Bench Mounting

•

The saw base has holes to facilitate bench mounting.

•

Attach the saw to a level, horizontal bench or work table using bolts (not supplied) though the fixing holes in

the saw base.

NOTE: If desired, you can mount the saw to a piece of 13mm or thicker plywood which can then be clamped to

your work support or moved to other job sites and re-clamped.

CAUTION! Make sure that the mounting surface is not warped as an uneven surface can cause binding

and inaccurate sawing.

The dust bag (15) fits in the dust extractor port (27). For efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no

more than half full. This allows better air flow through the bag.

Using the Laser Lines

Switch ON the laser lights with the ON/OFF switch (2).

NOTE: The laser comes in a pre-mounted position. It is possible the laser can become misaligned in

transit. If the laser is not aligned with the blade, please re-align it before use.

DBR-255 10” Mitre Saw

Trench Depth Adjustment

In its normal position, the trenching stop (31) permits the saw blade to cut right through a workpiece. When the

saw arm is lifted, the trenching stop can be adjusted so that the trenching depth adjustment screw (30) contacts

the stop as the saw arm is lowered. This restricts the cut to a “trench” in the workpiece. The depth of the trench

can be adjusted with the trenching depth adjustment screw (30) and locked in position with the trenching depth

lock nut (32).

Side Support Bars

The side support bars (36) can be used to support long pieces of timber. There are two location holes (37) for a

support bar on either side of the table. Ensure that the side bars are fully inserted before using them to support

the workpiece.

Bevel Angle Adjustment

Pull and hold the release pin at the back of the unit; while holding the pin you can tilt the cutting head to your

desired angle

Please note that you will need to mount the saw to the table before doing this. Adjusting the angle requires some

force, it is this way by design.

Mitre Cutting Angle Adjustment

Rotate the handle counterclockwise then slide the handle left or right until you reach the desired angle on the

scale.

Operation

WARNING!  Do not stare directly at the laser beam. Never aim the beam at any person or an object

other than the workpiece.  Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel and ensure that it is not

directed towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.  Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a

sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. Wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright

shiny reflective surfaces are not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam

back at the operator.  Always remember to switch off the laser on/off switch (2) after finishing a job.

Only turn the laser beam on when the workpiece is on the mitre saw table.  Mark the line of the cut on

the workpiece.  Adjust the angle of mitre and bevel of the cut as required.  Adequate support such as

table extensions and saw horses must be used for a workpiece that is wider or longer than the table top,

failure to do so may lead to injury.

DBR-255 10” Mitre Saw

Cutting Operation

1. Connect the saw to power

2. Ensure the workpiece is secured correctly so it is safe to begin cutting

3. Lower the cutting head

4. Push the small safety latch from right to left with your middle finger, then grip the trigger mechanism with all

4 fingers and clench a fist. The blade will now begin spinning. To stop the blade from spinning simply release

the trigger and raise the cutting head.

Cross-Cutting (Without Slide Action)

When cutting a narrow piece of wood, it is not necessary to use the slide mechanism. In these cases, ensure

that the slide lock (29) is screwed down to prevent the saw arm from sliding.

1. A crosscut is made by cutting across the grain of the workpiece. A 90º crosscut is made with the mitre table

set at 0º. Mitre crosscuts are made with the table set at some angle other than zero.

2. Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw arm (5) to its full height.

3. Loosen the mitre lock (25).

4. Rotate the mitre table (21) until the pointer aligns with the desired angle.

5. Retighten the mitre lock (25).

WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table

moving during the cut and cause serious personal injury.

6. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge securely against the fence (18). If the board is warped,

place the convex side against the fence (18). If the concave side is placed against the fence, the board could

break and jam the blade.

7. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite end of the timber with the side support bars (36), a

roller stand or a work surface that is level with the saw table.

8. Use the clamp assembly (10) to secure the workpiece wherever possible.

9. It is possible to remove the clamp assembly (10) by loosening the clamp assembly lock (11) and moving it to

the other side of the table. Make sure the clamp assembly lock is tight before using the clamp.

10. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to check that there are no problems.

11. Hold the operating handle (7) firmly and squeeze the switch trigger (24). Allow the blade to reach maximum

speed.

12. Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.

13. Release the switch trigger (24) and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the

workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.

Cross-Cutting (with Slide Action)

1. When cutting wide workpieces, first unscrew the slide lock (29).

2. Pull on the release knob (6), raise the saw arm (5) to its highest position and slide it towards you.

3. Hold the handle firmly and squeeze the switch trigger (24). Allow the blade to reach maximum speed.

4. Slowly lower the blade into the workpiece and slide it away from you at the same time until the workpiece is

cut.

5. Release the switch trigger (24) and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the

workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing the workpiece.

Bevel Cut

1. A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain of the workpiece with the blade angled to the fence and mitre

table. The mitre table is set at the zero-degree position and the blade set at an angle between 0º and 45º.

2. Use the slide action when cutting wide workpieces.

3. Loosen the bevel lock (16) and move the saw arm (5) to the left to the desired bevel angle (between 0º and

45º). Tighten the bevel lock (16).

Compound Mitre Cut

•

A compound mitre cut involves using a mitre angle and a bevel angle at the same time.

•

It is used in making picture frames, to cut mouldings, making boxes with sloping sides and for roof framing.

Always make a test cut on a piece of scrap wood before cutting into the good material.

•

Use the slide action when cutting wide workpieces.

Maintenance and Repair

DANGER!  Never try to use a blade larger than the stated capacity of the saw. It might come into

contact with the blade guards.  Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the outer blade washer to

engage with the flats on the spindle. It will prevent the blade screw from properly securing the blade on

the spindle.  Do not use the saw to cut metal or masonry.  Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings

that may be required suit the spindle and the blade fitted.  Make sure that the electrical plug is removed

from the power point.

Changing A Blade

1. Push down on the operating handle (7) and pull the release knob (6) to disengage the saw arm (5). The

release knob (6) can be turned so that it is held in the retracted position.

Raise the saw arm (5) to its highest position.

2. Remove the hex screw that secures the blade bolt cover (14).

3. Pull the rotating blade guard (12) down then swing it up together with the blade bolt cover (14).

4. When the rotating blade guard (12) is positioned over the upper fixed blade guard (9) it is possible to access

the blade bolt.

5. Hold the rotating guard (12) up and press the spindle lock button (26). Rotate the blade until the spindle

locks.

6. Use wrench (19) to remove the blade bolt. (Loosen in a clockwise direction as the blade screw has a left-

hand thread).

7. Remove the outer blade washer and the blade.

Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner blade washer and the outer blade washer where they contact the blade.

Fit the new blade onto the spindle taking care that the inner blade washer sits behind the blade.

CAUTION. To ensure correct blade rotation, always install the blade with the blade teeth and the

arrow printed on the side of the blade pointing down. The direction of blade rotation is also stamped

with an arrow on the upper blade guard.

8. Replace the outer blade washer.

Depress the spindle lock button (26) and replace the blade bolt.

9. Use the blade wrench (19) to tighten the blade screw securely (anticlockwise).

Hold the rotating lower blade guard (12) and blade bolt cover (14) in position and tighten the fixing screw.

Check that the blade guard operates correctly and covers the blade as the saw arm is lowered.

Connect the saw to the power supply and run the blade to make certain that it is operating correctly.
