Miter saw
The miter saw is a machine used to shorten long pieces of wood.
Basic usage
Install the vacuum tube.
Plug the saw's power cord into the vacuum cleaner. This way the vacuum cleaner will start automatic when the saw is started.
Clamp the workpiece:
- Push the plunger down onto the wood
- Rotate the handle on the right side until it's horizontal
Put on eye and ear protection.
Bind up long hair and roll up long sleeves. Take off scarves and other things that can catch on the blade.
- Pull the saw towards you
- By pulling the trigger (1) with your finger, you can lower the saw to check where the blade will cut.
- In addition, push the button (2) on top to start the saw.
- Bring the saw slowly down and push the blade calmly towards the back.
After the cut, let the saw come to a stop. Then lift it up.
Do a quick 10 second cleanup for the next person.
Clamping small pieces
- Put a small block on your piece. A few centimeters away from where the cut will be.
- Rest a strong beam onto the small block
- Clamp on top of the angled beam
