during the cut. Position the material so that you will be cutting the thinnest cross section, as
shown in Figure V. Figure W illustrates the wrong way to cut these extrusions.
Use a stick wax cutting lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick wax directly to the saw

blade
before cutting. Never apply stick wax to a moving blade.
The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial mill supply houses, provides proper
lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.
Be sure to properly secure workpiece.

Refer to saw Blades under Accessories for correct saw blade.
Bowed Material (Fig. X, Y)
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure X and never like that
shown in Figure Y. Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the
completion of the cut.

Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood and ClAMPED OR
hElD FiRMlY TO ThE FEnCE TO KEEP iT FROM ROlling. This is extremely important when
making angle cuts.
Cutting Large Material (Fig. Z)
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit beneath the lower guard.
If this occurs, simply place your right thumb on the upper side of the guard and roll the guard up
just enough to clear the workpiece, as shown in Figure Z. Avoid doing this as much as possible,
but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut. NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR
OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect
it from power source before 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 polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certain chemicals.
1. All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and need no further maintenance.
2. Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around AND UNDER the base and the
rotary table. Even though slots are provided to allow debris to pass through, some dust
will accumulate.
3. The brushes are designed to give you several years of use. To replace the brushes return the
tool to the nearest service center for repair. A list of service center locations is packed with
your tool.
Removing and Replacing Belt (Fig. AA)
The belt is designed to last the life of the tool. However, abuse of the tool could cause the belt
to fail.
If the blade does not turn when the motor is running, the belt has failed. To inspect or replace the

wear or failure. Check belt tension by squeezing the belt as shown in Figure AA. The belt halves
should almost touch when squeezing firmly with the thumb and index finger. To adjust the tension,
loosen, but do not remove, the four crosshead screws shown. Then rotate the set screw on the
top of the motor plate casting until the proper tension is achieved. Tighten the four screws
securely and replace the belt cover.
NOTICE: Overtightening the belt will cause premature motor failure.
