CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of Califor nia to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of

these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your ex posure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with approved safety equipment such as dust masks specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TRACK SAW

WARNING:

tions and the warning labels.

Do not operate the track saw until you have read and understood the following instruc-

SAW BLADE SAFETY

1. Always wear protective gloves when handling saw blades.

2. Only use blades with correct size and type for both your track saw and your workpiece.

• The rated diameter of the saw blade is 6.5" with a

20mm arbor.

• The no-load speed of the track saw is 5500 RPM. The maximum permissible speed of your saw blade should always be higher than the no-load rotational speed of the saw.

3. Never use damaged or deformed saw blades. Only use sharp blades.

4. Install the saw blade in the correct orientation indi cated in the instructions (see “Changing the Saw Blade”, page 18).

5. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or workpiece near the saw blade or the cutting path of the saw.

6. Never reach around saw blade or reach in back of the saw blade.

7. Do not use blades made from high-speed steel, abra sive blades, metal-cutting blades or masonry-cutting blades. The guards of this saw are not designed to pro tect against the failure of such blades.

8. The use of accessories or attachments not recom mended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of personal injury.

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. Operate in a well ventilated area. Keep the floor area around the track saw level and free of slippery substanc es or other tripping hazards.

2. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles to protect your eyes from sparks and saw dust. Use hearing protection to protect yourself from hearing loss.

3. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to pacemakers could cause pacemaker inter ference or pacemaker failure.

4. Wear work gloves when handling saw blades. DO NOT wear gloves while operating the saw.

5. Sawdust is harmful to your health. Use NIOSH-ap proved dust masks or other respiratory protection during operation and cleaning.

6. Always turn off and unplug the track saw before mak ing any adjustments or repair tasks. Never adjust the track saw or the workpiece while the saw is running.

7. Never use damaged or incorrect blade flanges or bolt.

The blade flanges and bolt were specially designed for

your saw, for optimum performance and safety of op eration.

8. Do not use to cut metal, logs, tree limbs, or uneven lumber. Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects prior to starting work.

9. Wet lumber, green (unseasoned) lumber, and pres sure treated lumber all have an increased potential for kickback and should only be cut with a blade specifically

designed for that lumber type. Wear a NIOSH-approved

respirator and have appropriate ventilation whenever

cutting pressure treated lumber.

PREPARING THE TRACK SAW

1. When transporting the track saw, carry it by either the handle or the base. Never carry the device by its guards or its accessories. Make sure that the blade is fully cov ered by the blade cover and not exposed.

2. Securely slide the track saw onto the track before op

erating.

3. Examine the track saw for any damaged or missing parts. Replace or repair damaged parts before operation. Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fasteners are properly tightened.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TRACK SAW

WARNING:

tions and the warning labels.

Do not operate the track saw until you have read and understood the following instruc-

SECURE YOUR WORKPIECE

1. To avoid blade binding or loss of control, always secure the workpiece to a stable platform, ensuring that body exposure is minimized. Use clamps to secure the workpiece. Never perform any operation freehand.

2. Ensure that work is correctly supported. Large panels may sag under their own weight and bind the saw blade. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, close to the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.

3. For accuracy of cut, and to avoid blade binding, al ways use a rip fence or straight edge guide.

4. Never hand-hold a workpiece that is too small to be clamped, as it can be launched away and cause inju ry. Use proper support and guides to secure the small workpiece.

DURING CUTTING OPERATIONS

1. Always stand to one side when operating the saw. Never have any part of the body in line with the path of the saw. Never hold a workpiece in your hand or across your legs while cutting.

2. Ensure hands are away from the cutting area and blade. Keep one hand on the rear handle, and the other on the front grip. If both hands are holding the tool they cannot be cut by the blade.

3. Feed work into the blade against the direction of rota tion of the blade only.

4. If you are interrupted when operating the saw, com plete the process and switch the saw off before looking up.

5. Power tools must always be held by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation, ensur ing protection if the cutting tool makes contact with its own cord or hidden wiring. Contact with a ‘live’ wire will make exposed metal parts of the power tool ‘live’ and shock the operator if the insulated gripping surfaces are not used.

6. Do not use the track saw unless all guards are in place. Do not operate with any guard disabled, dam aged, or removed. Moving guards must move freely and close instantly.

