THE HOLD DOWN CLAMP (Fig. 33)
Note: One Hold Down Clamp is provided with the machine.
Two sockets (one either side) are incorporated into the rear of the
machines Fence. These sockets are for positioning the Hold Down
Clamp.
To use the Hold Down Clamp during operations:
• Insert the clamp into the socket that best suits the cutting
application, ensuring that it is fully pushed down.
• Tighten the fence thumbscrew to lock the pillar of the clamp into
the fence socket.
• Place the work-piece to be cut onto the saw table, against the
Fence and in the desired position.
• Adjust the clamp using the thumbscrews and hand-wheel so that it
securely holds the work-piece to the saw table.
Conduct a 'dry run' with the battery removed. Ensure that the Hold
Down Clamp does not interfere with the path of the blade, or with
the path of any other part of the cutting head as it is lowered to
make the cut.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Caution: All mitre saws should be inspected (particularly for the
correct functioning of the safety guards) before each use. Do not
insert the battery until a safety inspection has been carried out.
WARNING: Ensure that the operator is adequately trained in
the use, adjustment and maintenance of this machine, before
inserting the battery and commencing operations. To reduce
the risk of injury, always remove the battery before changing
or adjusting any of the machines parts. Compare the direction
of the rotation arrow on the guard to the direction arrow on the
blade. The blade teeth should always point downward at the
front of the saw. Check the tightness of the arbor screw.
BODY & HAND POSITIONING (Fig. 34)
• Never place your hands within the 'no hands zone' (at least 100mm
away from the blade).
• Keep hands away from the path of the blade.
• Secure the work-piece firmly to the table and against the fence to
prevent any movement.
• Use a Hold Down Clamp if possible but check that it is so
positioned that it does not interfere with the path of the blade or
other moving machine parts.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip
could cause your fingers or a hand to move into the blade.
• Before attempting a cut, make a 'dry run' with the battery removed
so that you can see the path of the blade.
• Keep your hands in position until the ON/OFF trigger switch has
been released and the blade has completely stopped.
To install/remove the battery
To install the battery insert firmly into the tool until you hear an
audible click, ensuring the battery is fully seated and latched
into position.
To remove the battery depress the battery release button and
pull the battery out of the tool.
