After installation of saw blade or before first use, adjust down-stop bolt so that blade does not contact chip
tray bottom when blade is in the full down position.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW WHILE SAWING
1.
Select the correct saw blade appropriate to the material being cut. (mild steel, stainless steel or aluminum)
2.
The material surface should be clean and level, free from rust, dirt, scale, and other debris.
3.
Material may become heat treated if flame cut. Always avoid cutting near these areas whenever possible.
4.
Adjust the vise plate to the desired miter angle by loosening the left and right Miter Lock bolts
(item# 95). Refer to "Exploded View".
5.
When cutting smaller profiles, vise plate may be moved forward to aid in cutting quality and to minimize pull-out
from the vise. Miter can be set by observing index marks printed on vise bracket.
6.
Connect machine to power source.
7.
Firmly grasp guide handle and trigger handle switch (item# 14, 15 and 24).
8.
Position material in the saw vise and align cutting line with blade. Adjust the front and rear vise plates as
necessary to firmly hold material in the desired position.
9. When ready, start saw motor by activating trigger switch (item# 17).
10. Slowly approach material edge and gently apply pressure until saw blade has established a cutting groove in the
material.
11. Apply smooth, constant pressure without over-loading saw motor.
IF SAW MOTOR SHOULD STALL OR STOP BEFORE A COMPLETE CUT IS MADE ALWAYS REMOVE BLADE FROM
MATERIAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RESTART MOTOR
AFTER COMPLETING THE CUT
1. After the cut, release trigger switch to the "OFF" position.
2. When saw motor completely stops, clear both drop piece and material from vise.
