f Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
Warning! Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse
dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure.
Direct particles away from face and body.
Caution! Wear appropriate hearing protection during
use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise
from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
f Snagging the lower guard on a surface below
the material being cut can momentarily
reduce operator control. The saw can lift partially
out of the cut increasing the chance of blade twist.
Ensure there is sufficient clearance under the
workpiece.
f When necessary to raise lower guard manually,
use the retracting lever.
f Keep the Blades Clean and Sharp. Sharp blades
minimize stalling and kickback. The use of dull and/
or dirty blades can increase the saw loading causing
the operator to push harder which promotes twisting.
Caution! Laceration Hazard. Keep hands away from
cutting areas. Keep hands away from blades. Never
place hands in front of or behind the path of the blade
while cutting. Do not reach underneath work while blade is
rotating. Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade
is moving.
f Support large panels. Large panels must be
supported as shown (Fig. A) in this manual to
minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback.
Material supported only at the ends (Fig. B) will lead
to blade pinching. When cutting operation requires
the resting of the saw on the workpiece, the saw shall
be rested on the larger portion and the smaller piece
cut off.
f Use only correct blades and blade assembly
components when mounting blades. Do not use
blades with incorrect size holes. Never use defective
or incorrect blade washers or bolts. Follow blade
assembly procedures.
f Adjustments. Before cutting be sure depth and bevel
adjustments are tight.
f Support and secure the work properly. Insure
that the material to be cut is clamped (Fig. C) and
solidly supported and balanced on a strong, stable
and level work surface. Support the work so that
the wide portion of the saw shoe is on the portion of
the material that doesn't fall after the cut is made.
Never hold cut off piece by hand (Fig. D). KICKBACK
from blade pinch can result. Keep both hands on saw
at all times.
f Stay alert and exercise control. Keep body
positioned to one side of blade. Always maintain
a firm grip and control of saw with both hands. Do not
change hand grip or body position while saw is
running. Take precaution to avoid injury from cut off
pieces and other falling material during operation.
Danger! Release switch immediately if blade binds
or saw stalls.
ASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENT SET-UP
Warning! Always unplug saw from power supply before
any of the following operations.
Adjusting the Depth of Cut (Fig. F and G)
The depth of cut should be set according to the thickness
of the workpiece.
f Loosen the lever (12) to unlock the saw shoe.
f Move the saw shoe (4) into the desired position. The
corresponding depth of cut can be read from the scale
(13).
f Tighten the lever to lock the saw shoe in place.
f Set depth adjustment of saw such that one tooth of
the blade projects below the workpiece as shown in
(Fig. G).
Adjusting the Bevel Angle (Fig. H)
This tool can be set to bevel angles between 0° and 45°
f Loosen the locking knob (9) to unlock the saw shoe.
f Move the saw shoe (4) into the desired position. The
corresponding bevel angle can be read from the scale
(14).
f Tighten the locking knob to lock the saw shoe in
place.
Attaching the Blade (Fig. I and J)
f To prevent spindle rotation engage the protrusions of
the spanner wrench (8) into the holes in the outer
washer (10) as shown in (Fig. I).
f Loosen and remove the blade retaining screw (11) by
turning the hex wrench (15) counter- clockwise.
f Remove the outer washer.
f Place the saw blade (5) onto the inner flange (16),
making sure that the arrow on the blade points in the
same direction as the arrow on the tool.
f Fit the outer washer (10) on the spindle, with the
beveled edge facing away from the blade.
f Insert the blade retaining screw (11) into the hole in the
spindle.
f Prevent spindle rotation by engaging the spanner
wrench into the holes of the outer washer.
