2. Slide (push) cutting (cutting wide workpieces)
Loosen the clamp screw on the turn base counterclock-
wise so that the carriage can slide freely. Secure the
workpiece with the vise. Pull the carriage toward you
fully. Switch on the tool without the blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed. Press
down the handle and PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD
THE GUIDE FENCE AND THROUGH THE WORK-
PIECE. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool
and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COME TO A COM-
PLETE STOP before returning the blade to its fully ele-
vated position.
CAUTION:
• Whenever performing the slide cut, FIRST PULL THE
CARRIAGE TOWARD YOU FULLY and press down the
handle to the fully lowered position, then PUSH THE
CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE. NEVER
START THE CUT WITH THE CARRIAGE NOT FULLY
PULLED TOWARD YOU. If you perform the slide cut
without pulling the carriage fully or if you perform the
slide cut toward your direction, the blade may kickback
unexpectedly with the potential to cause serious
PERSONAL INJURY.
• Never perform the slide cut with the handle locked in the
lowered position by pressing the stopper pin.
• Never loosen the clamp screw which secures the
carriage while the blade is rotating. This may cause
serious injury.

piece with a vise. Make sure the carriage is pulled all the
way back toward the operator. Switch on the tool without
the blade making any contact and wait until the blade
attains full speed. Then gently lower the handle to the
fully lowered position while applying pressure in parallel
with the blade and PUSH THE CARRIAGE TOWARD
THE GUIDE FENCE TO CUT THE WORKPIECE. When
