KNOW YOUR SAW

Before attempting to use your saw, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements. „ If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Your saw has a precision built electric motor. It should be connected only to a power supply of the type speci>ed by its rating plate. Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and overheating. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply. LASER GUIDE The laser guide radiation used in saw is Class 2M with maximum <5mW and 650nm wavelengths. These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause :ash blindness. WARNING WARNING DO NOT stare directly at the laser beam. A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam, please observe all safety rules as follows: Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is suf>cient to in:ict serious injury. „ The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. „ Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the work piece. OPERATION „ The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at personnel and shall be prevented from being directed towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s. SWITCH „ Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work piece without reflective surfaces such as wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator. „ Release switch trigger to turn your saw OFF. See Figure 1. „ To turn your saw on, depress the switch. LOCK-ON BUTTON See Figure 1. Your saw is equipped with a lock-on feature, which is convenient when continuous cutting for extended periods of time is required. To lock-on, depress the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button located on the side of the handle, then release switch trigger. Release lock-on button and your saw will continue running. „ Do not change the laser guide assembly with a different type. Repair must only be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorised agent. „ Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use to instruct other users. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions too. To release the lock, depress the switch trigger and release. If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and your saw becomes disconnected from power supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately. SPECIFICATIONS Voltage 230 V Input power 680 W 50 Hz

English WARNING WARNING To avoid serious personal injury, do not use saw without safety guard properly in place. Before connecting your saw to power supply source, always check to be sure it is not in lock-on position (depress and release switch trigger). Failure to do so could result in accidental starting of your saw resulting in possible serious injury. Do not lock the trigger on jobs where your saw may need to be stopped suddenly. VARIABLE SPEED See Figure 9. Your saw has a variable speed control selector designed to allow operator control and adjustment of speed and power limits. The speed and power of your saw can be increased or decreased by rotating the variable speed control selector in the direction of the arrows. NOTE: Hold your saw in normal operating position and turn the variable speed control selector counterclockwise to increase speed and power. Turn clockwise to decrease speed and power. If you wish to lock the switch on at a given speed, depress the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button, and release the switch trigger. Next, adjust the variable speed control selector until the desired speed is reached. Avoid running your saw at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause your saw to become overheated. If this occurs, cool your saw by running it without a load and at full speed. TRANSPARENT GUARD See Figure 3. For your protection, a transparent guard has been included with the saw. It is used to shield wood particles from the eyes. The transparent guard is attached by placing it in front of the blade area of the base and snapping it into the tabs on the sides of the saw base. For removal, simply pull the tap of the transparent guard. Make sure the saw is unplugged before installation and removal. NOTE: The transparent guard can only be used for straight cutting.

TO INSTALL BLADES

See Figure 3 - 4. „ Unplug the tool. WARNING The following guidelines may be used in determining correct speed for various applications: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious injury. „ LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is required, for example starting cuts. „ Turn the tool upside down. „ MEDIUM speed is suitable for cutting hard metals, plastics and laminates. „ Pull the tap of the transparent guard. „ HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is required, for example cutting wood. Soft metals such as aluminum, brass and copper also require high speeds. „ Rotate the quick release lever counter-clockwise and hold in position. „ Insert the saw blade into the groove in the roller guide, making sure the back of the saw blade is properly positioned in the groove. NOTE: Only T-shank saw blades can be used. BLADE STORAGE „ Release the quick release lever. See Figure 2. A convenient feature of your saw is the blade storage. The blade storage area is located on the back of dust port. It is convenient for storing extra blades when not in use. „ Install the transparent guard. „ To open: Pull the door down with your thumb or finger. „ Push the saw blade into the blade clamp as far as it will go. „ Place blades in blade storage area. WARNING „ To close: Push the door up with your thumb or finger. To avoid possible serious injury, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields. Keep hands and >ngers away, from the motor housing and blade clamp and do not reach underneath work while blade is cutting.

English Scroll cuts can be made with your saw by guiding the direction of the cut with applied pressure on the handle. WARNING Do not insert saw blade into air vents. They could come in contact with electrically live internal parts and cause electric shock, resulting in serious injury. WARNING Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in broken blades or damage to the material being cut. WARNING Your saw should never be connected to power supply when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, installing or removing blades or when not in use. Disconnecting your saw will prevent accidental starting which could cause serious injury. ANGLE CUTTING (BEVEL CUTTING) See Figure 7. Bevel cutting angles may be adjusted from 0° to 45° right or left. Angles for cuts from 0° to 45° in 15° increments are marked on a scale on both the left and right side of the base. The use of a protractor is recommended when accurate cuts are required. GENERAL CUTTING See Figure 5. Rest the front of the saw base on the workpiece and align cutting edge of the blade with the line on your workpiece. Make sure the power cord is out of the way of saw blade and not in the line of cut. Start your saw and move it forward on the work surface. Apply downward pressure to keep the saw steady and only enough forward pressure to keep the blade cutting.

