ly minimizes this effect.
Fig. 5 shows the appropriate position for the user. Posi-
tion your body to either side of the blade, but not in line
with the blade as kickback could cause the saw to jump
backwards.
Cutting Large Sheets
Large sheets and long boards sag or bend, depending
on support. If you attempt to cut without levelling and
properly supporting the piece, the blade will tend to bind,
causing kickback and extra load on the motor.
Use timber underneath the sheet or board to raise it for
support. This will ensure a safe and stable cutting opera-
tion. Support the panel or board close to the cut. Be sure
to set the depth of the cut so that you cut through the
sheet or board only and not the table or work bench. If
the sheet or board to be cut is too large for a table or work
bench, use supporting timbers on the floor and secure.
Rip cuts
The rip fence (24) is used when cutting parallel to the
edge of a shaped part. To attach rip fence (24), insert rip
fence (24) through rip fence slots (11) in base plate (14)
to desired width and secure with the rip fence lock knob
(12). (Fig. 6)
When rip cutting large sheets, the rip fence (24) may not
allow the desired width of cut. Clamp or nail a straight
piece of 25mm thick timber to the sheet as a guide. Use
the right side of the base plate (14) against the board
guide.
ACCESSORIES
Carbide-tipped blade TCT 36T Ø185 x Ø20 mm, hex key,
