OPERATION
Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for
the wheel to get wet before moving the material into the
wheel.
Hold the material firmly against the rip fence and slowly
feed the material into the cutting wheel.
When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the
cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before
removing any part of the material.
TO MAKE A DIAGONAL CUT
See Figure 29.
Diagonal cuts are also referred to as "long point-to-long
point cuts".
NOTE: Be sure the drop fence is in the fully raised position
when using the miter guide.
Using a straight edge or square, draw a line on the tile
with a marker or grease pencil.
Set the miter guide to 45° for right side or 0° for left side
use. Tighten the lock knob, and lock in place.
Make sure miter guide is not in the cut path.
Place the material on the table and firmly against the
miter guide and fence.
Make sure the material is clear of the cutting wheel before
turning on the saw.
Turn the on/off switch to the on position.
Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for
the wheel to get wet before moving the material into the
wheel.
Hold the material firmly against the miter guide and drop
fence and slowly feed the material into the cutting wheel.
When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the
cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before
removing any part of the material.
TO MAKE A MITER CUT
See Figure 30.
Miter cuts are used for cutting outside and inside corners
on material, at any angle to the wheel other than 90°. Miter
cuts tend to "creep" during cutting. This can be controlled
by holding the workpiece securely against the miter guide.
NOTE: Be sure the drop fence is in the fully raised position
when using the miter guide.
Using a marker or grease pencil, mark the area to be cut
on material.
Set the miter guide to the desired setting, lock in place,
and tighten the lock knob.
Make sure miter guide is not in the cut path.
Place the material on the table and firmly against the
miter guide and fence.
Make sure the material is clear of the cutting wheel before
turning on the saw.
Turn the on/off switch to the on position.
Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for

wheel.
Hold the material firmly against the miter guide and fence
and slowly feed the material into the cutting wheel.
When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the
