FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Adjusting depth of cut
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the
clamping screws securely.
Loosen the clamping screw on the depth guide and move the
base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the
base by tightening the clamping screw.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than
one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using proper cut
depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous KICKBACKS
which can cause personal injury.
Bevel cutting
Loosen two clamping screws on the bevel plates on the front
and back of the base. Set for the desired angle (0° - 45°) by
tilting accordingly, then tighten the clamping screws securely.
Sighting
For straight cuts, align the A position on the front of the base
with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the B position
with it.