7. Turn on the track saw and let it reach full speed, then slowly slide the saw into the workpiece. This will help produce safer and cleaner cuts.

8. Always push the saw blade forwards and away from you. Do not pull the saw towards you, or move the saw backwards while cutting. Do not apply any sideways or

twisting force to the blade while cutting.

9. Never cut more than one piece at a time. Do not stack workpieces together. Do not attempt to cut material

thicker than specified on page 2 of this manual. Adjust

the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece (less than a full tooth of the blade should be visible below the workpiece).

10. If a cut does not extend to the edge of the workpiece, or if the blade binds in the cut, allow the blade to come to a complete stop and lift the saw out of the workpiece.

11. Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before moving workpiece or changing settings. Do not slow or stop a blade with a piece of wood. Let the blade come to rest naturally. Do not attempt to free a jammed blade while the machine is still running and connected to pow er.

12. Always raise the blade to be covered by the blade guard after use.

Specific rules for your track saw continue on the

next page.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TRACK SAW

WARNING:

tions and the warning labels.

Do not operate the track saw until you have read and understood the following instruc-

REDUCING KICKBACK

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator, in creasing the chances of serious personal injury. Do not rely on the safety devices built into the saw. Track saw users should take as many precautions as possible to minimize on-site accidents. Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures. These conditions can be minimized with the following steps:

1. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump back wards, however, if proper precautions are taken, kickback forces can be controlled by the operator. Do not let go of the track saw.

2. If the blade is binding, or interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the workpiece until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

3. When restarting a saw within an incomplete cut, center the saw blade in the kerf and check that the saw teeth are not engaged into the material (a binding saw blade

may ‘propel upwards’ or kickback from the workpiece as the tool is restarted).

4. A large workpiece should be supported close to the line of the cut, and at the edge of the panel, to prevent sagging. This will minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback.

5. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing ex cessive friction, blade binding, and kickback.

6. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making a cut. If blade ad justment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.

7. Use extra caution when making a ‘plunge cut’ into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects causing kickback.

8. Do not use abrasive wheels, doing so will void the warranty.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS

The tool’s electrical system is double insulated where two systems of insulation are provided. This eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.

IMPORTANT: Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service personnel using identical replacement parts. Always use original factory replace ment parts when servicing.

1. Polarized Plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. Do not modify the machine plug or the extension cord in any way.

2. Ground fault circuit interrupter protection (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit or outlet used for this power tool to reduce the risk of electric shock.

3. Service and repair. To avoid danger, electrical appliances must only be repaired by qualified service technician using original replacement parts.

GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS

When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

AMPERAGE

10A 16 gauge 16 gauge 14 gauge 12 gauge

1. EXAMINE EXTENSION CORD BEFORE USE. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.

2. DO NOT ABUSE EXTENSION CORD. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by pull ing on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.

3. USE A SEPARATE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT FOR YOUR TOOL. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire and should be protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

WARNING: Do not plug in or turn on the tool until it is fully assembled according to the instructions. Read through and become familiarized with the following procedures of handling and adjusting your track saw. Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.

DUST COLLECTION (FIG. 1)

A dust collection bag (not included) or vacuum system should be used at all times. The inner diameter of the dust port adapter is 35mm; the outer diameter is

39.5mm.

1. Locate the dust port on the track saw.

2. Insert the dust port adapter into the dust port. Posi tion the adapter so the dust hose or bag will not interfere with your work.

3. Securely attach a dust bag or vacuum to the end of the dust port adapter. If using a vacuum, make sure to turn it ON before starting your cut.

Dust Port

MODE SELECTION (FIG. 2)

The mode selector switch enables fast and easy setting of major functions by simply rotating the switch to the desired mode of operation. The functions include:

A. Blade changing (see page 18 for instructions) B. Free plunge, for general cutting C. Scribe cut, for a scribe cut 2.5mm (0.1 in) deep

B. FREE PLUNGE MODE (FIG. 3)

The cutting depth can be set between 0" - 2-3/8" (0mm

- 59mm). NOTE: Always maintain an appropriate bladedepth setting. The blade teeth should never protrude more than 1/8" below the material being cut, as exces sive blade depth increases the chances of saw kickback or contact with hidden surfaces beneath the workpiece.

