TELESCOPING GUARD
The telescoping guard (C) Fig. 2 is a safety device important to your
protection. Every time you use the saw, verify that the telescoping guard
rotates freely and returns quickly and completely to its closed position. At
least once a month, remove any accumulated debris (sawdust, pitch, etc.)
from the area around the hub (B) of the telescoping guard. DO NOT
LUBRICATE THIS AREA. The hub has a dry film lubricated surface that
does not need oiling. DO NOT block or wedge the telescoping guard in the
open position.
DO NOT use your saw if the telescoping guard is not in
working order. If telescoping guard movement is sluggish or
binding exists, return the saw to your nearest
AUTHORIZED PORTER-CABLE SERVICE STATION or
PORTER-CABLE SERVICE CENTER for repair.
TO ADJUST DEPTH OF CUT FOR NORMAL CUTTING

thickness of the workpiece. To adjust:
DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
1. Loosen the depth adjustment locking knob (A) Fig. 3, located at the rear
of the saw.
2. Raise or lower the saw housing to the correct level.
3. Tighten the depth-adjusting locking knob firmly to lock the saw in the
selected position.

TO ADJUST FOR BEVEL CUTS
DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
1. Loosen the bevel adjusting knob (A) Fig. 4.
2. Tilt the saw base until the desired graduation line on the bevel segment
(B) Fig. 4 aligns with the indicator (C) Fig. 4 on the bracket.
3. Tighten the bevel adjusting knob firmly.
4. For bevel cuts greater than 45°, set the guide on the 45° mark. Lift the
bevel adjusting knob into the slot (D) Fig. 4 and move the saw base to
the greater angle. Tighten the bevel adjusting lever firmly.
