BEFORE CUTTING

1. Cutting a groove on the table insert.

Table Insert

A groove has to be cut in the table insert, before starting operation. Secure a piece of wood about 5-1/2" (140 mm) wide to the table with the vise assembly, to prevent the breakage of the table insert. After the switch has been turned on and the saw blade has reached maximum speed, slowly lower the handle to cut a groove on the table insert.

CAUTION: Do not cut the groove too quickly; otherwise the table insert might become damaged.

Check that the saw blade can be lowered 1-5/8" to 1-21/32" (41 mm to 42 mm) below the table insert.

If necessary, adjust as follows:

(1)Loosen the 8 mm lock nut on the 8 mm depth adjustment screw.

(2)Turn the 8 mm depth adjustment screw as necessary to set the lower limit position. The saw blade goes up when the 8 mm depth adjustment screw is turned counterclockwise and down when it is turned clockwise.

(3)Once the adjustment is complete, fully tighten the 8 mm lock nut.

NOTE: Before tightening the 8 mm lock nut, confirm that the saw blade is adjusted so that it will not cut into the table.

3. Confirmation for use of sub fence

WARNING: In the case of left bevel cutting, turn the sub fence counterclockwise. Unless it is turned counterclockwise, the main body or saw blade may contact the sub fence, resulting in an injury.

Fence (B)

This power tool is equipped with a sub fence. (See Fig. 1)

In the case of direct angle cutting and angle cutting, use the sub fence. Then, you can realize stable cutting of the material with a wide back face.

In the case of left bevel cutting, raise the sub fence up as illustrated in Fig.9 and then turn it counterclockwise.
