The built-in dust port helps keep your workspace cleaner.

Question 2

What are the key specifications I should know?

Accepted Answer

blade diameter: 185 mm; maximum cut depth: 67 mm; no-load speed: 3400–4500 RPM with electronic feedback for stable performance; included blade: 24T carbide-tipped; features: tool-free blade change, spindle lock, adjustable guide plate for miters, dust extraction port, robust base plate with anti-slip design.

Question 3

How do I change the blade on this saw?

Accepted Answer

Unplug the saw, use the spindle lock to immobilize the arbor, rotate the blade to align and remove the old one, then install a new 185 mm blade and securely tighten. The spindle lock and tool-free blade change system are designed for quick, easy blade swaps.

Question 4

Can I bevel cut with this saw, or is it just straight cuts?

Accepted Answer

The product description highlights an adjustable guide plate for mitre cuts, enabling angled straight cuts. Bevel tilt (sloping cuts) is not specified, so it’s best used for straight cuts and mitre-style cuts as described.

Question 5

How do I set up and make a cut safely with this saw?

Accepted Answer

Set the blade depth to slightly above your workpiece, align the cut line with the guide plate, connect a dust extractor to the integrated port, secure the workpiece, wear PPE, and push the saw steadily through the cut after ensuring the blade guard and base plate are properly engaged.

Question 6

What safety and compliance considerations should I follow?

Accepted Answer

Always wear appropriate PPE (eye, ear, and hand protection), keep hands away from the blade, ensure the blade guard moves freely, unplug before blade changes, and use the dust extraction system to minimize airborne dust for a cleaner, safer workspace.
