Miter Cutting; Bevel Cut - Makita DLS600 Manuel D'instruction

OPERATION
WARNING:
Make sure the blade is not con-
tacting the workpiece, etc. before the switch
is turned on. Turning the tool on with the blade in
contact with the workpiece may result in kickback and
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
After a cutting operation, do not
raise the blade until it has come to a complete
stop. The raising of a coasting blade may result in
serious personal injury and damage to the workpiece.
NOTICE:
Before use, be sure to release the
handle from the lowered position by pulling the
stopper pin.
NOTICE:
Do not apply excessive pressure on the
handle when cutting. Too much force may result in
overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting effi-
ciency. Press down handle with only as much force as
necessary for smooth cutting and without significant
decrease in blade speed.
NOTICE:
Gently press down the handle to per-
form the cut. If the handle is pressed down with force
or if lateral force is applied, the blade may vibrate and
leave a mark (saw mark) in the workpiece and the
precision of the cut may be impaired.
Press cutting (cutting small
workpieces)
Workpieces up to 46 mm (1-13/16") high and 92 mm
(3-5/8") wide can be cut in the following manner.
1. Secure the workpiece with the vise.
2. Switch on the tool without the blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed before
lowering.
3.
Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-
tion to cut the workpiece.
4. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop
before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.

Miter cutting

Refer to the previously covered "Adjusting the miter
angle".

Bevel cut

WARNING:
cut, before operating the tool ensure that the saw
head and blade will have free travel throughout
the entire range of the intended cut. Interruption
of the saw head or blade travel during the cutting
operation may result in kickback and serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
hands out of the path of the blade. The angle of the
blade may confuse the operator as to the actual blade
path while cutting and contact with the blade will
result in serious personal injury
WARNING:
until it has come to a complete stop. During a
bevel cut the piece cut off may come to rest against
the blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating the
cut-off piece maybe ejected by the blade causing
the material to fragment which may result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
performing bevel cuts. Failure to do so may cause
serious injury.
1.
Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the
bevel angle (Refer to the previously covered "Adjusting
the bevel angle"). Be sure to retighten the lever firmly to
secure the selected bevel angle safely.
2. Secure the workpiece with the vise.
3. Switch on the tool without the blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed.
4.
Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-
tion while applying pressure in parallel with the blade to
cut the workpiece.
5. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop
before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
NOTICE:
When pressing down the handle, apply
pressure in parallel with the blade. If a force is
applied perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pres-
sure direction is changed during a cut, the precision
of the cut will be impaired.
