CAUTION
○ It is dangerous to remove or install the workpiece while
the saw blade is turning.
○ When sawing, clean off the shavings from the turntable.
○ If the shavings accumulate too much, the saw blade from
the cutting material will be exposed. Never subject your
hand or anything else to go near the exposed blade.
1. Switch operation (Fig. 11)
2. Using the Vise Assembly (Standard accessory)
(Fig. 12)
The vice assembly can be attached on the right or left of
the fence.
When attaching the vice assembly to the fence, matching
the groove or the v-groove of the vice shaft to the upper
surface of the fence will match the tip of the 6 mm knob
bolt at the rear of the fence to the groove of the vice shaft.
This will allow 3 levels of height adjustment for the vice
shaft.
(1) Adjust so that the tip of the 6 mm knob bolt matches the
groove of the vice shaft, and tighten the 6 mm knob bolt
to secure the vice shaft.
(2) Adjust the position of the screw holder, and tighten the
6 mm wing bolt on the rear of the screw holder to secure
the screw holder.
(3) Make sure to press the material against the surface of
the fence and secure the material by tightening the knob.
WARNING
Always fi rmly clamp or vise to secure the workpiece to
the fence; otherwise the workpiece might be thrust from
the table and cause bodily harm.
CAUTION
Always confi rm that the motor head does not contact the
vise assembly when it is lowered for cutting. If there is
any danger that it may do so, move the vise assembly to
a position where it will not contact the saw blade.
3. Cutting a groove on the table insert (Fig. 13)
A groove has to be cut in the table insert, before starting
operation. Secure a piece of wood about 125 mm (5")
wide to the turntable with the vise assembly, to prevent
the breakage of the table insert.
After the switch has been turned on and the saw blade
has reached its maximum speed, slowly lower the
handle to cut the piece of wood, and then a groove on
the table insert.
CAUTION
Do not cut the groove too quicky; otherwise the guard
might become damaged.
4. Positioning the table insert (Fig. 14)
Table inserts are installed on the turntable. When
shipping the tool from the factory, the table inserts are
so fi xed that the saw blade does not contact them. The
burr of the bottom surface of the workpiece is remarkably
reduced, if the table insert is fi xed so that the gap
between the side surface of the table insert and the saw
blade will be minimum. Before using the tool, eliminate
this gap in accordance with the following procedure.
(1) Loosen the four 5 mm pan head screws securing the
cutting edge plate and with the gap between the left and
right cutting edge plates widened, temporarily tighten all
the 5mm pan head screws.
(2) Then fi x a workpiece (about 200 mm wide) with the vise
assembly and cut it off . Align the cutting face with the
edge of the cutting edge plate, and tighten all the 5 mm
pan head screws.
CAUTION
After adjusting the table insert for right angle cutting, the
table insert will be cut to some extent if it is used for bevel
angle cutting.
When bevel cutting operation is required, adjust the
table insert for bevel angle cutting.
5. Confi rmation for use of sub fence (A) (Fig. 15)
WARNING
This power tool is equipped with a sub fence (A).
In the case of direct angle cutting and left bevel angle
cutting, use the sub fence (A). Then, you can realize
stable cutting of the material with a wide back face.
When right angle cutting, loosen the 6 mm knob bolt,
then remove sub fence (A). Failure to do so may result in
the main body or saw blade coming into contact with the
sub fence (A) and causing injury.
6. Confi rmation for use of sub fence (B) (Fig. 15)
WARNING
When left angle cutting, loosen the 6 mm knob bolt, then
slide the sub fence (B) outward. Failure to do so may
result in the main body or saw blade coming into contact
with the sub fence (B) and causing injury.
This power tool is equipped with a sub fence (B). In the
case of direct angle cutting and right bevel angle cutting,
use the sub fence (B). Then, you can realize stable
cutting of the material with a wide back face. When left
angle cutting, loosen the 6 mm knob bolt, then slide the
sub fence (B) outward, as shown in Fig. 15.
7. Using an ink line (Adjusting the guard) (Fig. 16)
(1) Right angle cutting
Loosen the 6 mm knob bolt and contact the tip of the
guard with the workpiece.
Aligning the ink line on the workpiece with the groove of
the guard, the workpiece is cut on the ink line.
(2) Miter cutting and compound cutting (Miter cutting +
bevel cutting)
Upon lowering the motor section, the lower guard is
raised and the saw blade appears.
Align the ink line with the saw blade.
CAUTION
In some arrangements when the turntable is rotated, the
guard projects from the fence surface. Loosen the 6 mm
knob bolt and push the guard to the retracted position.
Never lift the lower guard while the saw blade is rotating.
When cutting at an angle of 45° to the right or more,
please slide the guard to the rear. (Fig. 16)
The guard and sub-fence (A) and sub-fence (B) will not
only make contact and adversely aff ect cutting accuracy,
this could also result in damage to the guard.
8. Position adjustment of laser line
Ink lining can be easily made on this tool to the laser
marker. A switch lights up the laser marker (Fig. 1).
Depending upon your cutting choice, the laser line can
be aligned with the left side of the cutting width (saw
blade) or the ink line on the right side.
The laser line is adjusted to the width of the saw blade at
the time of factory shipment. Adjust the positions of the
saw blade and the laser line taking the following steps to
suit the use of your choice.
(1) Light up the laser marker and make a groove of about 5
mm deep on the workpiece that is about 20 mm in height
and 150 mm in width. Hold the grooved workpiece by
vise as it is and do not move it. For grooving work, refer
to "19. Groove cutting procedures".
(2) Then, turn the adjuster and shift the laser line. (If you turn
the adjuster clockwise, the laser line will shift to the right and
if you turn it counterclockwise, the laser line will shift to the
left.) When you work with the ink line aligned with the left side
of the saw blade, align the laser line with the left end of the
groove (Fig. 17). When you align it with the right side of the
saw blade, align the laser line with the right side of the groove.
(3) After adjusting the position of the laser line, draw a right-
angle ink line on the workpiece and align the ink line
with the laser line. When aligning the ink line, slide the
workpiece little by little and secure it by vise at a position
where the laser line overlaps with the ink line. Work on
the grooving again and check the position of the laser
line. If you wish to change the laser line's position, make
adjustments again following the steps from (1) to (3).
