Adjusting the angle pointer
When the angles are
corrected on the saw, it is
wise to adjust the pointer.
1. Set the angle as desired
and loosen the screw
securing the pointer.
2. Move the pointer to the
corresponding angle and
tighten the screw.
Switching on and off
1. Connect the plug to the
power supply.
2. To switch on the saw,
squeeze the trigger
switch (3).
3. When you release the
trigger, the saw turns off.
CAUTION. Allow the blade to
come to a complete standstill
before setting the saw down.
Making a cut
1. Mark the line of cut on the
work piece.
2. Adjust the depth of cut and
bevel angle as required.
3. When making 90° cross or
rip cuts, align your line of
cut with the outer blade
guide notch on the base of
the saw.
4. When making 45° bevel cuts,
align your line of cut with
the inner blade guide notch
on the base of the saw.
5. Rest the front edge of the
base on the workpiece.
6. Start the motor by squeezing
the trigger switch (3).
7. Always let the blade reach
full speed (approximately 2
seconds) before you begin to
cut into the workpiece.
8. Slowly push the saw forward
using both hands.
9. When making a cut always
use steady, even pressure.
Forcing the saw causes rough
cuts and could shorten the
life of the saw or cause
kickback. Allow the blade
and the saw to do the work.
10. After completing your cut,
release the trigger switch
and allow the blade to
come to a complete stop.
Do not remove the saw
from the work piece while
the blade is moving.
