English
The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial mill supply houses, provides proper lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.
Be sure to properly secure workpiece. Refer to page 4 for correct saw blade.
BOWED MATERIAL
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure 33 and never like that shown in Figure 34. Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the completion of the cut.
CUTTING PLASTIC PIPE OR OTHER ROUND MATERIAL
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood and CLAMPED OR HELD FIRMLY TO THE FENCE TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING. This is extremely important when making angle cuts.
CUTTING LARGE MATERIAL
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit beneath the blade guard. A little extra height can be gained by rolling the guard up out of the way, as shown in Figure 28. Avoid doing this as much as possible, but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut. NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.
MAINTENANCE
DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic guard. The polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certain chemicals.
1.All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and need no further maintenance.
2.Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around AND UNDER the base and the rotary table. Even though slots are provided to allow debris to pass through, some dust will accumulate.
3.The brushes are designed to give you several years of use. To replace the brushes refer to Brushes on page 8 or return the tool to the nearest service center for repair. A list of service center locations is packed with your tool.
