Troubleshooting

Cuts are not straight.

Check that the guide rail is straight and properly aligned. Ensure the saw is perpendicular to the rail and the workpiece is securely clamped. Inspect the saw blade and replace if necessary.

The saw is slipping.

Ensure the rubber seats on the guide rail are clean and gripping the material effectively. Check the material's surface for any contaminants that might cause slippage. Make sure the quick release clamps are securely holding the workpiece.

Clamps are not holding the workpiece securely.

Make sure that the clamping pads are making full contact with the workpiece and the rail. Tighten the quick release clamps firmly. Check the condition of the clamps and replace them if necessary.
