Hints for optimum use
As some splintering along the line of cut on the top side of
u
the workpiece cannot be avoided, cut on the side where
splintering is acceptable.
Where splintering is to be minimised, e.g. when cutting
u
laminates, clamp a piece of plywood onto the top of the
workpiece.

u
Withdraw the saw so the cutting line (27) becomes visible.
u
While keeping the saw in this position, loosen the sight
u
guide on the saw shoe as shown.
Align the 0° mark (25) on the sight guide with the cutting
u
line (27). When adjusting for 45° bevel cuts, align the 45°
mark (26) on the sight guide with the cutting line.
