Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

SETUP

1.BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for:

•loose hardware,

•misalignment or binding of moving parts,

•cracked or broken parts,

•damaged electrical wiring, and

•any other condition that may affect its safe operation.

2.AFTER USE, wipe external surfaces of the tool with clean cloth.

3.WARNING! If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced only by a qualified service technician.

Checking and Calibrating the Fence

OPERATION

MAINTENANCE

The Fence holds the workpiece in a fixed position while the Table and or the blade assembly

are adjusted in a miter or bevel angle.

To make accurate cuts, the Fence must be perpendicular (at a 90º angle) to the Saw Blade.

1.Before beginning work, make a test cut on scrap material with the Table set at 90º.

2.Check the cut with an accurate square.

You can also reverse the two pieces, hold the cut ends together, and hold a good straight edge along the side of the pieces.

3.If either test reveals that the cut is not a true 90º angle, adjust the Fence before beginning work.

If Fence needs adjustment:

1.First unplug the tool.

2.Lower the blade assembly and lock it in place using the Locking Pin.

3.Lay a carpenter’s square on the table with one edge along the blade and the other along the Fence. Any inaccuracy should be visible. NOTE: The square must contact the surface of the blade, not the teeth, for an accurate reading.

4.The Fence is held in place with bolts at each end. Loosen the bolts slightly, and gently tap the Fence into position using a soft mallet. Retighten the bolts and make another test cut. Repeat the process until the Fence is adjusted accurately.

5.Once the Fence is accurately adjusted, tighten the bolts firmly in place. Recheck one last time, then proceed to work.
