or gases.
ASSEMBLY/ SET-UP
Always unplug saw from power supply before any of the following
operations.
Never modify the power tool or any part of it.
Damage or personal
injury could result.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT(FIGURE F, F1 & G)
The depth of cut should be set according to the thickness of the workpiece.
• Loosen the lever (11) to unlock the saw shoe (
figures F & F1
).
• Move the saw shoe (5) into the desired
position. The corresponding depth of cut
can be read from the scale (12).
• Tighten the lever to lock the saw shoe in
place.
• Set depth adjustment of saw such that one
half of a tooth of the blade projects below
the workpiece as shown in
figure G
.
Setting the saw at the proper cutting depth
keeps blade friction to a minimum, removes
sawdust from between the blade teeth,
results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces
the chance of kickback.
