USE OF CUTLINE
™
LED WORKLIGHT (FIG. 4)
CAUTION: Do not stare into worklight.
Serious eye injury could result.
The CUTLINE
™
LED Worklight can be turned on by the momentary switch (S). The light will
automatically turn off within 20 seconds if the saw is not in use. The light is also activated
automatically every time the tool's main trigger (B) is pulled.
To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood, turn on the CUTLINE™ worklight
using the momentary switch (S) (not with the main trigger), then pull down on the operating
handle (A) to bring the saw blade close to the wood. The shadow of the blade will appear
on the wood. This shadow line represents the material that the blade will remove when
performing a cut. To correctly locate your cut to the pencil line, align the pencil line with the
edge of the blade’s shadow. Keep in mind that you may have to adjust the miter or bevel
angles in order to match the pencil line exactly.
Your saw is equipped with a battery monitoring feature. The CUTLINE™ worklight begins to
flash when the battery is near the end of its useful charge and/or when the battery is too hot.
Charge the battery prior to continuing cutting applications. Refer to
Charging Procedure
under
Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Packs
for battery charging
instructions.

BEVEL LOCK (FIG. 7)
The bevel lock allows you to bevel the saw 49° left or right. To adjust the bevel setting, turn
the bevel lock knob (Z) counterclockwise. The saw head will then bevel easily to the left or to
the right. To tighten, turn the bevel lock knob clockwise.

BEVEL OVERRIDE (FIG. 7)
The bevel override allows you to bevel the saw to the right, past the 0° mark.
When the 0° bevel override lever (AB) is engaged (the lever will be turned up), the saw will
automatically stop at 0° when brought up from the left. To move past 0° to the right, bevel
the saw slightly to the left of 0°, then pull the 0° bevel override lever (AB) out. The saw head
can now be beveled past 0° to the right. Lock the saw head at the desired angle by turning
the bevel lock knob (Z) clockwise to tighten. The 0° bevel override lever can be locked out by