1. Turn the mode selector switch to the free-plunge setting (Fig. 2). Unplug your track saw. Loosen the depth adjustment knob and slide it up or down so the indi cation arrow points to the desired depth on the depth scale.

2. If you are using the saw with the track, turn the track compensation lever clockwise to the lower position to compensate for the thickness of the track. If you are using the saw without the track, turn the track compensation lever counterclockwise to the upper position.

C. SCRIBE CUTS

1. Turn the mode selector switch to the scribe cut function; see "Mode Selection" on page 13.

2. Press the plunge lock button (Fig. 4) and plunge the saw downwards. It will stop at a 2.5mm (0.1 in) depth of cut.

NOTE: An initial scribe cut (before additional cuts) helps prevent friction on the blade, particularly when deep plunge cuts are required. It is also helpful for initial cuts on veneered or melamine laminates.

ADJUSTING THE BEVEL ANGLE (FIGS. 5 & 6)

The saw can be beveled between 0° - 45°.

1. Unplug your track saw. Loosen both bevel lock knobs (Fig. 5). Bevel the saw so that the indication arrow is pointing to the desired angle on the bevel scale.

2. Tighten both bevel lock knobs to lock the bevel angle into place.

3. Make a test cut in a piece of scrap material. Measure the angle of the cut to confirm that the bevel angle is properly set. If necessary, re-adjust the bevel angle be fore cutting the actual workpiece.

NOTE: the bevel indication arrow should be properly adjusted at the factory. If you find that it is inaccurate, adjust it using the steps below.

1. Make a test cut. Measure the bevel angle.

2. Loosen the Phillips-head screw on the bevel indica tion arrow. Adjust the arrow so that it points to the angle of the cut. Tighten the screw.

LINE-OF-CUT INDICATORS (FIG. 7)

ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

NOTE: The track, track adapters, clamps, and 3mm hex wrench are not included. These items can be purchased separately at wenproducts.com.

2. Follow step "2.1" if you are using the track, follow step "2.2" if you are not using the track.

2.1) When using the saw with the track, always align position A (the "0" mark on the base plate) with your marked cutting line.

2.2) When using the saw without the track, align posi tion A (the "0" mark on the base plate) with your marked cutting line for straight cuts. Align posi tion B (the "45" mark on the base plate) with your marked cutting line for 45° bevel cuts.

NOTE: Since blade thicknesses vary, it is necessary to make test cuts along a guide line on a piece of scrap ma terial to determine the proper alignment of the guideline within the notch. This will help to obtain an accurate cut with blades of various thicknesses.

SETTING UP THE TRACK

NOTE: You will need to remove the protective sleeves

from the ends of each track before using the track. To help your saw glide smoothly along the track, do not allow dust, shavings, or other debris to build up on the track.

1. Each track adapter assembly is made up of 6 pieces:

a spacer, a sleeve, and four hex screws. Assemble the track adapter by fitting the spacer into the sleeve, op posite the hex screws. See Fig. 8.

2. Slide the track adapter assembly into the groove on

the front face of the track. Half of the adapter should be in the groove and half should hang off the track. The hex screws should be accessible. Tighten the two hex screws that are within the track with a 3mm hex wrench (Fig. 9).

ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

piece of track (Fig. 10) and tighten the hex screws on the face side and the underside (Fig. 11).

5. Align the track along the workpiece, the right-hand

(flat) side of the track is where the actual cut will occur. Clamp down the track to the work surface so the track is secure.

6. Place the saw onto the track. Make sure the blade will

contact the workpiece as intended.

7. Use the fine-adjustment cams to line up the track's

edge and the saw’s cutting path with one another. Refer to page 17.

CUTTING THE RUBBER STRIP

The rubber strip running along the edge of the track comes in its uncut original state. This rubber strip has two main applications. Firstly, it acts as a straightedge, allowing users to visualize the exact location of the cut. Secondly, it helps prevent dust from flying up during sawing operations. Because of the precision required for these two applications, users must cut this rubber strip themselves before using the track saw on any workpiec es. This ensures every track perfectly complements a particular track saw.

1. Turn the mode selector switch to the free-plunge set

ting, see "Mode Selection" on page 13. Set the depth stop to 1/2", limiting the blade’s maximum cutting depth.

