Bevel Cutting - Ubermann UCS04BRA Manual Del Operador

OPERATION
To make the best possible cut:
• Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
• Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making a cut.
• Support the workpiece so that the cut (kerf) is always to your
side.
• Support the workpiece near the cut.
• Clamp the workpiece securely so that the workpiece will not
move during the cut.
• Always place the saw on the workpiece that is supported, not
the "cut off" piece.
• Place the workpiece with the "good" side down.
• Draw a guideline along the desired line of cut before beginning
your cut.
Cross Cutting/Rip Cutting
See Figures 15 - 16, page 21.
When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of cut with the
outer blade guide notch on the saw base.
Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut in scrap
material along a guideline to determine how much, if any, the
guideline must be offset to produce an accurate cut.
NOTE: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline is the
amount you should offset the guide.
• Secure the workpiece.
• Clamp a straight edge to the workpiece using C-clamps.
• Saw along the straight edge to achieve a straight rip cut.
NOTE: Do not bind the blade in the cut.
Using the Edge Guide
See Figure 17, page 21.
Use the edge guide when making long or wide rip cuts with the
saw.
• Remove the battery pack from the tool.
• Place the edge guide through the slots in the saw base.
• Adjust the edge guide to the width needed.
• Tighten the wing screw securely.
When using an edge guide, position the face of the edge guide
firmly against the edge of workpiece. This makes for a true cut
without pinching the blade. The guiding edge of the workpiece
must be straight for your cut to be straight. Use caution to
prevent the blade from binding in the cut.

Bevel Cutting

See Figures 18 - 20, page 22.
The angle of cut of the saw may be adjusted to any desired
setting between zero and 50°.
NOTE: When making cuts at 50°, the blade should be set at full
depth of cut.
Since blade thicknesses vary and different angles require
different settings, always make a trial cut in scrap material
along a guideline to determine how much you should offset the
guideline on the board to be cut.
When making a bevel cut, hold the saw firmly with both hands.
Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece. Depress the
lock-off button and squeeze the switch trigger to start the saw.
Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw into
the workpiece.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before it
reaches full speed could cause saw to "kickback" toward you
resulting in serious injury.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow the
blade to come to a complete stop. After the blade has stopped,
lift the saw from the workpiece.
