Troubleshooting
The saw won't turn on.
Check the power connection and ensure the switch is in the 'on' position. If using an extension cord, make sure it's rated for the saw's power requirements.
Cuts are not accurate.
Check the blade alignment and ensure the material is securely clamped. Verify that the fence and base are at a perfect 90-degree angle. Recalibrate the mitre stops if necessary.
Poor dust extraction.
Check the dust bag or dust port for blockages and ensure it is properly connected. Use an external vacuum for better dust collection.
The blade is binding during a cut.
Make sure the material is not pinching the blade. Use a slower, more controlled feed rate, and check the blade's condition.