2. Clamp the track into place so that you can cut the full

length of the track in one go.

3. Position the saw onto the end of the track with the

back two-thirds of the saw hanging off. The goal should be to maximize the amount of the saw’s base that is on the track while still being able to plunge the full 1/2" downwards without yet contacting the rubber strip with the blade (Fig. 12).

4. Start the saw and then plunge downwards, making

sure to not yet contact the rubber strip. Once the saw has reached full speed and is plunged the full 1/2", progress forward along the track so that the blade makes contact with the rubber strip.

5. Cut the rubber strip along the full length of the track. Once you have made it all the way down the track, the strip

should be precision-cut to meet the specifications of your particular track saw.

ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

USING THE TRACK LOCK

The track lock is an added measure to prevent the track saw from separating from the track during operation.

1. Pull upwards on the track lock knob and rotate it

counterclockwise (so the arrow on the knob points to the 0 on the base), then set the track saw onto the track.

2. Once the saw is sitting properly on the track, pull up

wards on the track lock knob and rotate it clockwise (so the arrow on the knob points to the 1 on the base). This hooks a small plate on the base of the saw under the lip of the track, preventing the saw from separating from the track.

USING THE FINE-ADJUSTMENT CAMS (FIG. 14)

There are two fine-adjustment cams on the base of the saw to help eliminate play between the track guide rail and the track slot on the base of the saw.

1. Loosen the fine-adjustment cam knobs, then

move the lever on the cam all the way to the left or the right. Tighten the knobs.

2. Set the track saw on the track, ensuring that the

track rail enters the slot in the saw base.

3. Loosen the knobs and move the lever on each cam

to take any play out of the track saw’s movement. The saw base should be snug against the track rail. Tighten the knobs to lock the cams in place.

4. Move the saw forward along the track, ensuring

its movement is smooth. Repeat step 3, if necessary, if adjustments are needed.

NOTE: some tracks’ rails may be wide enough that the saw cannot be placed on the track without re moving the cams. If this is the case, unscrew the knobs and remove the cams.

Anti-Kickback

Knob

ANTI-KICKBACK CAM (FIG. 15)

For your safety, an anti-kickback cam is included on the base of the saw. The cam is designed to prevent backwards movement of the saw along the track, and therefore kickback that can result from this movement. If you are not making a cut and need to easily slide the saw backwards along the track, turn the cam knob so the arrow points to the 0 (disengaged) position on the base, hold it in this position, then slide the saw backwards. NOTE: the cam is spring-loaded and should return to the 1 (engaged) position automatically.

ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

DANGER! Never try to use a blade larger than the stated capacity of the saw. Do not use a blade thicker than

1.9mm. It will prevent the blade screw from properly securing the blade on the arbor. Install the suitable blade for your cutting operation. See page 2 and page 6 for specifications and saw blade safety.

CAUTION: Always wear gloves while handling blades to prevent cuts and injuries.

CHANGING THE SAW BLADE

1. Unplug your track saw. Turn the mode selector switch

to the blade changing setting (p. 13, Fig. 2).

2. Press and hold the plunge lock button (Fig. 16) and

plunge the saw downwards until the arbor screw is vis ible in the blade guard window. Release the plunge lock button; the saw should now be locked in place and un able to be plunged or raised.

3. Press and hold the spindle lock (Fig. 16), then use

the included 5mm hex wrench to loosen the arbor screw (turn it counterclockwise).

4. Remove the screw and outer flange (Fig. 17). Slide

the blade off the arbor and downwards until it is clear of the blade guard.

5. Install the new blade on the arbor. Ensure that the

blade rotation direction is correct. Install the outer flange and arbor screw. Press and hold the spindle lock button, then use the hex wrench to tighten the arbor screw.

6. Press and hold the plunge lock button to release the

saw, then raise it.

OPERATION

WARNING: Always let the blade reach full speed before guiding the saw into the workpiece. The blade coming into contact with the workpiece before reaching full speed, could cause your saw to KICKBACK towards you resulting in serious personal injury.

WARNING: If, while operating the saw, the cord hangs up on the workpiece or some other object during a cut, release the switch trigger immediately. Unplug the saw and reposition the cord to prevent it from hanging up again.

