•

Too much pressure being applied to the tool can also

cause the cutting disc to cut on an angle. Ensure the

beginning of the cut is a gradual start and apply the firm

and constant pressure as the cut gets deeper.

•

When cutting sections, always try and cut the sections

so as the actual cutting length is as short as possible

through the section. For example, angle iron has two

sections to be cut. If the material is cut where both

sections are cut at once, it is better for the cutting action

than trying to cut on thin section and then a long length

cut for the next section. The longer the length of cut,

the more chance of the cutting disc glazing and motor

overload.

Note.

As the disc wears the cutting capacity will decrease

and the depth stop knob may need to be adjusted.

Mounting the chop saw

to the bench top

The chop saw has the facility to

be bolted to the bench top using

two 10mm bolts. The fixing

points are down the center of

the base, one at the front and

one at the rear (Fig. V).

With the front hole, the bolt

needs to pass through the base from the top of the saw and

then through the bench top. The rear bolt needs to pass

through the bench top and then screw into the chop saw

base.

The thread for the rear is a 10mm x 1.5mm thread.

Maintenance

WARNING.

Always ensure that the tool is switched off and

the plug is removed from the power point before making and

adjustments or maintenance procedures.

If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried

out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer's agent, or an

authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
