How to use the SightLine™ feature (fig. F)

the indent (16) can be used as an alternate cutting guide.
Hints for optimum use
General
Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for aluminium
u
and PVC and a low speed for metals other than aluminium.
Sawing laminates
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may
occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
Use a fine-tooth saw blade.
u
Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
u
To minimise splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or
u
hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through
this sandwich.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
u
sawing wood.
Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
u
When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
u
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
