BASIC CIRCULAR SAW OPERATIONS
9.5 PARALLEL GUIDE – FIG.8
– Pass the parallel guide (6) through the slots in the
base and secure with locking knob (7).
– Set the required cutting width, using the width scale
markings as a guide.
– Make a test cut on a scrap piece of timber prior to
making any cuts on the workpiece and adjust
accordingly.
– For greater accuracy, measure between the edge of
the blade allowing for the kerf of the blade and the
parallel guide's face.
9.6 LASER GUIDE – FIG.9
Warning! Laser radiation. Do not stare into
beam. Class 2 laser product.
The laser beam aperture (10) is
activated by pressing button (9) and
will stay on until the button is pressed
again.
– Mark the line of the cut on the
workpiece.
– Adjust the depth and/or bevel angles
of the cut as required.
– Turn on the laser guide by pressing the laser on/off
button (9) and align the line of the cut on the
workpiece.
– When the blade is at its maximum speed (approx. 2
sec.) make the cut.
– On completion of the cut, switch off the laser.
9.7 SAW OPERATION
Caution: When using, always cut forward in a straight
line without forcing the saw. Forcing or twisting the saw
will put a strain on the motor, and at the very least result
in decreased efficiency or possible overheating
damage. More seriously, it could cause dangerous
kickback of the saw resulting in severe injury.
– Always operate the saw firmly, using the rear and
auxiliary handles.
– Offer the base of the saw to the workpiece without
blade contact.
– Switch on and wait until full speed is attained, then
advance the saw, keeping it flat and cutting
smoothly until the cut is complete – Straight line
sawing at a uniform speed of advance will obtain
the best clean cuts.
– After releasing the trigger switch, wait until the blade
has fully stopped before withdrawing.
