Miter cutting

Refertothepreviouslycovered"Adjustingthemiter

angle".

Bevel cut

WARNING: After setting the blade for a bevel

cut, before operating the tool ensure that the saw

head and blade will have free travel throughout

the entire range of the intended cut. Interruption

of the saw head or blade travel during the cutting

operation may result in kickback and serious personal

injury.

WARNING: While making a bevel cut keep

hands out of the path of the blade. The angle of the

blade may confuse the operator as to the actual blade

path while cutting and contact with the blade will

resultinseriouspersonalinjury

WARNING: The blade should not be raised

until it has come to a complete stop. During a

bevel cut the piece cut off may come to rest against

the blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating the

cut-offpiecemaybeejectedbythebladecausing

the material to fragment which may result in serious

personalinjury.

WARNING: Always remove sub-fence when

performing bevel cuts. Failure to do so may cause

seriousinjury.

1. Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the

bevelangle(Refertothepreviouslycovered"Adjusting

thebevelangle").Besuretoretightentheleverrmlyto

secure the selected bevel angle safely.

2. Secure the workpiece with the vise.

3. Switch on the tool without the blade making any

contact and wait until the blade attains full speed.

4. Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-

tion while applying pressure in parallel with the blade to

cut the workpiece.

5. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and

wait until the blade has come to a complete stop

before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.

NOTICE: When pressing down the handle, apply

pressure in parallel with the blade. If a force is

applied perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pres-

sure direction is changed during a cut, the precision

of the cut will be impaired.

Compound cutting

Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel

angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle

is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be

performed at the angle shown in the table.

Miter angle Bevel angle

Left and right 45° Left and right 0° - 45°

Right 52° Left 20° - Right 45°

Left 52° Left 45° - Right 20°

When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press

cutting", "Miter cutting" and "Bevel cut" explanations.

When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer blocks or pieces

ofscrapasshownintheguretopreventdeformationofthealu-

minum. Use a cutting lubricant when cutting the aluminum extru-

sion to prevent build-up of the aluminum material on the blade.

CAUTION:

Never attempt to cut thick or round

aluminum extrusions. Thick aluminum extrusions

may come loose during operation and round alumi-

numextrusionscannotbesecuredrmlywiththistool.

Cutting repetitive lengths

When cutting several pieces of stock to the same

length, ranging from 200 mm to 330 mm, use the set

plate (optional accessory). Install the set plate on the

holder(optionalaccessory)asshowninthegure.

►Fig.49: 1. Set plate 2. Holder 3. Screw

Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either the left

or right side of the groove in the kerf board, and while hold-

ingtheworkpiece,movethesetplateushagainsttheend

of the workpiece. Then secure the set plate with the screw.

When the set plate is not used, loosen the screw and

turn the set plate out of the way.

Carrying tool

Stopper pin is only for carrying and

storage purposes and should never be used for any

cutting operations. The use of the stopper pin for cutting

operations may cause unexpected movement of the saw

bladeresultinginkickbackandseriouspersonalinjury.

CAUTION: Always secure all moving portions

before carrying the tool. If portions of the tool move

while being carried loss of control or balance may

occurresultinginpersonalinjury.

1. Remove the battery cartridge.

2. Secure the blade at 0° bevel angle and the turn

base at the full right miter angle position.

►Fig.50: 1. Turn base

3. Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered

position by pushing in the stopper pin.

4. Carry the tool by holding the handle.
