Thanks for all your replies, yes, I know these saws are supposed to be crap, but if it finishes this project it can have a rest, as I'm not expecting to use it very much, that's why I didn't buy a good one (besides being tight -fisted).
I've downloaded a manual from Axminster which seems to cover all I need, I think I had already sussed the machine (It's not rocket science),
but wanted to check, just in case.
Once again a good response from this forum,
Thanks again y'awwwll,
Pip.
