Configuración
Proper setup is crucial for safe and accurate operation.
- Desembalaxe: Retire con coidado todos os compoñentes da embalaxe. Inspeccione se houbo danos durante o envío.
- Montaxe: For stability, it is highly recommended to securely mount the miter saw to a workbench or a dedicated miter saw stand using appropriate bolts through the base holes.
- Instalar a lámina: Ensure the saw is unplugged. Press the shaft lock button and use the provided wrench to loosen the arbor nut. Install the 10-inch carbide-tipped blade, ensuring the teeth are oriented correctly for cutting. Tighten the arbor nut securely.
- Attach Dust Bag: Connect the dust bag to the dust port at the rear of the saw.
- Install Extension Bars: Slide the table side extension bars into their respective slots on either side of the miter table and tighten their locking knobs.
- Install Hold Down Clamp: Insert the hold-down clamp into the designated hole on the miter table and adjust its height as needed for your workpiece.
- Laser Alignment System: The laser system may require batteries (not included) and calibration. Refer to the specific instructions for the laser module for battery installation and alignment procedures.
Instrucións de funcionamento
Understand the different cutting operations your miter saw can perform.
Operación Xeral
- Conexión de alimentación: Connect the saw to a grounded 120V~60Hz power outlet.
- Colocación da peza de traballo: Place the workpiece firmly against the fence and on the miter table. Use the hold-down clamp para aseguralo.
- Comezando a serra: Depress the trigger switch to start the motor. Allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning the cut.
- Facendo o corte: Slowly lower the saw head through the workpiece. For sliding cuts, pull the saw head forward, lower the blade, and push it back through the material.
- Rematando o corte: Unha vez rematado o corte, solte o gatillo e deixe que a folla pare completamente antes de levantar o cabezal da serra.
Miter Cuts (Angle Cuts)
To make miter cuts, loosen the miter table lock handle, rotate the table to the desired angle (up to 45 degrees left or right), and then re-tighten the lock handle. The laser alignment system can assist in precise angle setting.
Bevel Cuts (Angled Vertical Cuts)
To make bevel cuts, loosen the bevel lock knob (typically located at the rear of the saw). Tilt the saw head to the desired bevel angle (up to 45 degrees left). Re-tighten the bevel lock knob before cutting.
Compound Cuts (Miter and Bevel)
For compound cuts, set both the miter angle and the bevel angle simultaneously. This allows for complex angled cuts, such as those needed for crown molding.
Sliding Feature
The dual slide rails allow for cutting wider materials than a standard miter saw. For wider workpieces, pull the saw head towards you, lower the blade into the material, and then push the saw head smoothly away from you through the cut.
Mantemento
Un mantemento regular garante a lonxevidade e o funcionamento seguro da súa serra de corte.
- Cambios na lámina: Always unplug the saw. Use the push-button shaft lock and the provided wrench to safely remove and install blades. Ensure the new blade is clean, sharp, and suitable for the material.
- Limpeza: After each use, unplug the saw and use a brush or vacuum to remove sawdust and debris from the motor vents, blade guard, and table. Do not use solvents that could damage plastic parts.
- Lubricación: Periodically apply a light coat of silicone spray or dry lubricant to the sliding rails to ensure smooth operation.
- Inspeccionar o cable de alimentación: Regularly check the power cord for any signs of damage or fraying. Replace if necessary.
- Aliñamento láser: Check and recalibrate the laser alignment system periodically to maintain cutting accuracy.
Resolución de problemas
Consulta esta sección para ver os problemas comúns e as súas solucións.
| Problema | Causa posible | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| A serra non comeza. | Sen electricidade, interruptor avariado, disyuntor saltado. | Comprobe a conexión de alimentación, probe a toma de corrente, reinicie o disxuntor e póñase en contacto co servizo técnico se o interruptor está avariado. |
| Blade binds or smokes. | Dull blade, incorrect blade for material, forcing the cut, workpiece not secured. | Replace or sharpen blade, use appropriate blade, reduce feed rate, secure workpiece firmly. |
| Cuts are not accurate. | Miter/bevel scale misaligned, laser needs calibration, blade wobble. | Calibrate scales, adjust laser, check blade for damage or proper installation. |
| Sliding action is stiff. | Dust/debris on rails, lack of lubrication. | Clean rails thoroughly, apply silicone spray or dry lubricant. |
