Troubleshooting
Saw blade does not spin.
Check that the saw is properly plugged into a live power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position. Verify that the motor's overload protection has not tripped; if it has, allow it to cool before resetting.
Inaccurate or angled cuts.
Ensure the rip fence is parallel to the blade and locked securely. Check that the mitre gauge is set to the correct angle and slides smoothly in its slot. Verify the blade is not wobbling or damaged.
Excessive vibration during operation.
Confirm the blade is securely tightened and properly seated on the arbor. Ensure the table and all extensions are firmly attached. Check for any foreign objects or debris on the blade or motor housing.
Dust collection not effective.
Verify that the dust collection hose is securely connected to the extraction port. Check the dust collection system itself for blockages or a full bag/canister. Ensure the blade guard is properly seated to direct dust towards the port.
Material binding on the blade.
Ensure the blade is sharp and cutting freely. Avoid forcing the material through the cut; let the blade do the work. Use a push stick for smaller pieces. Check that the blade is not tilted relative to the table surface for non-bevel cuts.
