Can this saw be used for angled cuts?

How does the dust extraction system work?
The system collects sawdust through a port, ideally connected to a vacuum or dust collector, keeping the work area cleaner and improving visibility.
Is this saw suitable for professional use?
This model is primarily designed for DIY and hobbyist use. For continuous or heavy-duty professional applications, a more robust model might be recommended.
What maintenance is required?
Regular cleaning of the table, blade, and dust port is essential. Keep the blade sharp and ensure all moving parts operate smoothly.
What does 'refurbished' mean for this product?
A refurbished product has been previously used, inspected, repaired if necessary, and restored to full working order. It may have minor cosmetic imperfections.
What kind of blades are compatible with this saw?
The saw is compatible with standard woodworking blades, provided they match the arbor size and are rated for the motor's RPM.
Troubleshooting
Saw does not power on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the circuit breaker has tripped. Verify that the on/off switch is in the correct position.
Blade wobbles or vibrates excessively
Check that the blade is correctly and securely mounted to the arbor. Ensure the blade is not damaged or warped. Tighten the blade mounting nut securely.
Poor cut quality or burning wood
Confirm the blade is sharp and appropriate for the material being cut. Ensure the blade is installed with the correct tooth orientation. Reduce the feed rate when cutting to prevent burning.
Dust extraction is ineffective
Check that the dust collection hose is securely connected to the saw and the vacuum. Ensure the vacuum has sufficient suction power. Clear any blockages in the dust port or hose.
Fence does not move smoothly or lock accurately
Clean the fence T-slots and guide rails to remove debris. Ensure the locking mechanism is functioning correctly. Make minor adjustments to align the fence precisely parallel to the blade.
