APPLICATION ADVICE
•
Special workpieces
- always support the free ends of a long workpiece h
- ensure that curved or round workpieces are especially
secured against slipping j
- at the cutting line no gap may exist between the
workpiece and the fence or saw table
•
For working with floor mouldings illustration k can be
used as reference
•
Always face the good side of the workpiece down to
ensure minimum splintering
•
Only use sharp saw blades of the correct type
- quality of cut improves by the number of teeth
- carbide tipped blades stay sharp up to 30 times longer
than ordinary blades
MAINTENANCE / SERVICE
•
Always keep tool and cord clean (especially the
ventilation slots at the back-end of the motor housing)
•
Develop a regular check to make sure the lower guard is
working properly. Clean the lower guard of any sawdust
build up with a damp cloth.
! disconnect the plug before cleaning
- lift the lower guard to the fully open position and
release it; if it does not immediately and fully close it
should be checked by an after-sales service centre for
SKIL power tools
•
Clean saw blade immediately after use (especially from
resin and glue)
! the saw blade becomes very hot during use; do
not touch it before it has cooled down
•
If the tool should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should
be carried out by an after-sales service centre for SKIL
power tools
- send the tool undismantled together with proof of
purchase to your dealer or the nearest SKIL service
station (addresses as well as the service diagram of the
tool are listed on www.skil.com)
•
Be aware that damage due to overload or improper
handling of the tool will be excluded from the warranty
