CAUTION:
Always rotate the vise nut to the right fully when securing
the workpiece. Failure to do so may result in insufficient
securing of the workpiece. This could cause the
workpiece to be thrown, cause damage to the blade or
cause the loss of control, which can result in
PERSONAL INJURY.

Holders

The holders can be installed on either side as a convenient
means of holding workpieces horizontally. Slip the holder
rods into the holes in the base and adjust their length accord-
ing to the workpiece to be held. Then tighten the holders
securely with the screws.
CAUTION:
Always support long workpieces level with the top
surface of the turn base for accurate cuts and to prevent
dangerous loss of control of the tool.
OPERATION CAUTION:
Before use, be sure to release the handle from the
lowered position by pulling the stopper pin.
Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece, etc.
before the switch is turned on.
Do not apply excessive pressure on the handle when
cutting. Too much force may result in overload of the
motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency. Push down
handle with only as much force as is necessary for
smooth cutting and without significant decrease in blade
speed.
Gently press down the handle to perform the cut. If the
handle is pressed down with force or if lateral force is
applied, the blade will vibrate and leave a mark (saw
mark) in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will
be impaired.
During a slide cut, gently push the carriage toward the
guide fence without stopping. If the carriage movement
is stopped during the cut, a mark will be left in the
workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.
