• Press and hold the Cutting Head Release Lever to release the
Cutting Head.
• Gently lower the Cutting Head to its lowest position,
cutting through the workpiece.
• After the cut is completed, turn off the motor by releasing
the trigger switch. Allow the blade to come to a complete
stop. Allow the Cutting Head to rise to its upper position.
• Only remove your hands or the workpiece from the machine
when the Cutting Head is in its upper position with the blade
teeth completely covered by the Retractable Blade Guard.
6. Mitre Cutting
Any angle from 45˚ left to 45˚ right is available, and a protractor
scale can be found to the front of the Rotary Table.
Positive stops are provided for every 5˚ of angular movement.
Note: The rotary table must always be locked into position with
the Mitre Angle Locking Screw even if a positive stop is selected.
To select a Mitre Angle:
• Loosen the Mitre Angle Locking Screw. (Fig.12) This is found
at the front RH side of the table near the 30˚ index mark.
• Turn the Rotary Table to the required angle. To aid setting,
an index mark is machined into the table just in front of the
table insert.
• Tighten the Mitre Angle Locking Screw securely when the
desired angle has been selected.
A Mitre Cut can now be made using the same techniques as
previously described in Chop Cutting.
