To Slide Cut - RIDGID R48607 Manual Del Operador

OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not try to cut narrow pieces using the sliding
feature. Failure to heed this warning could result in
serious personal injury.
LED LIGHTING SYSTEM
See Figure 27.
The LED lighting system casts the shadow of the blade onto
the workpiece. This results in greater accuracy of cuts and
requires no adjustments.
To use this feature, press the LED button. The LED light will
automatically turn off after 15 seconds.
NOTE: The LED light will automatically turn on when the
switch trigger is depressed.
Bring the saw arm down so that the blade is approximately
1/4 in. from the workpiece. The shadow of the blade will be
projected onto the workpiece, indicating where the blade
teeth will make contact as the cut is made.

TO SLIDE CUT

See Figure 28-29.
WARNING:
NEVER make a cut by pulling the saw toward you
as the blade can climb on top of the workpiece
and come toward you. Failure to heed this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
The sliding feature will cut workpieces up to 7-1/4 in. wide
x 1-1/2 in. thick.
With the saw off, pull the saw arm forward. Squeeze the
switch trigger (let blade reach maximum speed), then push
the blade down on top of the workpiece then back toward
the rear of the saw to make a cut. Cuts are made by: pushing
the saw blade away from you and toward the bevel scale
at the back of the saw, stopping when the full rear position
has been reached after each cut. When the saw is running
(turned on), NEVER pull the saw blade toward you or toward
the front of the saw.
 Raise saw arm to its full height.
 Push the miter lock lever down to secure the miter table.
 Place the workpiece flat on the miter table with one edge
securely against the fence. If the board is warped, place
the convex side against the fence. If the concave edge
of a board is placed against the fence, the board could
collapse on the blade at the end of the cut, jamming the
blade. See Figures 41 - 42.
 When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, support
the opposite end of the stock with a roller stand or with
a work surface level with the saw table. See Figure 35.
 Align the cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of
saw blade.
