5.1 Powering On/Off

• To turn the saw ON, press the green "ON" button.
• To turn the saw OFF, press the red "OFF" button.
• Always allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning a cut.

5.2 Adjusting Cutting Height

The cutting height can be adjusted to suit the thickness of your workpiece.

1. Rotate the handwheel on the front of the saw to raise or lower the blade.
2. For straight cuts (90°), the maximum cutting depth is 72 mm.
3. For bevel cuts (45°), the maximum cutting depth is 50 mm.

This image illustrates the saw set up for a straight cut, showing the blade at a 90-degree angle to the table, capable of cutting material up to 72mm thick.

This image shows the saw configured for a bevel cut, with the blade tilted to a 45-degree angle, allowing for cuts up to 50mm thick.

5.3 Adjusting Bevel Angle

The blade can be tilted for bevel cuts from -45° to +45°.

1. Loosen the bevel locking knob.
2. Adjust the blade angle using the angle guide and scale.
3. Tighten the bevel locking knob to secure the angle.

This image highlights the miter gauge and the mechanism for adjusting the blade's bevel angle, enabling precise cuts between -45 and +45 degrees.

5.4 Using the Parallel Guide

The parallel guide ensures straight and consistent rip cuts.

1. Position the parallel guide to the desired width using the scale on the table.
2. Lock the guide firmly in place using the locking mechanism.
3. Feed the workpiece against the guide for a straight cut.

This image demonstrates the use of the parallel guide, which is essential for achieving accurate and consistent rip cuts by keeping the workpiece aligned with the blade.

5.5 Using the Push Rod

Always use the push rod when cutting small pieces or when your hands are close to the blade to maintain safety.

This image illustrates the push rod, a critical safety accessory used to feed material through the saw without placing hands near the blade. It also shows the dust collection port for connecting a vacuum cleaner.

5.6 Dust Collection

Connect a shop vacuum to the dust collection port to minimize sawdust and maintain a clear view of your workpiece.
