Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
1. Operazzjoni Ġenerali
- Kun żgur li l-batterija hija ċċarġjata kompletament u installata sew.
- Select the appropriate blade for the material you intend to cut.
- Żomm is-serrieq sew biż-żewġ idejn.
- Press the variable speed trigger to start the saw. The speed of the blade is controlled by the amount of pressure applied to the trigger.
- The integrated LED light will illuminate the work area when the trigger is pressed and will remain on for 10 seconds after release.
2. Adjustable Pivoting Shoe
The pivoting shoe provides stability and helps reduce vibration during cutting. It maintains constant contact with the workpiece. Adjust the shoe by loosening its locking mechanism (if applicable) and positioning it against the material before starting the cut. This helps to control the depth of cut and improve accuracy.
3. Tekniki tat-tqattigħ
Dejjem kun żgur li l-biċċa tax-xogħol tkun imqabbda sewampimwaħħla jew miżmuma biex tipprevjeni l-moviment waqt it-tqattigħ.
- Injam: Use a coarse-tooth wood blade. Apply steady, moderate pressure.
- Metall: Use a fine-tooth metal cutting blade. Apply cutting oil to prolong blade life and improve cut quality. Use slower speeds for harder metals.
- PVC/Plastik: Use a general-purpose blade. Avoid excessive speed to prevent melting the material.
