20V 6-1/2" CIRCULAR SAW
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
Attempting to make bevel cuts without the bevel-adjustment knob
securely tightened can result in serious injury.
WARNING:
Because of the increased amount of blade engagement in the work while
bevel cutting and decreased stability of the foot, blade binding may occur. Keep the saw
steady and the foot firmly on the workpiece.
NOTICE:
When bevel cutting, the depth of cut does not correspond with value on the depth
of cut gauge.
NOTICE:
Since the 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 workpiece to be cut.
6. 0° Bevel Check and Adjustment
Your tool has a 0° bevel stop, which has
been adjusted before shipment to assure
that the blade is vertical to the foot at
0°bevel cutting.
To check and adjust to 0° Bevel:
a) Detach the battery pack from the
tool.
b) Set the foot to the maximum
depth-of-cut setting. Loosen the
bevel-adjustment knob, set the
saw to 0° bevel on the bevel
gauge, retighten the bevel-
adjustment knob.
c) Turn the saw upside down and
place it on a stable surface. Check
for an angle of 90° between the
blade and the underside of the
foot with a square.
d) If adjustment is necessary, loosen
the bevel-adjustment knob.
Place the saw in an upside-down
position on a workbench. Use a
Philips-screwdriver to turn the 0°
bevel-stop-adjustment screw until
the foot is square with the saw
blade.
