1. Cutting aluminum extrusion

When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer blocks

or pieces of scrap as shown in Fig. 50 to prevent defor-

mation of the aluminum. Use a cutting lubricant when

cutting the aluminum extrusion to prevent build-up of the

aluminum material on the blade.

CAUTION:

• Never attempt to cut thick or round aluminum extru-

sions. Thick aluminum extrusions may come loose dur-

ing operation and round aluminum extrusions cannot

be secured firmly with this tool.

2. Groove cutting (Fig. 51)

A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as follows:

Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using the

adjusting screw and the stopper arm to limit the cutting

depth of the blade. Refer to “Stopper arm” section

described previously.

After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade, cut

parallel grooves across the width of the workpiece using

a slide (push) cut as shown in the figure. Then remove

the workpiece material between the grooves with a

chisel. Do not attempt to perform this type of cut using

wide (thick) blades or with a dado blade. Possible loss of

control and injury may result.

CAUTION:

• Be sure to return the stopper arm to the original posi-

tion when performing other than groove cutting.

Carrying tool

Make sure that the tool is unplugged. Secure the blade at

0° bevel angle and the turn base at right miter angle fully.

Secure the slide poles so that the lower slide pole is

locked in the position of the carriage fully pulled to opera-

tor and the upper poles are locked in the position of the

carriage fully pushed forward to the guide fence (refer to

the section titled “Slide lock adjustment”.) Lower the han-

dle fully and lock it in the lowered position by pushing in

the stopper pin. (Fig. 52)

Carry the tool by holding both sides of the tool base as

shown in the figure. If you remove the holders, dust bag,

etc., you can carry the tool more easily. (Fig. 53)

CAUTION:

• Always secure all moving portions before carrying the

tool.

• Stopper pin is for carrying and storage purposes only

and not for any cutting operations.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or

maintenance.

WARNING:

• Always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean for the

best and safest performance.

Adjusting the cutting angle

This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at the factory,

but rough handling may have affected the alignment. If

your tool is not aligned properly, perform the following:

1. Miter angle

Push the carriage toward the guide fence and tighten the

locking screw clockwise and pull the lock lever toward

yourself to secure the carriage.

Turn the grip counterclockwise which secures the turn

base. Turn the turn base so that the pointer points to 0°

on the miter scale. Then turn the turn base slightly clock-

wise and counterclockwise to seat the turn base in the 0°

miter notch. (Leave as it is if the pointer does not point to

0°.) Loosen the hex socket bolts securing the guide fence

using the socket wrench.

Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position

by pushing in the stopper pin. Square the side of the

blade with the face of the guide fence using a triangular

rule, try-square, etc. Then securely tighten the hex

socket bolts on the guide fence in the order from the right

side. (Fig. 54)

Make sure that the pointer points to 0° on the miter scale.

If the pointer does not point to 0°, loosen the screw which

secures the pointer and adjust the pointer so that it will

point to 0°. (Fig. 55)

2. Bevel angle

Push the latch lever forward fully to release the positive

stops.

1) 0° bevel angle

Push the carriage toward the guide fence and

tighten the locking screw clockwise and pull the lock

lever toward yourself to secure the carriage. Lower

the handle fully and lock it in the lowered position by

pushing in the stopper pin. Loosen the lever at the

rear of the tool. (Fig. 56)

Turn the hex socket bolt on the right side of the arm

holder two or three revolutions counterclockwise to

tilt the blade to the right. (Fig. 57)

Carefully square the side of the blade with the top

surface of the turn base using the triangular rule, try-

square, etc. by turning the hex socket bolt on the

right side of the arm holder clockwise. Then tighten

the lever securely. (Fig. 58)

Make sure that the two pointers on the arm holder

point to each 0° on the bevel scale on the arm

holder. If they do not point to 0°, loosen the screws

which secure the pointers and adjust them so that

they will point to 0°. (Fig. 59)
