SEE FIGURE 17 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE.

CAUTION: THE GUARD MUST BE ADJUSTED EVERY TIME THAT THE STROKE OF
THE MACHINE IS ADJUSTED.
TO ADJUST THE GUARD:
1. Before adjusting the guard, set the up and down stroke of the machine, following the instructions
in SECTION 7.2B.
2. With the saw head in the UP position, loosen the bolt (A) in the guard stop (B).
3. Raise the movable section of the guard (C) so that it just clears the vise jaws by no more than 1/8
of an inch (3mm).
4. Adjust the guard stop (B) until it contacts the stop on the fixed section of the guard and tighten the
bolt (A).
5. Without powering the machine, cycle the head of the saw several times, to make sure that the
adjustment is correct.
 NEVER PLACE ANY PART OF YOUR BODY NEAR THE BLADE OR THE GUARD WHILE
THE MACHINE IS RUNNING!
