Attaching to a Guide Rail
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
by the guide rail manufacturer before beginning
work.
Guide rail systems allow for precise cutting and
protect the workpiece surface. When used with ad
-
ditional accessories, exact angled cuts, mitre cuts,
and fitting work can be accomplished with a guide
rail system.
1.
Remove battery pack.
2. Place the saw onto the guide rail.
3. Tighten both rail adjustment knobs until saw locks
on rail.
4. Loosen the rail adjustments knobs in small incre
-
ments until the saw just begins to slide freely on
rail. For best results, the guide clearance of the
saw must be very small.
Preparing (Trimming) a Guide Rail
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
by the guide rail manufacturer before beginning
work.
1.
Remove battery pack.
2. Place the saw onto the guide rail.
3. Tighten both rail adjustment knobs until saw locks
on rail.
4. Loosen the rail adjustments knobs in small incre
-
ments until the saw just begins to slide freely on
rail. For best results, the guide clearance of the
saw must be very small.
5. Perform a plunge cut to the max preset depth and
slowly push the saw along the full length of the
guide rail.
6. The guide rail is now trimmed to the exact cutting
edge of the saw.
Anti-Tip Feature
When bevel cutting with a guide rail, use the anti-
tip feature to prevent the tool from falling over.
After attaching the saw to a guide rail, press the
button and rotate the knob to engage the anti-tip
feature.
Dust collection
WARNING
Collected sawdust from coated
(polyurethanes, linseed oil, etc.)
workpieces can self-ignite in the dust bag or
elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce the risk of
fire, empty the dust bag frequently and never
store or leave a saw without totally emptying its
dust bag.
Always use either the dust bag or vacuum. Fail
-
ure to do so could cause dust or foreign objects
to be thrown into your face or eyes which could
result in possible serious injury.
The dust port at the back of the
saw can be connected to a
standard workshop vacuum
hose or the included dust bag.
To
install
, push and twist the
hose or dust bag onto the dust
port. Rotate the dust port as
necessary to allow clearance
between the attachment and
the workpiece.
