Troubleshooting - Stanley FATMAX SFMCS701 Manual Del Usuario

Minute changes in the mitre angle can be made without af-
fecting the bevel angle. This way, when corners other than 90º
are encountered, the saw can be quickly and easily adjusted
for them.
Instructions for cutting crown moulding angled
between the fence and base of the saw for all cuts
This saw can cut up to 9/16" (14 mm) x 3-5/8" (92 mm) crown
moulding nested.
Angle the moulding so the bottom of the moulding (part
u
which goes against the wall when installed) is against the
fence (11) and the top of the moulding is resting on the
saw table (36), as shown in figure T2.
The angled "flats" on the back of the moulding must rest
u
squarely on the fence and saw table (36).

Special Cuts
Never make any cut unless the material is secured on the
table and against the fence.
Bowed material (fig. U1, U2)
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in
figure U1 and never like that shown in figure U2. Positioning
the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near
the completion of the cut.
Cutting round material
Rounded material should be clamped or held firmly to the
fence to keep It from rolling. This is extremely important when
making angle cuts.
Cutting large material (fig. V)
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too
large to fit beneath the lower guard. To clear the guard over
the wood, with the saw off and your right hand on the operat-
ing handle, place your right thumb outside of the upper portion
of the guard and roll the guard up just enough to clear the
wood, as shown in figure V. Release the guard prior to starting
the motor. The guard mechanism will function properly during
the cut. Only do this when necessary.
NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD
OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.
Maintenance
Warning! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn
tool off and remove the battery pack before transporting,
making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or
accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Warning! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO
NOT touch the sharp points on the blade with fingers or hands
while performing any maintenance.
DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or
aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic guard. The polycarbon-
ate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certain
chemicals.
