ADJUSTING THE SAW PRIOR TO USE

1. Adjusting the cutting depth (Fig. 6, Fig. 7)
To adjust cutting depth, loosen the clamp lever
and, while holding the base with one hand,
move the main unit up and down to obtain the
prescribed cutting depth. Inch scale on the saw
cover and metric scale on the link provide a
general guide to cutting depth. After adjusting
to the prescribed cutting depth, tighten the
clamp lever securely.
2. Adjusting the angle of inclination
As shown in Fig. 8 by loosening the wing-bolt
on the inclined gauge, the saw blade may be
inclined to a maximum angle of 45° in relation
to the base. Always insure that the wing-bolt is
thoroughly tightened after making the desired
adjustment.
3. Regularing the guide (Rip fence)
.......................................... Optional Accessory
The cutting position can be regulated by moving
the guide to the left or right after loosening its
wing-bolt. The guide may be mounted on either
the right or left side of the tool. (See Fig. 9)

CUTTING PROCEDURES

CAUTION:
G Recheck that the saw blade is securely clamped.
G Confirm that the clamp lever for adjusting the
cutting depth, the wing-bolt for adjusting the
angle of inclination.
G Grip the saw as shown in Fig. 2 and be sure the
cord is free to move through the entire cut
without jamming or getting in the path of the
saw blade.
1. Place the saw body (base) on the lumber, and as
in Fig. 10 align the intended line of cut with the
saw blade, using the notch at the front of the
base. This relationship of base to lumber should
remain unchanged regardless of the inclination
of the base.
2. The switch should be turned to the ON position
before the saw blade comes into contact with
the lumber. The switch is turned ON when the
trigger is pulled by one's finger, and is turned
OFF when the trigger is released.
