2.Loosen the mitre locks (18).
3.Rotate the mitre table (16) until the pointer aligns with the desired angle on the mitre scale (17).
4.Retighten the mitre locks (18).
WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre locks 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 (12) and move the saw arm (5) to the left to the desired bevel angle (between 0º and 45º). Tighten the bevel lock (12).
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 a roller stand.
8.Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to check that there are no problems.
9.Hold the operating handle (7) firmly and squeeze the switch trigger (23). Allow the blade to reach maximum speed.
10.Press the release latch (24) and slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
11.Release the switch trigger (23) and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.
Using the laser line generator
WARNINGS.
Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the workpiece.
Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel and ensure that it is not directed towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. Wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective surfaces are not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator.
Always remember to switch off the laser on/off switch (2) after finishing a job. Only turn the laser beam on when the workpiece is on the mitre saw table.
1.Mark the line of the cut on the workpiece.
2.Adjust the angle of mitre and bevel of the cut as required.
3.Switch on the laser light on/off switch (2).
4.Clamp the workpiece in position using the laser line to align the blade with the pencil mark on the workpiece.
5.Plug in the machine and start the motor.
6.Press the release latch (24).
7.When the blade is at its maximum speed (approximately 2 seconds), lower the blade through the workpiece.
8.After completing the cut, switch off the laser light on/off switch (2).
9.After each use, clean the laser light assembly (1) as described below:
•Switch off the laser light switch (2) and then remove the plug from the power point.
•With the saw arm (5) in the raised position, use a soft brush to dust away the sawdust
Note. Wear eye protection whilst brushing the dust away.
