13. Depress the spindle lock

button (25) and replace the

the flat washer and blade bolt.

14. Use the hex key to tighten

the blade bolt securely

(tighten in an anti-clockwise

direction).

15. Lower the blade guard, hold

the rotating lower blade guard (9) and blade bolt cover

(11) in position and tighten the fixing screw (fig. f).

16. Replace the guard retraction arm and secure onto the

rotating blade guard.

17. Check that the blade guard operates correctly and

covers the blade as the saw arm is lowered.

18. Connect the saw to the power supply and run the blade

to make certain that it is operating correctly.

Cross-cutting (without slide action)

When cutting a narrow piece of

wood it is not necessary to use

the slide mechanism. In these

cases ensure that the saw head

is pushed back and the slide lock

(22) is screwed down to prevent

the saw arm from sliding (fig. g).
A crosscut is made by cutting

across the grain of the

workpiece. A 90º crosscut is

made with the mitre table set at 0º. Mitre crosscuts are

made with the table set at some angle other than zero.
1. Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw arm (5)

to its full height.

2. Loosen the mitre locks (18).
3. Rotate the mitre table (16) until the pointer aligns with

the desired angle.

4. Retighten the mitre locks (18).

WARNING.

Be sure to tighten the mitre locks before making

a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving

during the cut and cause serious personal injury.
5. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge

securely against the fence (19). If the board is warped,

place the convex side against the fence (19). If the

concave side is placed against the fence, the board could

break and jam the blade.

6. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite

end of the timber with a roller stand or a work surface

that is level with the saw table.

7. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the

cutting operation to check that there are no problems.

8. Hold the operating handle (7) firmly and squeeze the switch

trigger (23). Allow the blade to

reach maximum speed.

9. Press the release latch (24)

(fig. h) and slowly lower the blade

into and through the workpiece.

10. Release the switch trigger (23)

and allow the saw blade to

stop rotating before raising the

blade out of the workpiece.

Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.

Cross-cutting

(with slide action)

When cutting wide workpieces,

first unscrew the slide lock (22)

(fig. i).
1. Pull on the release knob (6),

raise the saw arm (5) to its

highest position and slide it

towards you (fig. j).

2. Hold the handle firmly and

squeeze the switch trigger

(23). Allow the blade to reach

maximum speed.
