Global Machinery Company TTS5000M instruction manual Making a cut, Making a plunge cut

4. Switch on the laser beam

using the laser light on/offV button (4) (Fig. U).

5.Align the beam with the line on the workpiece (Fig. V).

6.Start the motor by pressing the lock off button (3) and squeezing the trigger switch (2).

7.Always let the blade reach full speed (approximately

2 seconds) before you begin to cut into the workpiece.

8.Slowly push the saw forward using both hands, keeping the red laser light beam on the line of cut.

9.After completing your cut, release the trigger switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not remove the saw from the work piece while the blade is moving.

10.Switch off the laser beam on completion of the cut.

Making a cut

1.	Mark the line of cut on the
	workpiece.	w
2.	Adjust the depth of cut and
	bevel angle as required.
3.	Rest the front edge of the
	base plate (12) on the
	workpiece. Make sure that
	there is no contact between
	the blade and the workpiece
	(Fig. W).
4.	Start the motor by pressing
		X
	the lock off button (3) and
	squeezing the trigger
	switch (2).

Note. Always let the blade reach full speed (approximately

2 seconds) before you begin to cut into the workpiece.

5.Slowly push the saw forward using both hands (Fig. X).

6.When making a cut always use steady, even pressure. Forcing the saw causes rough cuts and could shorten the life of the saw or cause kickback. Allow the blade and the saw to do the work.

7.After completing your cut, release the trigger switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop.

Do not remove the saw from the workpiece while the blade is moving.

Note. To prevent possible overload of the motor, the depth of cut should not be more than 20mm at a pass. When you wish to cut deeper than 20mm make a number of passes with progressively deeper settings.

Note. As a general rule, align the outer blade guide notch (19b) on the front of the base plate with the cut line when making bevel cuts. For more accuracy, it may be necessary to make a trial cut in a scrap piece of material along a guideline to determine how much you should offset the blade from the guideline. At the same time, you can also check the angle of cut if this is critical. The outer blade guide notch (19a) should be aligned with the cutting line when making straight cuts.

Making a plunge cut

1.	Adjust the depth of cut as
	required.
		Y
2.	Adjust the bevel setting to 0°.

3.Use the blade guard lever (23) to raise the lower blade guard (22) and expose the saw blade (Fig. Y).

4.Firmly rest the front of the base plate (12) flat against the workpiece with the rear handle

raised, so the blade does not touch the workpiece.

5.With the blade just clearing the workpiece, start the motor by pressing the lock off button (3) and squeezing the trigger switch (2).
