(3) Rotate the turntable and set the indicator to line up with
the desired angle of the miter scale. At this time, when
using the positive stop function, pull the detent lever in
the direction of the arrow near the desired angle as
shown in Fig. 15, release the detent lever, and move
the turntable to secure it in place at the desired angle
via the positive stop function. (0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, and
45°)
(4) Push down the miter lock handle to secure the turntable
in place.
Detent lever (Fig. 15)
The detent lever allows for the table to be micro adjusted,
disengaging the positive detent stops feature. When a
required miter angle is close to a positive detent stop, this
detent lever prevents the wedge on the positive stop lever
from slipping into that detent slot on the base.
7. LED lighting system (Fig. 16) [XACT CUT LED™]
CAUTION
Do not stare at operating lamp. Staring into the light
beam may result in serious injury or vision loss.
The LED lighting system [XACT CUT LED™] casts the
shadow of the blade onto the workpiece. This results in
greater accuracy of cuts and requires no adjustments.
To use this feature, turn the LED light switch on.
Bring the motor head down so the blade is approximately
6 mm from the workpiece. The shadow of the blade will be
projected onto the workpiece, indicating where the blade
teeth will make contact as the cut is made.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
WARNING
○ To avoid personal injury, never remove or place a
workpiece on the table while the tool is being operated.
○ Never place your limbs inside of the line next to warning
sign while the tool is being operated (see Fig. 17). This
may cause hazardous conditions.
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
Pull the switch while pressing the switch lock to make
the saw blade rotate. (Fig. 18)
After the switch is turned on, even if the switch lock is
released, the saw blade continues to rotate as long as
the switch is pulled.
When the switch is released, the brake is applied to the
saw blade rotation and the saw blade stops.
2. Turn on the LED light
Press the LED light switch to switch the LED light.
3. Using the Vise Assembly (Standard accessory)
(Fig. 19)
WARNING
Always firmly 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 confirm 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.
(1) The vise assembly can be mounted on the base.
(2) Turn the upper knob and securely fix the workpiece in
position (Fig. 19).
NOTE
When using the vise, make sure that the tool is free of
any excessive contact when the unit is swung or slid.
4. Cutting operation
(1) As shown in Fig. 20 the width of the saw blade is the
width of the cut. Therefore, slide the workpiece to the
right (viewed from the operator's position) when length
ⓑ is desired, or to the left when length ⓐ is desired.
Turn the LED light, project the shadow of the blade onto
the workpiece, align the left side or right side of shadow
of the blade with the ink line on the workpiece.
(2) After turning on the switch and checking that the saw
blade is rotating at maximum speed, slowly push down
the handle and bring the saw blade in the vicinity of the
material to be cut.
(3) Once the saw blade contacts the workpiece, push the
handle down gradually to cut into the workpiece.
(4) After cutting the workpiece to the desired depth, turn
the power tool OFF and let the saw blade stop
completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece to return it to the full retract position.
WARNING
○ Confirm that the trigger switch is turned OFF and the
power plug has been removed from the receptacle.
whenever the tool is not in use.
○ Always turn the power off and let the saw blade stop
completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece. If the handle is raised while the saw blade is
still rotating, the cut-off piece may become jammed
against the saw blade causing fragments to scatter
about dangerously.
○ Every time one cutting of deep-cutting operation is
finished, turn the switch off, and check that the saw
blade has stopped. Then raise the handle, and return it
to the full retract position.
○ Be absolutely sure to remove the cut material from the
top of the turntable, and then proceed to the next step.
○ Continued cutting operation can result in overload of the
motor. Touch the motor and if it's hot, stop your cutting
operation at once and rest for 10 minutes or so, and
then restart your cutting operation.
CAUTION
○ For maximum dimensions for cutting, refer to
"SPECIFICATIONS" table.
○ Increased pressure on the handle will not increase the
cutting speed. On the contrary, too much pressure may
result in overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting
efficiency.
5. Cutting narrow workpieces (Press cutting)
(Fig. 21)
Slide the hinge down to holder (A), then tighten the slide
securing knob. Lower the handle to cut the workpiece.
Using the power tool this way will permit cutting of
workpieces of up to 107 mm square.
6. Cutting large workpieces (Fig. 22)
There may be case when a complete cutting cannot be
done depending on the height of workpiece. In this
case, mount an auxiliary board with the 6 mm flat head
screws and the 6 mm nuts using the 7 mm holes on the
fence surface (two holes on each side). Refer to
"SPECIFICATIONS" for the thickness of the auxiliary
board.
NOTE
When cutting a workpiece exceeding 107 mm in height
in right-angle cutting or 70 mm in left bevel angle cutting
or 45 mm in right bevel angle cutting, adjust the lower
limit position so that the base of the motor head will not
come in contact with the workpiece.
To adjust the lower limit position of the saw blade, follow
the procedure (1) shown in Fig. 23.
