2. Preparing to make a cut
a) Avoid awkward operations and hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause
fingers or hands to move into the blade.
b) Cut only one workpiece at a time.
c) Clear everything except the workpiece and
related support devices away from the blade
before turning the mitre saw on.
d) Secure workpiece using clamps to hold
the workpiece securely.
3. Body and Hand Position
1. Never place hands near the cutting area and
keep hands away from the path of blade.
2. Hold the workpiece firmly to the fence to
prevent movement. Use a clamp if necessary
but check that it is positioned so that it does
not foul the blade.
3. Before making a cut. Make a dry run with the
power off so you can see the path of the blade.
4. Keep hands in position until the ON/OFF
trigger has been released and the blade has
completely stopped.
4. On/Off Switch Operation
The On/Off switch is located in the cutting
handle (Fig. 9) and incorporates several safety
features to guard against accidental actuation.
To switch ‘On’
• Grasp the saw handle.
• Slide the trigger switch safety locking slide
downwards.
• Press the trigger switch. The machine will start.
To release the lower safety guard and cutting
head, press the head release thumb button on
the top of the saw handle. (Fig. 10)
Gently lower the cutting head through the
workpiece to make a cut.
To switch ‘Off’
• Allow the cutiing head to rise to its upper
position.
• Release the trigger switch, thumb button and
safety locking slide.
• Wait for the saw blade to completely stop
before removing your hand from the cutting
handle.
The safety locking slide and head release
button will automatically deploy to ‘safety
mode’.
5. Chop Cutting
The saw handle is gently pushed down to cut
through a workpiece.
a) Place the workpiece on the table and
against the fence in the desired position.
Secure with clamps if necessary.
b) Grasp the saw handle.
c) Turn on the saw using the trigger switch
and allow the blade to reach full operating
speed.
d) Press the cutting head release button to
release the saw head.
e) Gently push the saw head down and cut
through the workpiece.
f) After the cut is completed, turn off the saw
by releasing the trigger switch, and allow
the blade to come to a complete halt before
removing your hands or the workpiece from
the machine.
6. Mitre Cutting.
Any angle from 50
0
left to 50
0
right is
available, and a protractor scale can be found
on the front of the machine table.
Positive stops are provided at 0
0
and 15
0
,
22.5
0
, 30
0
and 45
0
to the RH and LH side.
a) Loosen the mitre angle locking screw. This
is situated on the RH side of the machine
table just above the 22.5
0
index mark.
b) Push down the positive stop locking lever
and turn the table to the desired angle as
indicated on the mitre protractor scale by
using the cutting handle. Lock in the required
position by tightening the mitre angle locking
screw. (Fig. 11) A small index pointer can be
found under the table insert to aid accurate
setting.
c) If utilizing the positive stop facility it is still good
practice to lock the table into position using the
mitre locking screw
d) Start the saw and allow it to reach full operating
speed before making the cut.
