To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean. the operator is adequately trained in the use , adjustment and operation of the machine. Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area whilst the machine is running and the saw head is not in the rest position. The cover returns to its original position when the cut is completed and the handle is raised. In the interest of your personal safety, always maintain the safety cover in good condition. Any irregular operation of the safety cover should be corrected immediately. If the see-through safety cover becomes dirty, or sawdust adheres to it in such a way that the blade and/ or workpiece is no longer easily visible, unplug the saw and clean the cover carefully with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based cleaners on the plastic cover. The use of the dust bag makes cutting operations clean and dust collection easy. A thin piece of cut off material could otherwise contact the coasting blade and be thrown around dangerously. The fence plate is designed to prevent smaller cutting scraps from jamming inside the blade base. The fence plate moves right or left automatically as the turn base is rotated. Hold down the base and move the handle to turn the turn base until the pointer on the base indicates the desired angle on the turn base. CAUTION: When turning the turn base, be sure to raise the handle fully. This tool was carefully adjusted and aligned for squareness of cut at the factory, but rough handling may have affected the alignment. Lower the handle and make sure that the blade is centered in the middle of the kerf board. Loosen the three bolts holding the arm with the hex wrench and leave them in a semi-tightened condition. Loosen the four bolts holding the guide fence and leave them in a semi-tightened condition. Turn the turn base so that 0° graduation on the turn base is aligned with the pointer on the base. 21) Square the side of the blade with the face of the guide fence using a triangular rule, try-square, etc. [. . . ] , more than half the workpiece overhangs the base), use the holder (standard equipment) or other supports that are as high as the top surface of the adjusting plate. To install the holder on the base, raise the left side of the base slightly and insert the holder into the slot in the base. Place the tool on a level table or work bench with the left end of the base protruding from the table or work bench surface.
