5. Adjusting the guide piece
On the circular saw, it is possible to make
fi
ne adjustment of the
fi
xing position of
the guide piece, where the saw blade
and the premarked line are to be aligned.
When the saw is shipped from the
factory, the linear portion of a front scale
on the guide piece is aligned with the
central position of the saw blade (
Fig. 9
).
Loosen
the
fi
xed M4 screw on the guide
piece, should the
fi
xing position be wrong, and make
necessary adjustment of the position.
6. Using the dust collector
To use the vacuum cleaner to gather up saw dust, attach
the suction hose to the dust collector which is attached
to the main unit by M4 screw. When attaching the dust
collector always be sure to change the lever to the short
type at this same time (
Fig. 10
).
CAUTION
Continuing to use the lever that was attached to the main unit prior to shipping
from the factory will cause it to bind on the dust collector and will interfere with the
lower guard operation.
CUTTING PROCEDURES
1. Place the base on the material, then align the premarked line and the sawblade with the
guide piece front scale section at the front of the base (
Fig. 9
).
When the base is not slanted, use the large cutout as the guide (
Fig. 9
and
Fig. 11
).
If the base is slanted (45 degrees), use the small front scale as the guide (
Fig. 9
and
Fig. 12
).

2. Ensure that the switch is turned to the ON position before the saw blade comes in contact
with the lumber. The switch is turned ON when the trigger is squeezed; and OFF when the
trigger is released.
3. Moving the saw straight at a constant speed will produce optimum cutting.
