7. 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
8. Use the Clamp Assembly (10) to secure the workpiece wherever possible
9. It is possible to 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
10. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to
check that there are no problems
11. Hold the Operating Handle (7) firmly and squeeze the Trigger Switch
(24). Allow the blade to reach maximum speed
12. Press the Release Latch (36) and slowly lower the blade into and
through the workpiece
13. Once the cut is complete, slowly raise the blade out of the workpiece
and once clear of the workpiece release the trigger switch and allow
the saw blade to stop rotating. Continue raising the operating handle
until back in its secure normal position with the guard covering the
blade. Remove the workpiece
Compound mitre cut
A compound mitre cut involves using
a mitre angle and a bevel angle at the
same time (Fig. v). 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 into the good material.
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 the desired
angle on the Mitre Scale (22)
4. Re-tighten the mitre lock
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 (18) and
move the Saw Arm (5) to the left or right to the desired bevel angle
(between 0º and 45º). Tighten the bevel lock
6. 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
7. 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

Adjusting the laser lines
WARNING: Read the laser safety information at the beginning of the
manual
The lower laser is factory set to emit a laser line along the right-hand side
of the blade. The upper laser is factory set to emit a laser line to the left-
hand side of the blade. This upper laser can be adjusted by the operator to
suit blades of different kerf widths.
To adjust the position of the upper laser, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the laser cover by pulling the cover of the Laser Light
Assembly (1) towards you
2. Switch on the laser lights with the Laser Light Switch (2) (Fig. w)
w
3. Using a Phillips head screwdriver (not supplied), adjust the position of the
line from the upper laser by turning the Laser Pitch Control (4) (Fig. x)
4. Adjust until the left-hand laser line is aligned with the left-hand side of
the blade
5. Switch off the laser lights with the laser light switch
