SAW OPERATION
Warnings:
• Avoid free-hand cutting. It is much safer
and more accurate to cut with the saw guided
by the parallel cutting guide or a clamped on
batten. If cutting free-hand, always mark a
straight cutting line and keep the saw from
wandering away from it.
• Never perform any cuts on a workpiece held
in the hand. Make sure the workpiece cannot
move during the cut, using clamps wherever
possible.
• Large panels and long pieces must be well
supported close to both sides of the cut to
avoid pinching and kickback. Ensure the
saw is positioned with the wider part of the
baseplate resting on the larger piece, or on the
piece with the best support.
• Prevent kickback by ensuring that you
move the saw in a straight line. Ensure that
your blade is in good order and that the cut
does not close in on the blade. (Use a small
wedge or 3mm spacer in the cut to prevent
it closing if you’re cutting difficult material).
Release the trigger if the saw gives any sign
of stalling but do not remove the saw until the
blade
stops spinning.
CUTTING
1. Rest the front of the baseplate on the
workpiece with your pencil mark aligned with
the sighting device. Ensure the blade is not
touching the workpiece.
2. Hold the saw firmly with both hands and
engage the trigger. When the saw motor
reaches full rotational speed, guide the
saw smoothly along the cut line.
3. Maintain a consistent feed rate - too fast may
put excessive strain on the motor, while too
slow may burnish your workpiece. Avoid any
sudden movements of the saw.
4. After completing your cut, release the trigger
switch and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop. Do not remove the saw from the
workpiece while the blade
is moving.
Cutting veneered board
When cutting veneered board or wood less than
20mm thick, set the blade to protrude 5-10mm
through the work and cut with the good face
down. This will reduce splintering on the good
face of your workpiece. When cutting thicker
wood, set the blade to maximum depth to reduce
kickback.
Making a Pocket cut
1. Adjust the depth of cut as required.
2. Adjust the bevel setting to 0˚.
3. Raise the blade guard lever (12) to expose
the saw blade, firmly rest the front of the
base flat against the work piece with the rear
handle raised so the blade does not touch the
workpiece.
4. With the blade just clearing the workpiece, start
the saw and wait
for it to reach full speed (approximately
2 seconds).
5. Slowly plunge the blade into the workpiece,
using the front of the saw baseplate as a pivot
point.
As soon as the
blade starts cutting the material, release
the lower blade guard lever.
6. Commence cutting in a
forward direction to the
end of the cut.
7. After completing your
cut, release the trigger
switch and allow the
blade to come to a
complete stop.
Do not remove the saw from
the workpiece while the blade
is moving.
If the corners of your pocket cut are
not completely cut through, use a
jigsaw or hand saw to finish the corners.
This saw will fit comfortably into most
saw benches.
