When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Forcing causes rough cuts, could shorten the life of your saw and could cause "kickback." REMEMBER; When sawing through work, the lower blade guard does not cover the blade, exposing It on the underside of work. Keep your hands and fingers away from cutting area. Any part of your body coming in contact with the moving blade will result in serious injury. After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not remove your saw from workplece while the blade is moving. _ CAUTION" When lifting your saw from the workpiece, the blade is exposed on the underside of your saw until the lower blade guard closes. Make sure lower guard is closed before setting your saw down on work surface. TO CROSS CUT OR RIP CUT When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of cut with the outer blade guide notch on the saw base as shown in Figure 15.

Note: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline is the amount you should offset the guideline. 12 TO BEVEL CUT The angle of cut of your saw may be adjusted to any desired setting between zero and 51.5 °. Note: When making cuts at 51.5 ° blade should be set at full depth of cut, with edge guide screw removed. When making 45° bevel cuts, there is a notch in the saw base to help you line up the blade with the line of cut. See Figure 16. When making a bevel cut hold your saw firmly with both hands as shown in Figure 17. Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece. Squeeze the switch trigger to start your saw. Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide your saw into the workpiece.

Since blade thicknesses vary and different angles require different settings, always make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to determine how much you should offset the guideline on the board to be cut. LOWER BLADEGUARD ig. 17 _k WARNING: The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before it reaches full speed could cause saw to "kickback" toward you resulting in serious injury. After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a complete stop. After the blade has stopped, lift your saw from the workpiece. TO ADJUST BEVEL SE'B'ING • Unplug your saw. ,_ WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. • Loosen wing nut. See Figure 16. • Raise motor housing end of saw until you reach desired angle setting on bevel scale. See Figure 16. • Tighten wing nut securely. ,_ WARNING: Attempting bevel cut without wing nut securely tightened can result in serious injury. 13 POSITIVE 0° BEVEL STOP See Figure 18. BEVEL ADJUSTMENT WING NUT ADJUSTMENT SCREW HEXNUT POSITWEO°BEVELSTOP CARPENTER'SSQUARE Fig. 18 Your saw has a positive 0° bevel stop, that has been factory adjusted to assure 0° angle of your saw blade when making 90° cuts. However, misalignment can occur during shipping. TO CHECK • Unplug your saw. _1= WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. • Place your saw in an upside down position on workbench. See Figure 18. • Using a carpenter's square, check squareness of saw blade to the base of your saw. TO ADJUST • Unplug your saw. ,_ WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. • Loosen wing nut. • Loosen hex nut securing adjustment screw. • Turn screw and adjust base until square with saw blade. • Tighten hex nut and wing nut securely. ,_ WARNING: Attempting to make cuts without wing nut securely tightened can result in serious injury. LENGTH OF CUT SCALE See Figure 19. [ LENGTHOF CUTSCALE Fig. 19 A length of cut scale has been provided on the base of your saw. It is parallel with the saw blade and can be used to measure the distance into material the blade has cut. Note: Six inches is the maximum length of cut that can be measured. Also, it is accurate only when the depth of cut is set at full maximum depth. 14 TO POCKET CUT See Figure 20. ,_1= WARNING: Always adjust bevel setting to zero before making a pocket cut. Attempting a pocket cut at any other setting can result in loss of control of your saw possibly causing serious injury. Adjust the bevel setting to zero, set blade to correct blade depth setting, and swing the lower blade guard up using the lower blade guard handle. Always raise the lower blade ...
