OPERATION<br />

GB<br />

1. Rest the front of the base plate on the<br />

workpiece with your pencil mark aligned<br />

with the correct sighting notch. Ensure<br />

the bla<strong>de</strong> is not touching the workpiece.<br />

2. If using the laser turn on the laser using<br />

the laser sight switch (2) and align the<br />

laser line with the pencil line.<br />

3. Hold the saw firmly with both hands,<br />

press down the lock-off button (4) and<br />

press the trigger switch (3). When the<br />

saw motor reaches full speed, gui<strong>de</strong> the<br />

saw smoothly along the cut line.<br />

4. Maintain a consistent feed rate - too<br />

fast may put excessive strain on the<br />

motor, while too slow may burnish your<br />

workpiece. Avoid any sud<strong>de</strong>n movements<br />

of the saw.<br />

5. When cutting veneered board or wood<br />

less than 20mm thick, set the bla<strong>de</strong> to<br />

protru<strong>de</strong> 5-10mm through the work. This<br />

will reduce splintering. When cutting<br />

thicker wood, set the bla<strong>de</strong> to maximum<br />

<strong>de</strong>pth to reduce kickback.<br />

6. Wherever possible,<br />

avoid free-hand<br />

cutting. It is much<br />

safer and more<br />

accurate to cut with<br />

the saw gui<strong>de</strong>d by a<br />

clamped on batten,<br />

or by fitting the saw<br />

to a <strong>Triton</strong> Workcentre or Compact Saw<br />

Table. If cutting free-hand, always mark<br />

a straight cutting line and keep the saw<br />

from wan<strong>de</strong>ring away from it.<br />

7. Make sure the workpiece cannot move<br />

during the cut, using clamps wherever<br />

possible. Never perform any cuts on a<br />

workpiece held in the hand.<br />

8. Large panels and long<br />

pieces must be well<br />

supported close to<br />

both si<strong>de</strong>s of the cut<br />

to avoid pinching and<br />

kickback. Ensure the<br />

saw is positioned<br />

with the wi<strong>de</strong>r part of the baseplate<br />

resting on the larger piece, or on the<br />

piece with the best support.<br />

9. Prevent kickback by ensuring that you<br />

move the saw in a straight line. Ensure<br />

that your bla<strong>de</strong> is in good condition and<br />

that the cut does not close in on the<br />

bla<strong>de</strong>. (Use a small wedge or 3mm spacer<br />

in the cut to prevent it closing if you’re<br />

cutting difficult material). Release the<br />

trigger if the saw gives any sign of stalling<br />

but do not remove the saw until the<br />

bla<strong>de</strong> stops spinning.<br />

10. Avoid cutting any nails, screws etc.<br />

by inspecting your workpieces and<br />

removing any fasteners prior to cutting.<br />

11. If any unusual noise or odour occurs<br />

during operation stop the saw<br />

immediately and contact an authorised<br />

<strong>Triton</strong> Saw Repair Centre.<br />

12. Do not operate the saw upsi<strong>de</strong> down<br />

unless securely mounted and guar<strong>de</strong>d<br />

in a reputable brand saw bench<br />

(eg. a <strong>Triton</strong> Workcentre or<br />

<strong>Triton</strong> Compact Saw Table).<br />