ADJUSTING THE ANGLE

See Figure 3, 7. „ Release the transparent guard. „ Release the bevel lock lever until the base can be moved. „ Slide base forward slightly to release the base from the tab on the motor housing. WARNING „ Align the mark on the base of the desired angle with the edge of the motor housing. Do not force your saw. Forcing your saw may overheat the motor and break saw blades. „ Once the desired angle is reached, slide the base back until the tab on the motor housing aligns with the appropriate notch on the rear of the base. ORBITAL MOTION See Figure 5. The blade of your saw cuts in orbital motion. This feature is adjustable and provides faster and more ef>cient cutting. With orbital motion the blade cuts through your work in the upstroke but does not drag across your work in the downstroke. „ Push the bevel lock lever back to secure the base. „ Install the transparent guard. NOTE: The transparent guard can only be used for straight cutting.

TO MAKE A PLUNGE CUT

„ Higher settings (H) should be used when fast cutting in soft material. See Figure 8. „ Lower (L) settings should be used when cutting materials with more resistance. WARNING To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage to the material being cut, always use extreme caution when making plunge cuts. We do not recommend plunge cutting on materials other than wood. STRAIGHT CUT See Figure 5. A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or straightedge to the workpiece and guiding the edge of your saw against it. Make the cut from one direction only, do not cut halfway to complete the cut from the opposite end. „ Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece. „ Set the cutting angle at 0°. „ Tilt your saw forward so that it rests on the front edge of the base and blade will not come in contact with the workpiece when the saw is turned on. English „ Make sure the blade is inside the area to be cut. TO REMOVE: „ Start your saw by using high speed and slowly lower the blade into the workpiece until the blade cuts through the wood. „ Unplug your saw. „ Continue lowering the blade into the workpiece until the base rests flat on the work surface, then move the saw forward to complete the cut. TO CONNECT DUST EXTRACTION SYSTEM (NOT INCLUDED) „ Directly pull the dust port out. „ Unplug the tool. „ Use only the 7 teeth per inch blade for this type of cut. „ Connect the nozzle of the dust collection system to the dust port. METAL CUTTING Many kinds of metals can be cut with your saw. Be careful not to twist or bend the blades. Do not force. EDGE GUIDE See Figure 11. An edge guide is available for use with your saw and can be used for making crosscuts and rip cuts. If the blade chatters or vibrates excessively, use a >nertooth blade or higher speed. If blade heats excessively, use lower speed. If blade teeth become >lled or clogged when cutting soft metals, such as aluminum, use a coarser-tooth blade or lower speed. We recommend the use of oil when cutting metals to keep blades cool, increase cutting action, and prolong blade life. Clamp the work >rmly and cut close to the clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the workpiece being cut. TO INSTALL: „ Unplug your saw. „ Insert arm of the edge guide through the two slots in the base of your saw. „ Adjust edge guide to the desired width and lock in place with the edge guide screw. When cutting conduit, pipe or angle iron, clamp work in a vise if possible and saw close to the vise. To cut thin sheet materials, "sandwich" the material between hardboard or plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and material tearing. By doing this, the material will be cut smoothly. Lay out your pattern or line of cut on top of the “sandwich”. WARNING When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. IMPORTANT LASER GUIDE See Figure 12. Depress the laser guide switch to generate a red laser beam on the work surface in front of the saw. Use the laser to guide the saw along the line of cut. When cutting metal, keep exposed portion of saw bar clean and free of metal chips by wiping frequently with an oily cloth. Use extreme caution in disposing of oily cloth after completion of job to prevent potential >re hazard. LED WORKLIGHT See Figure 12. The screwdriver has a built-in LED worklight. This feature is convenient when working in close or tight areas where additional light is needed. Whenever the switch trigger is depressed, the LED worklight will illuminate. DUSTLESS FEATURE See Figure 10. For dustless operation, a dust port has been provided with your saw. It attaches to the saw base. This allows the air to :ow out around the blade blowing sawdust and chips away from the operator's view of the line of cut.

LIVE TOOL INDICATOR

This tool features a live tool indicator which illuminates as soon as the tool is connected to the supply. This warns the user that the tool is connected and will operate when the switch is pressed. TO INSTALL: „ Unplug your saw. „ Attach the dust port to the back of the base. You can hear a click sound when it is locked securely. „ Connect exhaust opening to dust collection system.
