ENGLISH
Secure the work piece with the material clamp.
switch on the tool without the blade making any contact
and wait until the blade attains full speed before lowering.
Then gently lower the handle to the fully lowered position
to cut the work piece.
When the cut is complete, switch off the tool and wait until
the blade has come to a complete stop before returning
the blade to its fully elevated position.
Caution! Firmly tighten the track arm lock knob clockwise so
that the carriage will not move during operation. Insuffi cient
tightening may cause unexpected kickback of the blade.
Possible serious personal injury may result.
Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide work pieces) (Fig.
26)
Loosen the track arm lock knob (6)counterclockwise so
that the carriage can slide freely.
Secure the work piece (52) with the material clamp (17).
Pull the carriage toward you fully.
Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact
and wait until the blade gets up to full speed.
press down the handle (1) and push the carriage toward
the guide fence. And through the workpiece.
When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and wait
until the blade has come to a complete stop before
returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
CAUTION: When performing a slide cut, pull the carriage
toward you fully and press down the handle to the fully
lowered position, then push the carriage toward the guide
fence. Never start the cut with the carriage not fully pulled
toward you.
If you perform the slide cut without pulling the carriage fully
or if you perform the slide cut towards you, the blade may
kickback unexpectedly with the potential to cause serious
personal injury. Never perform the slide cut with the handle
locked in the lowered position by pressing the stopper pin.
Mitre cutting (Fig.27)
Loosen the grip (21) by turning counterclockwise.
When you have moved the grip (21) to the position where
the pointer (32) points to the desired angle on the mitre
scale (33), securely tighten the grip clockwise.
Caution! When turning the turn base, be sure to raise the
handle fully. After changing the mitre angle, always secure the
turn base by tightening the grip fi rmly.
Bevel cutting (Fig.28)
Loosen the lever (10) and tilt the saw blade to set the
bevel angle (refer to the previous section "Adjusting the
bevel angle"). Be sure to retighten the lever (10) fi rmly to
secure the selected bevel angle.

(Original instructions)
Secure the work piece (52) with the material clamp (17).
Make sure the carriage is pulled all the way back toward
the operator fully.
Switch on the tool without the blade making any contact
and wait until the blade attains full speed.
Then gently lower the handle to the fully lowered position
while applying pressure in parallel with the blade and push
the carriage toward the guide fence to cut the work piece.
When the cut is completed switch off the tool and wait until
the blade has come to a complete stop before returning
the blade to its elevated position.
Caution! Always be sure that the blade will move down to
bevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep your hands out of
the path of the saw blade. During a bevel cut, it may create
a condition whereby the piece cut off will come to rest against
the side of the blade. If the blade is raised while the blade is
still rotating, this piece may be caught by the blade , causing
fragments to be scattered, which is dangerous. The blade
should be raised only after the blade has come to a complete
stop. When pressing down the handle, apply pressure in
parallel with the blade. If a force is applied perpendicularly to
the turn base or if the pressure direction is changed during
a cut, the precision of the cut will be diminished.
Always slide or remove the sliding fence (left) so that it does
not interfere with any part of the carriage when performing
bevel cuts.
Compound cutting
Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel angle is
made at the same time in which a mitre angle is being cut.
Compound cutting can be performed at the angles shown in
the below table.
Mitre angle
Left and Right 0° ~ 45°
When performing compound cutting, refer to the "Press
cutting", "Slide cutting", "Mitre cutting" and "Bevel cutting
sections of this manual.
Groove cutting (Fig.29)
A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as follows:
Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using the
adjusting screw and the stopper arm to limit the cutting
depth of the blade . refer to the "Stopper arm" section
described previously.
After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade, cut
parallel grooves across the width of the work piece using
a slide (push) cut as shown in figure.
Then remove the work piece material between the
grooves with a chisel.
