OPERATION
WARNING:
Always cut in a forward direction when pocket
cutting. Cutting in the reverse direction could
cause the saw to climb up on the workpiece and
back toward you.

ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply and the
switch is in the OFF position. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
POSITIVE 0° BEVEL STOP
See Figures 21 - 22, page 17.
The saw has a positive 0° bevel stop that has been factory
adjusted to assure 0° angle of the saw blade when making
90° cuts. However, misalignment can occur during shipping.
To check positive 0° bevel stop:
 Unplug the saw.
 Place the saw in an upside down position on a
workbench.
 Move the lower blade guard out of the way so that the
saw blade is exposed.
 Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
 Lift the saw from the workpiece.
 Clear corners out with a hand saw or sabre saw.
 Check the squareness of the saw blade to the base of
the saw using a combination square.
To adjust positive 0° bevel stop:
 Unplug the saw.
 Pull bevel adjustment lever upward to release.
 Turn Torx T-8 adjustment screw with Torx T-8 wrench and
adjust base until it is square with the saw blade.
 Securely lock the bevel adjustment lever.
WARNING:
Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel
adjustment lever securely locked in place can
result in serious injury.
