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.
CAUTION:
Firmly tighten the knob clockwise so that the
•
carriage will not move during operation. Insufficient
tightening may cause unexpected kickback of the
blade. Possible serious PERSONAL INJURY may
result.
2. Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide workpieces)
002023
Loosen the knob counterclockwise so that the
carriage can slide freely. Secure the workpiece
with the 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 down 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.
CAUTION:
Whenever performing the slide cut, FIRST PULL
•
THE CARRIAGE TOWARD YOU FULLY and press
down the handle to the fully lowered position, then
PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE
FENCE. NEVER START THE CUT WITH THE
CARRIAGE NOT FULLY PULLED TOWARD YOU.
If you perform the slide cut without pulling the
carriage fully or if you perform the slide cut toward
your direction,
unexpectedly with the potential to cause serious
PERSONAL INJURY.
Never perform the slide cut with the handle locked
•
in the lowered position by pressing the stopper pin.
Never loosen the knob which secures the carriage
•
while the blade is rotating. This may cause serious
injury.

3. Miter cutting
Refer to the previously covered "Adjusting the
miter angle".
4. Bevel cut
002024
Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the
bevel angle (Refer to the previously covered
"Adjusting the bevel angle"). Be sure to retighten
the lever firmly to secure the selected bevel angle
safely. Secure the workpiece with a vise. Make
sure the carriage is pulled all the way back toward
the operator. Switch on the tool without the blade
making any contact and wait until the blade attains
full speed. Then gently lower the handle to the fully
lowered position while applying pressure in parallel
with the blade and PUSH THE CARRIAGE
TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE TO CUT THE
WORKPIECE. When the cut is completed, switch
THE off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS
COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning
the blade to its fully elevated position.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the blade will move down to
•
bevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep hands out
of path of saw blade.
During a bevel cut, it may create a condition
•
whereby the piece cut off will come to rest against
the side of the blade. If the blade is raised while the
blade is still rotating, this piece may be caught by
the blade, causing fragments to be scattered which
is dangerous. The blade should be raised ONLY
after the blade has come to a complete stop.
When pressing down the handle, apply pressure in
•
parallel with the blade. If a force is applied
perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pressure
direction is changed during a cut, the precision of
the cut will be impaired.
Always set the sub-fence to the left position when
•
performing left bevel cuts.
5. Compound cutting
Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel
angle is made at the same time in which a miter
angle is being cut on a workpiece. Compound
cutting can be performed at angle shown in the
