Cross-Cutting (With Slide Action) - GMC DB305SMS Mode D'emploi

3. Switch on the Laser Light On/Off
Switch (2) (Fig. e)
4. Clamp the workpiece in position
using the laser lines to align the
blade with the pencil mark on the
workpiece (Fig. f)
Note: To cut to the left-hand side of
the blade, align the left-hand laser
line with the pencil mark. To cut to
the right-hand side of the blade, align
the right-hand laser line with the
pencil mark.
5. Plug in the machine and start the
motor
6. Press the Release Latch (36)
7. When the blade is at its maximum
speed (approximately 2 seconds),
lower the blade through the
workpiece
8. After completing the cut, switch off
the Laser Light On/Off Switch (2)
9. After each use, clean the Laser
Light Assembly (1):
a) Switch off the Laser Light Switch (2) and remove the plug from the
power point
b) With the Saw Arm (5) in the raised position, use a soft brush to dust
away the sawdust build-up around the assembly
Note: Wear eye protection whilst brushing the dust away
Cross-cutting (without slide action)
• When cutting a narrow piece of
wood it is not necessary to use
the slide mechanism. In these
cases ensure that the Slide Lock
(29) is screwed down to prevent
the saw arm from sliding
• A crosscut is made by cutting
across the grain of the workpiece.
A 90° crosscut is made with the
mitre table set at 0° (Fig. g). Mitre
crosscuts are made with the table
set at an angle other than zero
1. Pull on the Release Knob (6) and lift the Saw Arm (5) to its full height
2. Loosen the Mitre Lock (25)
3. Rotate the Mitre Table (21) until the pointer aligns with the desired
angle

4. Retighten the Mitre Lock (25). WARNING: Be sure to tighten the mitre
lock before making a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table
moving during the cut and cause serious personal injury
5. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge securely against the
Fence (19). If the board is warped, place the convex side against the
fence. If the concave side is placed against the fence, the board could
break and jam the blade
6. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite end of the
timber with the Side Support Bars (37), a roller stand or a work surface
that is level with the saw table
7. Use the Clamp Assembly (10) to
secure the workpiece wherever
possible.
Note: You can remove the clamp
assembly by loosening the Clamp
Assembly Lock (11) and moving it to
the other side of the table. Make sure
the clamp assembly lock is tight before
using the clamp (Fig. h)
8. Before turning on the saw, perform
a dry run of the cutting operation to
check that there are no problems
9. Hold the Operating Handle (7) firmly and squeeze the Trigger Switch
(24). Allow the blade to reach
maximum speed
10.Press the Release Latch (36) (Fig.
i) and slowly lower the blade into
and through the workpiece
11.Release the Trigger Switch (24)
and allow the saw blade to stop
rotating before raising the blade
out of the workpiece. Wait until the
blade stops before removing the
workpiece
Cross-cutting (with slide
action)
• When cutting wide workpieces,
unscrew the slide lock (29)
1. Pull on the Release Knob (6),
raise the Saw Arm (5) to its highest
position and slide it towards you
(Fig. j)
2. Hold the handle firmly and squeeze
the Trigger Switch (24). Allow the
blade to reach maximum speed
