DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct blade
depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. below the
material to be cut. More blade depth will increase the chance
of kickback and cause the cut to be rough.
TO ADJUST BLADE DEPTH
■
Unplug your saw.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting
causing possible serious personal injury.
■
Loosen depth adjustment knob.
See Figure 8.
■
Hold base flat against the work and raise or lower saw
until the required depth is reached.
■
Tighten depth adjustment knob securely.
STARTING A CUT
KNOW THE RIGHT WAY TO USE YOUR SAW.
See Figure 10.
NEVER USE YOUR SAW AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 9.
NEVER PLACE YOUR HAND ON THE WORKPIECE
BEHIND YOUR SAW WHILE MAKING A CUT.
WARNING:
To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper
control of your saw. Loss of control of your saw could cause
an accident resulting in possible serious injury.
TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL:
■
Always support your work near the cut.
■
Support your work so the cut will be on your right.
■
Clamp your work so it will not move during the cut.
Place your work with its good side down.
NOTE: The good side is the side on which appearance is
important.
Before beginning a cut, draw a guide line along the desired
line of cut. Then place the front edge of the base on that part
of your work that is solidly supported.
See Figure 10.
