Technical Specifications

Setup Guide

1. Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect the saw and accessories for any signs of damage during transit. If any parts are missing or damaged, do not operate the saw and contact customer support immediately.

2. Securing the Saw

For stable and safe operation, it is highly recommended to secure the mini benchtop saw to a sturdy workbench or surface. The base of the saw has pre-drilled holes for mounting. Use appropriate fasteners (not included) to firmly attach the saw to prevent movement during operation.

3. Blade Installation (if not pre-installed)

Ensure the saw is unplugged before attempting to install or change the blade. Use the provided L-wrench to loosen the blade retaining screw. Carefully place the 2-inch blade onto the arbor, ensuring the teeth are oriented correctly for cutting (refer to the arrow on the blade for rotation direction). Securely tighten the retaining screw. Always check for proper blade seating before operation.

Operating Instructions

1. Preparing the Workpiece

Place the material to be cut onto the saw's base. Use the integrated C-clamp to firmly secure the workpiece. Adjust the clamp by turning the red knob to match the width of your material. Ensure the material is stable and will not shift during the cut.

2. Adjusting Miter Angle (Optional)

If a miter cut is required, loosen the appropriate adjustment knob on the base and pivot the fence to the desired angle between 0 and 45 degrees. Tighten the knob securely once the angle is set.

3. Making a Cut

1. Plug the saw into a standard 110V AC outlet.
2. Hold the saw handle firmly.
3. Press the red safety switch located near the handle, then press the main power switch (red toggle switch on top) to start the motor.
4. Allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning the cut.
5. Slowly and steadily lower the saw blade through the workpiece. Do not force the cut; let the saw do the work.
6. Once the cut is complete, release the power switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before raising the saw.
7. Unclamp the workpiece and remove it from the cutting area.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your saw. Always unplug the saw before performing any maintenance.

1. Cleaning

• After each use, clear sawdust and debris from the cutting area, blade guard, and motor vents using a brush or compressed air.
• Wipe down external surfaces with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

2. Blade Care

• Inspect the blade regularly for sharpness and damage. A dull or damaged blade can cause kickback and poor cuts.
• Replace the blade when it becomes dull or damaged. Use only 2-inch blades with a 3/8-inch arbor.

3. Carbon Brush Replacement

The motor uses carbon brushes which wear down over time. If the saw experiences reduced power or intermittent operation, the carbon brushes may need replacement. Refer to the saw's motor housing for access to the brush caps. Replace both brushes at the same time. Use only genuine replacement carbon brushes.
