When securing aluminum extrusions, use spacer blocks
or pieces of scrap as shown in the figure to prevent
deformation of the aluminum. Use a cutting lubricant
when cutting the aluminum extrusion to prevent build-up
of the aluminum material on the circular saw blade.
WARNING:
Never attempt to cut thick or
round aluminum extrusions. Thick or round alumi-
num extrusions can be difficult to secure and the work
may loosen during the cutting operation which may
result in loss of control and serious personal injury.
Special max width cutting capacities
technique
The maximum cutting capacity of width can be achieved
by following the steps below:
For the maximum cutting width of this tool, refer
to the cutting capacities for special cuttings in the
SPECIFICATIONS section.
1.
Set the tool at 0° or 45° miter angle and make sure
that the turn base is locked. (Refer to the section for
miter angle adjustment.)
2.
Remove both right and left upper fences temporar-
ily and set aside them.

3.
Cut a platform to the dimensions indicated in the
figure using a 38 mm (1-1/2") thick, flat stock material
such as wood, plywood or particle board.

► 1. 0° Miter angle: Over 450 mm (17-3/4") 2. 45°
Miter angle: Over 325 mm (12-3/4") 3. 38 mm
(1-1/2") 4. Over 760 mm (30")
WARNING:
Be sure to use flat stock as a platform.
Stock that is not flat may move during the cutting operation
which may result in kickback and serious personal injury.
NOTE: The maximum cutting capacity in height will
be reduced by the same amount as the platform
thickness.
4.
Place the platform on the tool so that it extends
equally over each side of the tool base.
Secure the platform to the tool using four 6 mm (1/4")
wood screws through four holes in the lower fences.

WARNING:
Make sure that the platform is lay-
ing flat against the tool base and secured firmly
to the lower fences using the four screw holes
provided. Failure to properly secure the platform may
result in movement and possible kickback resulting in
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Ensure that the tool is firmly
mounted to a stable and flat surface. Failure to
properly mount and secure the tool could cause the
tool to be unstable resulting in a loss of control and/
or the tool falling which may result in serious personal
injury.
