nOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on the battery
pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is subject to variation based
on product components, temperature and end-user application.
Unpacking (Fig. A1, G)

the rear position.
4. Press down lightly on the operating handle
down pin 11 .
5. Gently release the downward pressure and hold the operating handle,
allowing it to rise to its full height.
Bench Mounting (Fig. A1)
Holes 18 are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting. Two
different-sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes of screws.
Use either hole; it is not necessary to use both.
Always mount your saw firmly to a stable surface to prevent movement.
To enhance the tool's portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 12.7 mm
or thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or
moved to other job sites and reclamped.
nOTE: If you elect to mount your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that
the mounting screws don't protrude from the bottom of the wood. The
plywood must sit flush on the work support. When clamping the saw to
any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where the mounting
screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will interfere with the
proper operation of the saw.

CAUTION: To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the mounting
surface is not warped or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks on the
surface, place a thin piece of material under one saw foot until the saw
sits firmly on the mounting surface.
Assembling the Base Extensions (Fig. Z)

WARNING: Base extensions must be assembled to both sides of
the saw's base before using the saw.

WARNING: Be sure to adjust the base extensions using the
mounting holes so they are level with the saw's base.
1. Locate the holes above the hand indentations
the base.
2. Using the supplied wrench or a T30 wrench, attach the screw
through the washer , through the base extension
64
holes on the base.
3. Ensure the extension is secure by pulling on the extension to verify
no movement.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 on the other side.
