ENGLISH
5. Mitre right.
6. Save the right side of the cut.

Special Cuts

• All cuts are made with the material secured to the table and against
the fence. Be sure to properly secure workpiece.
BOWED MATERIAL
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure 34
and never like that shown in Figure 35. Positioning the material
incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the completion of the
cut.
CUTTING PLASTIC PIPE OR OTHER ROUND MATERIAL
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like
wood and clamped or held firmly to the fence to keep it from rolling.
This is extremely important when making angle cuts.
CUTTING LARGE MATERIAL
Occasionally a piece of wood will be too large to fit beneath the blade
guard. A little extra height can be gained by rolling the guard up out of
the way, as shown in Figure 36. Avoid doing this as much as possible,
but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut.
NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN
OPERATING THIS SAW.
Dust extraction (fi g. 2, 3)
• Fit the dustbag (ff) onto the dust spout (nn).
Connect a dust collection device designed in accordance with the
relevant regulations. The air velocity of externally connected systems
shall be 20m/s +/- 2 m/s. Velocity to be measured in the connection
tube at the point of connection, with the tool connected but not
running.
Transporting (fi g. 4)
In order to conveniently carry the mitre saw, a carrying handle (a) has
beenincluded on the top of the saw arm.
• To transport the saw, lower the arm and depress the lock down
pin (o).
• Always use the carrying handle (a) or the hand indentations (r)
shown in fig. 4 to transport the saw.
