ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Do not plug in or turn on the tool until it is fully assembled according to the instructions. Read
through and become familiarized with the following procedures of handling and adjusting your track saw. Failure
to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.
DUST COLLECTION (FIG. 1)
A dust collection bag (not included) or vacuum sys-
tem should be used at all times. The inner diameter of
the dust port adapter is 35mm; the outer diameter is
39.5mm.
1. Locate the dust port on the track saw.
2. Insert the dust port adapter into the dust port. Posi-
tion the adapter so the dust hose or bag will not interfere
with your work.
3. Securely attach a dust bag or vacuum to the end of
the dust port adapter. If using a vacuum, make sure to
turn it ON before starting your cut.
MODE SELECTION (FIG. 2)
The mode selector switch enables fast and easy setting
of major functions by simply rotating the switch to the
desired mode of operation. The functions include:
A. Blade changing (see page 18 for instructions)
B. Free plunge, for general cutting
C. Scribe cut, for a scribe cut 2.5mm (0.1 in) deep
B. FREE PLUNGE MODE (FIG. 3)
The cutting depth can be set between 0" - 2-3/8" (0mm
- 59mm).
NOTE:
Always maintain an appropriate blade-
depth setting. The blade teeth should never protrude
more than 1/8" below the material being cut, as exces-
sive blade depth increases the chances of saw kickback
or contact with hidden surfaces beneath the workpiece.
1. Turn the mode selector switch to the free-plunge set-
ting (Fig. 2). Unplug your track saw. Loosen the depth
adjustment knob and slide it up or down so the indi-
cation arrow points to the desired depth on the depth
scale.

2. If you are using the saw
with the track,
turn the track compensation lever clockwise to the lower position to
compensate for the thickness of the track. If you are using the saw
without the track,
turn the track compensation
lever counterclockwise to the upper position.
3. Tighten the depth adjustment knob to lock it into place. Test the depth setting on a piece of scrap material to make
sure it is correct before plugging the saw back in.
