MODES OF USE
CHOP CUT
1. Move the sliding carriage to the rear as far as possible and lock in place by
tightening the carriage slide lock knob (J, fig.1 & 2).
2. Lock the head in the upright, 0
adjustment lever (H, fig.1 & 2).
3. Using the mitre clamp knob (P, fig.1 & 2), lock the table rotation at 0
4. Switch the machine on and wait until the saw blade reaches its maximum
speed.
5. Press the handle downwards slowly. Allow the blade to cut through the material.
Do not force the tool.
6. After you have finished cutting, release the trigger switch and wait until the saw
blade stops completely, then raise the handle.
This is a good setting for simple crosscuts of smaller pieces.
MITRE CUT:

2. Lock the head in the upright, 0
adjustment lever (H, fig.1 & 2).
3. Unscrew the mitre clamp knob (P, fig.1 & 2), and using the mitre table adjusting
handle (S, fig.1 & 2), rotate the table up to 45
encounter positive stops at 0
4. Use the mitre clamp knob, screwing it tight to lock the table at the desired angle,
especially those angles between the indexed positive stops.
5. Switch the machine on and wait until the saw blade reaches its maximum
speed.
. Press the handle downwards slowly. Allow the blade to cut through the material.

side of the table to prevent it interfering with the movement of the cutting head.
Always check before making the cut if there is any potential interference from the
clamp or any other part of the machine.
