ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting, adding accesso-
ries, or checking a function on the tool.
WARNING:
6-1/4 in. is the maximum blade capacity of your saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to
allow the outer flange washer to fit properly on the spindle. An overly thick blade will prevent the blade
bolt from securing the blade on the spindle. Larger diameter blades will contact the blade guards. Either
situation could result in a serious accident.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT
1. Unplug your track saw.
2. Loosen the depth adjustment lock and slide it up or down so the top of the gauge is flush with the depth that
you would like to cut at.
3. Lock the depth gauge in place. Test the depth to make sure it seems correct before plugging the saw back in.
NOTE: Always maintain the correct blade-depth setting. All cuts should not exceed 1/8 in. below the material
being cut, as excessive blade depth increases the chance of saw kickback and contact with hidden surfaces beneath
the workpiece.
ADJUSTING THE ANGLE OF THE CUT
1. Unplug the saw.
2. Loosen the bevel locks found on the front and back of the saw. Bevel the saw so that the angle indication arrow
is pointed at the desired angle.
3. Tighten the bevel lock knob securely.
4. Make a test cut in scrap lumber and measure the angle of the cut to confirm that the bevel angle is properly set.
If necessary, adjust the bevel angle appropriately before cutting the actual work piece.
NOTE: Adjust the angle indication arrow as needed if angles are consistently incorrect by loosening the inside
screw found on the interior lip of the bevel gauge.
LINE-OF-CUT INDICATORS
A line-of-cut indicator notch can be found at the front and back of the saw base. This notch helps provide indica-
tion of where the cut will be occurring.
NOTE: Since blade thicknesses vary, it is necessary to make test cuts along a guideline in scrap material to deter-
mine the proper alignment of the guideline within the notch. This will help to obtain an accurate cut with blades
of various thicknesses.
