Mitre saw Sourcing 1305AA 216 mm blade non-sliding (BT1E1305AA)

The Sourcing 1305AA mitre saw with a 216 mm blade is a compact, non-sliding benchtop tool designed for crosscuts and angled cuts in wood and similar materials. The fixed-arm design keeps the cutting head close to the base for stable operation and reduced footprint, making it suitable for small workshops and home DIY projects. Standard mitre and bevel adjustments allow angled cuts up to common mitre and tilt ranges, while the 216 mm blade balances cutting depth and portability.

Advantages

The non-sliding construction delivers straightforward setup and predictable cut lines while occupying minimal bench space. A 216 mm blade offers efficient cutting capacity for common timber sizes without excessive bulk. The stable base and adjustable angle stops support repeatable mitre and bevel cuts, and the compact design simplifies storage and transport between job locations.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting boards and timber to length
• Making mitre joints for frames, skirting and trim
• Bevel cuts for angled joinery and mouldings
• Light workshop and DIY furniture assembly tasks

Key specifications

• Blade diameter: 216 mm
• Non-sliding (fixed-arm) mitre saw design

How to use

Secure the mitre saw on a stable workbench or stand. Fit the appropriate 216 mm blade and ensure the blade guard and safety features are engaged. Mark the workpiece where cuts are required, position it firmly against the fence, select the mitre and/or bevel angle, and clamp the workpiece if necessary. Start the saw, allow the blade to reach full speed, then lower the blade in a steady motion through the material. Release the trigger and wait for the blade to stop completely before raising the arm and removing the workpiece.

Usage recommendations

Use blades rated for the material being cut and observe recommended blade tooth counts for clean finishes on wood and laminates. Wear approved eye and hearing protection and follow local electrical safety rules. For repeated precision cuts, use clamps and check angle stops periodically for accuracy.
