APPLICATION ADVICE

• Always face the good side of the workpiece down to
ensure minimum splintering
• Only use sharp saw blades of the correct type !
- quality of cut improves by the number of teeth
- carbide tipped blades stay sharp up to 30 times
longer than ordinary blades
• Rip fence X @
- for making exact cuts along a workpiece edge
- can be inserted in either side of foot
Adjusting rip fence
- loosen knob Y
- adjust to desired cutting width by using rip fence
scale (use dual laser line Q as 0-reference)
- tighten knob Y
• Plunge cutting #
- set desired cutting depth
- tilt tool forward with dual laser line Q lined up with
desired line of cut marked on the workpiece
- open lower guard F with lever G
- just before blade enters workpiece, switch on tool
and gradually lower back end of tool using front end
of foot as hinge-point
- gradually move tool downward as well as forward
- as soon as blade enters the material, release lever G
! never pull tool backwards
• Cutting large panels $
- support panel close to the cut either on fl oor, table or
workbench
! set cutting depth so that you cut through panel
and not through support

clamp or nail straight piece of wood to workpiece as
a guide, and use the right side of the foot against this
