Workpiece
* When cutting a workpiece of 2-9/16" (65mm) height, adjust the lower limit position
of the motor head so that the gap between the lower edge of the motor head and
the workpiece will be 3/32" to 1/8" (2 to 3mm) at the lower limit position.
* 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.
* For slide cutting, follow the procedures indicated above in Fig. 28.
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 side handle when the motor head is lowered.
Loosen the slide securing knob (see Fig. 2), grip the handle and
slide the saw blade forward.
Then press down on the handle and slide the saw blade back to
cut the workpiece as indicated in Fig. 28. This facilitates cutting of
workpieces of up to 2-9/16" (65mm) in height and 12-1/4" (312mm)
in width.
wide: Workpieces of up to 2-15/16" (75mm) in height and up to
10-5/16" (262mm) in width can be cut in the same manner as
described in paragraph 6-(1) above.
