TRIGGER SWITCH (FIG. 11)
This tool is started and stopped by squeezing and
releasing the trigger switch (18). To prevent the tool
from being started accidentally, the trigger can only
be operated if the safety button (19) is depressed first.
The safety button can be depressed with the thumb
leaving the other fingers free to squeeze the trigger
switch. It is not necessary to maintain pressure
on the safety button once the trigger switch has been
depressed.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (FIG. 12)
DANGER!
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THE CUTTING
AREA WHEN OPERATING THE TOOL.
KEEP THE CORD AWAY FROM THE CUTTING
AREA AND POSITION IT SO THAT IT WILL NOT
GET CAUGHT ON THE WORKPIECE DURING
THE CUTTING OPERATION.
When cutting, use steady and even pressure
(DO NOT FORCE) in order to obtain a uniform cut. Cut
at a speed suited to the workpiece. (Cut slowly if the
workpiece is hard.) Inspect the saw blade frequently
and replace or sharpen it if dull, to avoid overloading
the motor.
CUTTING POSITION (FIG. 13A, 13B)
When cutting a workpiece at 0°, use point "A" of the
base plate line guide (20) and move the saw along the
pencilled line you have drawn. When cutting at 45°, use
point "B". This line guide shows an approximate line of
cut. Make a sample cut in scrap lumber to determine the
actual line of cut.
CAUTION!
When ripping, the rip fence should only touch
the workpiece slightly. Do not force.
USING THE LASER GUIDE (FOR EWS-1366
ONLY) (FIG. 14)
WARNING
Do not stare into the laser beam or turn the laser
on when the tool is not in use. Failure to do so
could result in possible serious personal injury.
The laser unit comes from the factory already
installed and aligned.
NOTE: Make a trial cut on a piece of scrap to ensure
laser is aligned. Adjusting the laser may be necessary.
