make freehand cuts (cuts without mitre gauge or
rip fence). Unguided workpieces can result in serious
injury.
WARNING
Never make through cuts without the blade guard in place.
Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious
personal injury.
13. Cutting tips
◌ The kerf (the cut made by the blade in the wood) will be
wider than the blade to avoid overheating or binding.
Make allowance for the kerf when measuring wood.
◌ Make sure the kerf is made on the waste side of the
measuring line.
◌ Cut the wood with the finish side up.
◌ Knock out loose knots before making cut.
◌ Always provide proper support for wood as it comes out
of saw.
14. Making cuts
◌ Stand slightly to the side of blade path to reduce the
chance of injury should kickback occur.
◌ Use mitre gauge when making cross, mitre, bevel and
compound mitre cuts. To secure angle, lock mitre gauge
in place by twisting lock knob clockwise. ALWAYS
tighten lock knob securely in place before use.
WARNING
Never use the fence and mitre gauge together. This may
cause a kickback condition and injury to the operator.
15. Types of cuts (Fig. 26)
There are six basic cuts: a) the cross cut, b) the rip cut,
c) the mitre cut, d) the bevel cross cut, e) the bevel rip
cut, and f) the compound (bevel) mitre cut.
16. Making a cross cut (Fig. 27)
◌ Remove rip fence.
◌ Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.
◌ Set mitre gauge (18) to 0° and tighten lock knob (15).
◌ Make sure wood is clear of blade before turning on saw.
◌ To turn saw on, press switch button.
◌ Let blade build up to full speed before moving workpiece
into blade.
◌ Hand closest to blade should be placed on mitre gauge
lock knob and hand farthest from blade should be placed
on workpiece. Feed workpiece into blade.
◌ When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing workpiece.
17. Making a rip cut (Fig. 28)
◌ Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.
◌ Unlock the fence rail lock lever and slide rip fence (4)
to desired distance from blade for cut.
◌ Lock the fence rail lock lever.
◌ Make sure wood is clear of blade before turning on saw.
◌ When ripping a long workpiece, slide the outfeed support
to fully extend.
◌ To turn saw on, press switch button.
◌ Position workpiece flat on table with edge flush against
rip fence (4). Let blade build up to full speed before
feeding workpiece into blade.
◌ Once blade has made contact with workpiece, use hand
closest to rip fence for guidance. Make sure edge of
workpiece remains in solid contact with both rip fence
and surface of table. If ripping a narrow piece, use push
stick and/or push blocks to move piece through cut and
past blade.
◌ When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing workpiece.
WARNING
When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force
between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick
when the distance between the fence and the saw blade
is less than 150 mm, and use a push block when this
distance is less than 50 mm. Cutting aids will keep your
hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.
18. Making a mitre cut (Fig. 29)
◌ Remove rip fence.
◌ Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.
◌ Set mitre gauge (18) to the desired angle and tighten
lock knob (15).
◌ Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning
on the saw.
◌ Turn the saw on.
◌ Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the
workpiece into the blade.
◌ Hand closest to blade should be placed on mitre gauge
lock knob and hand farthest from blade should be placed
on workpiece. Feed workpiece into blade.
◌ When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing workpiece.
19. Making a bevel cross cut (Fig. 30)
◌ Remove rip fence.
◌ Unlock bevel lock lever.
◌ Adjust bevel angle to desired setting.
◌ Lock bevel lock lever.
◌ Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.
◌ Set mitre gauge (18) to 0° and tighten lock knob (15).
◌ Make sure wood is clear of blade before turning on saw.
◌ Turn saw on.
◌ Let blade build up to full speed before moving workpiece
into blade.
◌ Hand closest to blade should be placed on mitre gauge
lock knob and hand farthest from blade should be placed
on workpiece. Feed workpiece into blade.
◌ When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing workpiece.
