2. Інструкцыі па тэхніцы бяспекі
- Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, when operating the tool.
- Ensure the workpiece (skirting board) is securely clamped or held in place before cutting to prevent movement and ensure accuracy.
- Use a sharp hand saw appropriate for the material being cut. Dull blades can cause kickback or imprecise cuts.
- Keep hands and fingers clear of the saw blade's path at all times.
- Не перашчыруйце з пілай; дайце дыску зрабіць працу.
- Трымайце рабочую зону ў чысціні і добра асветленым.
- Захоўвайце інструмент у сухім, бяспечным месцы, недаступным для дзяцей.

5. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі
5.1 Вымярэнне вуглоў
The tool can measure both internal and external angles directly from the wall.
- пазіцыянаванне: Place the miter box directly against the corner where the skirting board will be installed.
- Адрэгуляваць рычагі: Adjust the two flexible arms to align perfectly with the walls of the corner. The metal arms are designed to reach into narrow areas.
- Кут блакіроўкі: Once the arms are aligned, tighten the two locking screws to secure the measured angle. The tool automatically bisects the angle, setting the correct cutting angle for your miter joint.

5.2 Выкананне скошаных разрэзаў
After measuring the angle, proceed with cutting:
- Position Skirting Board: Place the skirting board (up to 120 mm high and 40 mm thick) into the miter box. Ensure it is flush against the back and bottom surfaces.
- Secure Skirting Board: Adjust the sliding stops to firmly hold the skirting board in place. For longer boards, use the removable trestles for additional stability.
- Align Saw: Position your hand saw between the integrated guide pins. The plastic protections will help guide the saw and prevent it from binding or damaging the blade.
- выразаць: Carefully saw through the skirting board, maintaining a steady and even stroke. The guide pins will ensure a precise miter cut.
- Паўтарыць: For the opposing piece of skirting board, the tool can be used in the opposite direction to achieve the complementary angle.

7. Выпраўленне непаладак
| праблема | Магчымая прычына | Рашэнне |
|---|---|---|
| Inaccurate angle measurement | Arms not flush against the wall; locking screws not tightened. | Ensure arms are pressed firmly against the wall. Tighten locking screws securely after measurement. |
| Saw binds or gets stuck | Dull saw blade; excessive force; sawdust buildup in guides. | Use a sharp saw. Apply steady, moderate pressure. Clean guide pins and channels regularly. |
| Skirting board moves during cutting | Sliding stops not tight enough; board not supported. | Ensure sliding stops are firmly secured. Use trestles for long boards. |
| Грубыя або расколтыя парэзы | Dull saw blade; incorrect saw type for material; too much pressure. | Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw. Reduce cutting pressure. |
