Operation

Switching on and off

1. Connect the plug to the power supply.
2. Depress the ON button.
3. To switch off, depress the OFF button.

NOTE.

1. The saw must be connected to an earthed outlet and

should be operated on a residual current device (RCD)
of 30 mA capacity.

2. Extension leads must have a minimum lead cross

section of 3 x 0.75 mm (240V).

3. The saw is automatically turned off in the event of a

power failure. You will need to press the ON button
again to restart the saw (only on some models).

Using the rip fence

The rip fence allows you to make parallel cuts in a sheet
of wood, all at the same width.

WARNING.

Always ensure that the saw is switched off

and unplugged from the power supply before making any
adjustments.
1. Adjust the rip fence to the required width and secure it

in position with the locking handle.

2. Ensure that the fence rests against the wood along its

entire length to give a consistent parallel cut.

Cutting

NOTES.

1. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw cutting.

Do not force the cutting.
Allow the blade and the saw
to do the work.

2. When cutting at an angle

ensure that the rip fence is
located on the right hand side
of the blade.

3. When cutting rod, use a jig

or fixture to prevent the
workpiece from turning.

4. When cutting boards vertically,

use a suitable push block to
feed the workpiece into the
saw.
