IMPORTANT WARNING
To get the best from your saw and ensure it is correctly set ensure the following is
correct:
(a) The saw blade is tensioned sufficiently to avoid ‘whip’ which will cause the blade to
deviate from a true cut.
(b) The blade is ‘in line’ and central to the frame.
(c) The workpiece is square and true to the base casting.
(d) Tension is always released after use.
(e) The correct type of blade for the application is used.
(f) After assembly and setting has been carefully carried out, always test your mitre
saw and the angles with some scrap timber to ensure the machine is assembled
correclty and cutting true.
