We recommend making test of the job to be carried out. Use a piece of scrap wood to familiarize with the safest and more
efficient procedure before starting work in the real work piece.
Turning ON and Operation Control
• To turn ON the saw, press the ON green button (I) (A),
after removing the pin.
• To stop the saw, press the emergency stop red button (B).
• To prevent accidentally starting up the machine, insert
the pin in the ON (I) button.
CAUTION
Do not start the saw until reading and
understanding all the assembly, functioning and adjusting
instructions.

General Observations
• Wait until the disc has reached its maximum speed before
feeding the work piece.
• Never use the miter guide in combination with the guide to
make the same cut.
Cut Across the Wood Grain
• Set the work piece against the miter guide and carry the
piece forward, together with the miter guide and into the
cutting disc.
• Start cutting slowly and push the work piece with a firm
and continuous movement.
• When the cut is finished, separate a little the work piece
from the disc. Return the miter guide together with the
work piece to the original position.
• Never stop, collect or touch the work pieces that get
loose onto the table when cutting and the disc is moving,
unless the pieces are at least, 12" long.
• Never use the guide to cut across the grain.
• The miter guide can be mounted in any of the two slots
in the table, even though most experienced operators
prefer the left-hand slot for most of their work.
• To carry out cuts in an angle, adjust the miter guide into
the desired angle.
• When making bevel cuts (with the cutting disc tilted) use
the table slot that will not expose your hand to the moving
disc.
Cut Along the Wood Grain
• Set the work piece edge against the guide and the flat
face onto the table.
• The edge that is against the guide shall be straight and
flat so that the work piece can be guided adequately
through the guide while pushed towards the cutting disc.
• Hold the work piece with both hands and push it
lengthwise from the guide towards the cutting disc. Once
the cut is started, the piece can be held with one or both
hands.
• Upon finishing the cut and depending on its size, the
work piece can stay on the table, get caught by the rear
side of the guard or slide on the table and towards the
floor. When the pieces stay on the table, can be lifted and
be returned through the side opposite the disc.
• Never stop, collect or touch the work pieces that get
loose onto the table when cutting and the disc is moving,
unless the pieces are big enough the remove them safely.
• It is important to have the guard and the riving knife duly
mounted to prevent kickback or the cut closes after
passing through the cutting disc.