STARTING/STOPPING THE SAW (FIG. 18)

1. Plug in the tool.

2. To start the saw, press and hold the plunge lock but ton, then pull the power trigger. Once the saw reaches maximum speed, plunge the saw downwards.

3. To stop the saw, release the power trigger. Allow the blade to come to a complete stop.

NOTE: Do not remove your saw from the workpiece while the blade is still moving.

OPERATING THE SAW (FIG. 19)

1. Hold the tool firmly with both hands, using both the front grip and the rear handle. Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making a cut.

2. Place the workpiece with the “good” side down.

3. Set-up and support the workpiece so the cut is always on your right side. The larger (left) side of the saw’s base should be on the part that does not fall off when a cut is made.

4. Securely clamp the workpiece so it will not move dur ing the cut. If you are cutting with the track, use two clamps to clamp the track to the workpiece. If you are cutting without the track, place a clamp as close to the base of the saw as possible to support the workpiece. Make sure the clamp is as close to the cut as possible without getting in the way of the saw’s line of motion.

OPERATION

5. Draw a guideline along the desired path of the cut

before starting your saw or the cut. Set up the track to meet the needs of your particular guide line (see “Set ting Up the Track” on page 15).

6. Keep the cord away from the cutting area. Position the

cord to prevent it from hanging up on the workpiece and stop you from standing or tripping on the cord during operation. Start the saw and make your cut.

CAUTION: To make sawing easier and safer, be sure to move the tool forward gently in a straight line. Never force or twist the saw during operation. Forcing or twist ing the tool will result in overheating the motor and will increase the chances of dangerous kickback, possibly causing severe personal injury. Do not pull the saw to wards you, or move the saw backwards, while cutting.

CROSS-CUTTING AND RIP CUTTING

Cutting directly across the grain of a piece of wood is called crosscutting. Cutting wood lengthwise, or with the grain, is referred to as rip cutting (or simply “ripping”). Both types of cuts are performed in the same manner with the exception of the methods used to support and secure the workpiece for cutting. After you have secured the workpiece in position, positioned the cord so it won’t be cut or hung up, performed the saw set-up adjust ments, made the necessary measurements, drawn a straight guide line, and put on your personal protection, you can begin the cutting operation.

1. Hold the tool firmly with both hands, using both the

front grip and the rear handle. Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making a cut.

2. Set the front portion of the saw’s base on the work

piece to be cut without the blade making any contact. Align the line-of-cut indicator notch on the right side of the base with your guideline. Turn the saw on and wait until it reaches full speed.

3. Ease the tool forward over the workpiece surface,

keeping it flat and advancing smoothly while following your guideline until sawing is completed.

4. Once the cut is complete, release the power trigger.

Wait for the blade to completely stop. Raise the saw. Now you can safely remove the saw from the workpiece and set it out of the way.

5. To achieve clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight while smoothly advancing forward. Do not force the saw

forward too quickly in order to try and hurry up the pro cess. Let the tool work at its own pace.

6. If the cut fails to properly follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and lead to dan gerous kickback and possible serious injury. Do not pull the saw towards you, or move the saw backwards, while cutting. Instead, release the switch trigger, wait for the blade to stop, and then remove the tool. Realign saw on

a new cut guide line and start the cut again.

7. Position yourself in a way that allows you to avoid the

wooden chips and dust being ejected from the saw.

BEVEL CUTTING

For instructions on how to bevel the saw blade, see “Adjusting the Bevel Angle” on page 14.

Bevel cuts are made using the same technique as cross cuts and ripping described in the previous section. The difference is that the blade is set at a tilted angle be tween 0° - 45°. A bevel cut made at an angle to the edge of a board is called a compound miter.

There are tools better suited for bevel and compound cuts than the track saw. Although the inner line-of-cut indicator notch aids the operator in following the cut’s guideline, the tilted motor housing sometimes obstructs the operator’s ability to see the blade, making accurate cuts difficult. Before taking on a project with numerous compound or bevel cuts, it is suggested that inexperi enced saw users spend time making practice cuts in

scrap material to become familiar with and overcome difficulties associated with compound/bevel cutting.

NOTE: Keep in mind that bevel cutting may cause mis alignment or alter the rubber strip along the edge of your track.

