Making A Cut
Ensure there is enough space around the table for the work piece before starting the cut. Position your feet
in a stable and balanced stance.
When feeding the timber, place your hands on the section of timber being kept. Never hold the waste part
of the timber.
Never force timber through the saw, always let it cut at its own speed.
When cutting narrow pieces - use a push stick.
Ripping Cut
The rip fence is used to make longitudinal
(with the grain) cuts. Set the fence to the
required dimension using the scale
provided.
To avoid kickback, the far end of the fence
extrusion should be set correctly.
When cutting narrow pieces, the fence
extrusion should be set so that the end is
level with the centre of the saw blade. This
allows the timber space to expand into,
after the cut has been made.
When cutting wider pieces, the fence
extrusion can be moved further towards the
back of the blade, in a line projecting at
roughly at 45 degrees out from the centre of
the blade.
Cross Cutting
This saw has 2 options for making cross
cuts: Using the sliding mitre fence or using
the sliding carriage.
Cross Cutting With Sliding Mitre Fence
The sliding mitre fence is most suitable for
cutting small pieces. It fits into either of the
T-shaped channels in the table.
To set 90 degrees or any other angle, undo
the locking knob and rotate the quadrant to
the desired angle.
The work piece can be held against either
face of the fence.
