Battery protection system
(Lithium-ion battery with star marking)
1
012128
Lithium-ion batteries with a star marking are equipped
with a protection system. This system automatically cuts
off power to the tool to extend battery life.
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the tool
and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
•
Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current.
In this situation, release the trigger switch on
the tool and stop the application that caused
the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the
trigger switch again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is
overheated. In this situation, let the battery
cool before pulling the trigger switch again.
•
Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and
the tool will not operate. In this situation,
remove and recharge the battery.
Adjusting depth of cut

CAUTION:
•
After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the
lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the side of the rear handle and move
the base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure
the base by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more
than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using
proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous
KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

Loosen the lever on the bevel scale plate on the front
base. Set for the desired angle (0° - 50°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the lever securely. Use the 45°
stopper when you do precise 45° angle cutting. Turn the
stopper counterclockwise fully for bevel cut (0° - 45°) and
turn it clockwise for 0° - 50° bevel cuts.
For Model DSS611
Loosen the lever on the bevel scale plate on the front
base. Set for the desired angle (0° - 50°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the lever securely.
