MACHINE USE
BEFORE APPLYING POWER TO THE MACHINE, make all necessary adjustments and ensure that all guards are in
place and are secure. Turn the upper wheel by hand to visually inspect the machine.
Keep the top guide within 1/8" of the workpiece. Do not force the workpiece against the blade. Light pressure will
produce a smoother cut and prevent excess friction and heating of the blade. Keep the workpiece moving at a slow
and consistent rate.
To prevent twisting of the blade, avoid making sharp corner cuts.
KEEP THE SAW BLADE SHARP.
