CAUTION:
• Grip the workpiece only when the projection is at the
topmost position. Failure to do so may result in
insufficient securing of the workpiece. This could cause
the workpiece to be thrown, cause damage to the blade
or cause the loss of control, which can result in
PERSONAL INJURY.
Holders and holder assembly
002247
(optional accessories)
The holders and the holder assembly can be installed on
either side as a convenient means of supporting workpieces
horizontally. Install them as shown in the figure. Then tighten
the screws firmly to secure the holders and the holder
assembly.
When cutting long workpieces, use the holder-rod assembly
002246
(optional accessory). It consists of two holder assemblies
and two rods 12.
CAUTION:
• Always support long workpieces level with the top
surface of the turn base for accurate cuts and to prevent
1
dangerous loss of control of the tool.
CAUTION:
• Before use, be sure to release the handle from the
lowered position by pulling the stopper pin.
• Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece, etc.
before the switch is turned on.
• Do not apply excessive pressure on the handle when
cutting. Too much force may result in overload of the
motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency. Push down
handle with only as much force as is necessary for
smooth cutting and without significant decrease in blade
speed.
