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 lever
securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base up
or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base by
tightening the lever.
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 the clamping screw on the bevel scale plate on the
front of the base. Set for the desired angle (0° - 45°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the clamping screw 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.
