English
(1) Lower the motor head, and turn the 6 mm depth
adjustment bolt and make adjustments so that there
can be a clearance of 2 mm to 3 mm between the lower
limit position of the motor head and the top of the
workpiece at the saw blade's lower limit position where
the head of the 6 mm depth adjustment bolt contacts
the hinge.
7. Cutting wide workpieces (Slide cutting) (Fig. 24)
(1) Workpieces up to 107 mm high and 312 mm wide:
Loosen the slide securing knob, grip the handle and
slide the saw blade forward. Then press down on the
handle and slide the saw blade backward to cut the
workpiece.
This facilitates cutting of workpieces of up to 107 mm in
height and 312 mm in width.
(2) Workpieces up to 120 mm high and 260 mm wide:
Workpieces of up to 120 mm in height and up to
260 mm in width can be cut in the same manner as
described in paragraph 6-(1) above.
WARNING
○ For slide cutting, follow the procedures. Forward slide
cutting (toward the operator) is very dangerous
because the saw blade could kick upward from the
workpiece. Therefore, always slide the handle away
from the operator.
○ Always return the carriage to the full rear position after
each crosscut operation in order to reduce the risk of
injury.
○ Never put your hand on the miter lock handle during the
cutting operation because the saw blade comes close
to the miter lock handle when the motor head is
lowered.
CAUTION
○ When cutting a workpiece of 120 mm height, adjust the
lower limit position of the motor head so that the gap
between the lower edge of the motor head and the
workpiece will be 2 to 3 mm at the lower limit position.
○ If the handle is pressed down with excessive or lateral
force, the saw blade may vibrate during the cutting
operation and cause unwanted cutting marks on the
workpiece, thus reducing the quality of the cut.
Accordingly, press the handle down gently and
carefully.
○ In slide cutting, gently push the handle back (rearwards)
in a single, smooth operation. Stopping the handle
movement during the cut will cause unwanted cutting
marks on the workpiece.
8. Bevel cutting procedures (Fig. 25)
WARNING
When changing the oblique angle, hold down the motor
head. If the motor head moves to an oblique angle
suddenly, it may result in injury or damage to the main
body.
(1) Loosen the bevel lock handle and bevel the saw blade
to the left or to the right.
To change the bevel angle to the right, loosen the bevel
lock handle, then pull out the set pin (A) toward the
front, and tilt the motor head to the right.
When the motor head is straight upright, the set pin (A)
is held tightly in place, so tilt the motor head slightly to
the left when pulling out the set pin (A) before tilting the
motor head to the right.
(2) Adjust the bevel angle to the desired setting while
watching the bevel angle scale and indicator, then
secure the bevel lock handle.
CAUTION
Always check that the bevel lock handle is secured and
the motor head is clamped. If you attempt angle cutting
without clamping the motor head, then the motor head
might shift unexpectedly causing injuries.
WARNING
○ When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side
of the blade, the short cut-off portion will come to rest
on the right or left side of the saw blade. 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. When stopping the bevel cutting operation
halfway, start cutting after pulling back the motor head
to the initial position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the
lower guard to be caught in the cutting groove of the
workpiece and to contact the saw blade.
○ When right angle cutting, loosen the 6 mm wing bolt,
then slide the sub fence (A) outward and remove it.
○ When left angle cutting, loosen the 6 mm wing bolt, then
slide the sub fence (B) outward.
CAUTION
When cutting a workpiece of 75 mm height in the left
45° bevel cutting position or a workpiece of 50 mm
height in the right 45° bevel cutting position, adjust the
lower limit position of the motor head so that the gap
between the lower edge of the motor head and the
workpiece will be 2 to 3 mm at the lower limit position
(refer to "11. Checking the saw blade lower limit
position" on page 18).
NOTE
The bevel lock handle adopts a clutch system. When
contacting the bevel lock handle and the main body,
pull the bevel lock handle in the direction of the arrow
mark as illustrated in Fig. 25, and change the direction
of the bevel lock handle.
9. Miter cutting procedures (Fig. 26)
(1) Unlock the miter table by lifting up on the miter lock
handle.
(2) While lightly pressing down on the positive stop lever
until it engages the detent lever, grasp the miter lock
handle and rotate the table left or right to the desired
angle.
(3) Once the desired miter angle is achieved, press down
on the miter lock handle to secure the table into
position.
(4) If the desired miter angle is one of the nine positive
stops noted below, please see the Miter detent lever
section on Fig. 15.
(5) Turn the LED light on and position the workpiece on the
table for pre-alignment of your cut.
CAUTION
Always check that the miter lock handle is secured and
the turntable is clamped.
If you attempt angle cutting without clamping the
turntable, then the turntable might shift unexpectedly
causing injuries.
NOTE
○ Positive stops are provided at the right and left of the 0°
center setting, at 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of the indicator
are properly aligned.
○ Operation of the saw with the miter scale and indicator
out of alignment will result in poor cutting precision.
10. Compound cutting procedures
Compound cutting can be performed by following the
instructions in 8 and 9 above. For maximum dimensions
for compound cutting, refer to "SPECIFICATIONS"
table.
