Switching On And Off; Making A Cut; Making A Pocket Cut - GMC DLS2000MCF Manual Del Usuario

Note. Always make a trial cut in a scrap piece of material
along a guideline to determine how much you should
offset the blade from the guideline to make an accurate
cut.

Switching on and off

1. Connect the plug to the power supply.
2. Depress the lock-off button (5) (Fig. F) and squeeze the
trigger switch (4) (Fig. G).

3. The blade will take approximately 2 seconds to reach
full speed.
CAUTION. Ensure you have a firm grip on the handles
with both hands at start up as the tool will produce
kickback.

Making a cut

1. Mark the line of cut on the work piece.
2. Adjust the depth of cut and bevel angle as required.
3. When making 90° cross or rip
cuts, align your line of cut with
the outer blade guide notch on
the base of the saw (Fig. H).
4. When making 45° bevel cuts,
align your line of cut with the
inner blade guide notch on the
base of the saw.
5. Rest the front edge of the
base on the work piece
(Fig. I).Making a cut

6. Start the motor by depressing
the lock-off button (5) and
squeezing the trigger switch
(4).
Note. Always let the blade
reach full speed (approximately
2 seconds) before you begin to
cut into the work piece.
7. Slowly push the saw forward
using both hands (Fig. J).

8. When making a cut always
use steady, even pressure.
Forcing the saw causes rough
cuts and could shorten the
life of the saw or cause
kickback. Allow the blade and
the saw to do the work.
9. After completing your cut, release the trigger switch
and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not
remove the saw from the work piece while the blade is
moving.
Note. Since blade thickness varies, always make a trial
cut in scrap material along the guideline to determine how
much, if any, the guideline must be offset to get an
accurate cut.

Making a pocket cut

1. Adjust the depth of cut as required.
2. Adjust the bevel setting to 0°.
3. Raise the lower blade guard
lever (13) to expose the saw
H
blade and firmly rest the front
of the base flat against the
work piece with the rear
handle raised so the blade
does not touch the work
piece (Fig. K).