WARNING: Always let the blade reach full speed before guiding the saw into the workpiece. The blade coming into contact with the workpiece before reach ing full speed, could cause your saw to KICKBACK towards you resulting in serious personal injury.

OPERATION

PLUNGE CUTS

A plunge cut is a cut that must be made inside the area of the workpiece, rather than starting from an outside edge and working inward.

1. Adjust the bevel setting to zero; see "Adjusting the Bevel Angle" on page 14.

2. Turn the mode selector switch to the free-plunge set ting, see "Mode Selection" on page 13.

3. Set the blade to the correct blade depth setting and position it where you would like your cut to occur. You will find two notches along the blade cover. The notches indicate the maximum points that the saw’s blade will reach (Fig. 20).

4. Press the plunge lock button (Fig. 21) to allow the saw to plunge downwards, while not allowing the blade to actually contact the workpiece.

5. Power the saw on by pulling the trigger switch (Fig.

21). Allow it to reach full speed.

6. Once the blade has reached its maximum speed, lower the blade down into the workpiece until the set cutting depth has been reached. Once the saw cannot be lowered anymore, move the saw along the desired cut line in an even and steady motion.

FLUSH CUTTING (FIG. 22)

Your track saw can perform cuts close to walls or other obstructions (for example, when removing hardwood flooring). NOTE: the minimum distance between the cut line and wall is 16mm (5/8").

1. Turn the mode selector switch to the scribe-cut or free-plunge setting,

2. Adjust the bevel angle to 0 degrees, see “Adjust ing the Bevel Angle” on page 14.

3. If using the free-plunge setting, set the desired plunge depth and ensure that the track compensation mechanism is properly adjusted, see “B. Free Plunge Mode" on page 13. If using the scribe-cut setting, the cutting depth is pre-set at 2.5mm (0.1").

4. Plunge the saw downwards and complete the cut, see "Operating the Saw" on page 19. After completing the cut, release the power trigger (Fig. 21) and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the saw from the workpiece.

MAINTENANCE

NOTE: Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommend using this tool for extended work on these types of materials. However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool using compressed air after operation.

CLEANING & STORAGE

1. Keep the ventilation openings free from dust and debris to prevent the motor from overheating.

2. Wipe the tool surfaces clean with a clean cloth. Make sure water does not get into the tool.

CAUTION: Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents. Do not use any solvents or cleaning products that could damage the plastic parts. Some of these include but are not limited to: gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, and household deter gents that contain ammonia.

3. Store the tool in a clean and dry place away from the reach of children. Store in temperatures between 41° to 86°F.

4. Cover the track saw in order to protect it from dust and moisture. It is preferable to store it in its original packaging with the instruction manual and all accesso ries.

LUBRICATION

The bearings of your track saw are permanently sealed and require no extra lubrication. The gearbox is also suf ficiently lubricated from the factory and requires no additional lubrication.

PRODUCT DISPOSAL

Used power tools should not be disposed of together with household waste. This product contains electronic components that should be recycled. Please take this product to your local recycling facility for responsible disposal and to minimize its environmental impact.

CARBON BRUSH REPLACEMENT

The wear on the carbon brushes depends on how frequently and how heavily the tool is used. To maintain maximum efficiency of the motor, we recommend in specting the two carbon brushes every 60 hours of operation or when the tool stops working. Your track saw comes with a carbon brush replacement set.

NOTE: Replacement carbon brushes (Part No. CT1065-

031) can be ordered at wenproducts.com. Only genu ine WEN replacement brushes designed specifically for your tool should be used. Carbon brushes are not cov ered under the two-year warranty.

1. Unplug the saw. To access the carbon brushes, re move the carbon brush cover (Fig. 23) with a flat-head screwdriver (not included).

2. Carefully remove the old carbon brushes using pliers. Keep track of which orientation the old carbon brushes were in to prevent needless wear if they will be rein stalled.

3. Measure the length of the brushes (Fig. 23). Install the new set of carbon brushes if either carbon brush length is worn down to 3/16" or less. Reinstall the old carbon brushes (in their original orientation) if your brushes are not worn down to 3/16" or less. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time.

4. Replace the carbon brush cover.

NOTE: New carbon brushes tend to spark for a few min utes during the first use as they wear down.
