rotating before raising the blade out of the workpiece. Wait until the
blade stops before removing the workpiece

Bevel cut

• A bevel cut is made by cutting
across the grain of the workpiece
with the blade angled to the fence
GB
and mitre table. The mitre table
is set at the zero degree position
and the blade set at an angle
between 0° and 45° (Fig. k)
• Use the slide action when cutting
wide workpieces
1. Pull on the Release Knob (6) and
lift the saw arm to its full height
2. Loosen the Mitre Lock (25)
3. Rotate the Mitre Table (21) until the pointer aligns with zero on the Mitre
Scale (22)
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, causing serious
personal injury.
5. Loosen the Bevel Lock (16) and pull out the 0° bevel adjuster. Move the
Saw Arm (5) to the left or right to the desired bevel angle (between 0°
and 45°). Tighten the Bevel Lock (16)

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
7. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite end of the
timber with the Side Bars (37), a roller stand or a work surface that is
level with the saw table
8. Use the Clamp Assembly (10) to secure the workpiece wherever
possible.
Note: It is possible to remove the Clamp Assembly (10) 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
9. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to
check that there are no problems
10. Hold the Operating Handle (7) firmly and squeeze the Trigger Switch
(24). Allow the blade to reach maximum speed
11. Press the Release Latch (36) and slowly lower the blade into and

• A compound mitre cut involves
using a mitre angle and a bevel
angle at the same time (Fig. l). It is
used in making picture frames, to
cut mouldings, making boxes with
sloping sides and for roof framing
• Always make a test cut on a piece
of scrap wood before cutting the
workpiece. Use the slide action
