10 ADJUSTMENTS
10.1
Replacing the saw blade (Fig. 4)
Only use sharp and undamaged saw blades. Cracked or bent saw blades must be replaced
immediately.
▪
Place this circular saw on its side on a flat surface. Advice you bring the base plate (10)
down as if a minimum depth cut which is ease to operate.
▪
Push the spindle lock button toward motor housing as the arrow shows in Fig. 4 and firmly
hold it.
▪
Turn the blade clamp bolt anti clockwise by using the Allen key that supplied with the tool.
▪
Remove the blade clamp bolt and outer flange.
▪
Raise the lower guard (11) by using the lever for lower guard (9), and then remove the
saw blade.
▪
Clean the saw blade flanges, then mount the new saw blade onto the output spindle and
against the inner flange.
▪
Make sure the saw teeth and arrow on the blade is to be the same direction as the arrow
on the lower guard.
▪
Reinstall the outer flange, and tighten the blade clamp bolt.
▪
Make sure that the saw blade runs freely by turning the blade by hand.
10.2
Adjusting the depth of cut (Fig. 5)
The depth of cut is infinitely adjustable. A clean cut is achieved with the saw blade protruding
from the material by approx. 3 mm.
▪
Loosen the lock lever for depth adjustment (16).
▪
Hold the base plate (10) flat against the edge of the work piece and lift the body of the saw
until the blade is at the right depth determined by the depth gauge (17) (align the scale
line).
▪
Tighten the lock lever for depth adjustment.
10.3
Setting the mitre angle (Fig. 6)
The mitre angle is infinitely variable between 0° and 45°.
▪
Loosen the lock lever for angle adjustment (2).
▪
Adjust the shoe to the desired angle between 0°to 45°.
▪
Tighten the lock lever for angle adjustment.
10.4
Mounting the parallel fence (Fig. 7)
The parallel fence allows sawing parallel to an edge at a maximum distance of 10 cm.
▪
Loosen the adjustment screw of guide bar (1).
▪
Slide the guide bar (15) through the slots in the base plate to the desired width.
▪
Tighten the adjusting screw to secure it in the position.
▪
Ensure that the guide bar rests against the wood along its entire length to give consistent
parallel cuts.
11 OPERATION
11.1
Instructions for use
▪
Clamp the workpiece. Make sure that the side which will be visible later is facing down,
because the cut is most accurate at that side.
▪
Switch on the machine before it touches the workpiece. Do not exert pressure on the saw
blade. Allow the machine enough time to cut the workpiece.
▪
Hold the machine with both hands using both grips. This ensures optimum control over the
machine.
▪
For straight cuts along a drawn line use the marking for straight cuts.
▪
For bevel cuts along a drawn line use the marking for bevel cuts.
