OPERATION
WARNING
To make sawing easier and safer, always
maintain proper control of the saw. Loss of
control could cause an accident resulting in
possible serious injury.
DANGER
When lifting the saw from the workpiece, the
blade is exposed on the underside of the saw
until the lower blade guard closes. Make sure
the lower blade guard is closed before setting the
saw down.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints.
Q
Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
Q
Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while
making a cut.
Q
Support the workpiece so that the cut (kerf) is always
to your side.
Q
Support the workpiece near the cut.
Q
Clamp the workpiece securely so that the workpiece
will not move during the cut.
Q
Always place the saw on the workpiece that is
supported, not the "cut off" piece.
Q
Place the workpiece with the "good" side down.
Q
Draw a guideline along the desired line of cut before
beginning your cut.
CROSS CUTTING/RIP CUTTING (Fig. 15)
When making a cross cut or rip cut, align the line of cut
with the outer blade guide notch on the base.
Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut
in scrap material along a guideline to determine how
much, if any, you must offset the guideline to produce an
accurate cut.
NOTE: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline
is the amount you should offset the guide.
RIP CUTTING (Fig. 16)
Use a guide when making long or wide rip cuts with the saw.
Q
Secure the workpiece.
Q
Clamp a straight edge to the workpiece using
Cclamps.
Q
Saw along the straight edge to achieve a straight rip cut.
NOTE: Do not bind the blade in the cut.

A width of cut scale has been provided on the base of the
saw. When making straight cross cuts or rip cuts, the scale
can be used to measure up to 120mm on the right side of
the blade, and up to 30mm on the left side of the blade.
BEVEL CUTTING (Fig. 18-20)
Q
Align the line of cut with the inner blade guide notch
on the base when making 45° bevel cuts.
Q
Make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to
determine how much you should offset the guideline
on the cutting material.
Q
Adjust the angle of the cut to any desired setting
between zero and 50°. Refer to Adjusting the Bevel
Setting next.
ADJUSTING THE BEVEL SETTING (Fig. 19)
Q
Loosen the bevel adjustment knob.
Q
Raise the motor housing end of the saw until you
reach the desired angle setting on the bevel scale.
Q
Tighten the bevel adjustment knob securely.
WARNING
Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel
adjustment knob securely tightened can result in
serious injury.
MAKING A BEVEL CUT (Fig. 19)
Q
Hold the saw firmly with both hands as shown.
Q
Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece.
Q
Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed.
Q
Guide the saw into the workpiece and make the cut.
Q
Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
Q
Lift the saw from the workpiece.
POCKET CUTTING (Fig. 21)
WARNING
Always adjust bevel setting to zero before making
a pocket cut. Attempting a pocket cut at any
other setting can result in loss of control of the
saw possibly causing serious injury.
Q
Adjust the bevel setting to zero.
Q
Set the blade to the correct blade depth setting.
Q
Swing the lower blade guard up using the lower blade
guard handle.
NOTE: Always raise the lower blade guard with the
handle to avoid serious injury.
Q
Hold the lower blade guard by the handle.
