Operating The Saw; Adjusting Blade Depth - Ubermann UCS04BRA Manual Del Operador

OPERATION
Starting/Stopping the Saw
See Figure 10, page 21.
To start the saw:
• Depress the lock-off button.
• Depress the switch trigger.
Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw into
the workpiece.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before it
reaches full speed could cause the saw to "kickback" towards
you resulting in serious injury.
To stop the saw, release the switch trigger.
After you release the switch trigger, allow the blade to come to
a complete stop. Do not remove the saw from the workpiece
while the blade is moving.
Indexable Levers
See Figure 11, page 21.
The lock levers on the saw consist of a repositionable lever
and locking hex screw. The levers can be repositioned without
moving the hex screw for the best tightening orientation.
To reposition the lever:
• With the lever seated against the hex screw, rotate the lever
clockwise to lock the hex screw as tightly as possible with
the lever in the current position.
• Pull the lever away from the saw to disengage it from the hex
screw.
• Keep a steady pull on the lever, then rotate the lever as needed
to the desired position on the hex screw.
• Release the lever so that it snaps into place on the hex screw
NOTE: The lever may rotate slightly after release as ·it properly
seats on the hex screw.

Adjusting Blade Depth

See Figure 12, page 21.
Always keep correct blade depth setting. Less than a full tooth
of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. More
blade depth will increase the chance of kickback and cause the
cut to be rough.
• Remove the battery pack from the tool.
• Rotate depth lock lever away from the base.
• Determine the desired depth of cut.
• Hold base flat against the workpiece and raise or lower saw
until the index point or mark on the saw aligns with the desired
depth on the scale.
• Rotate depth lock lever toward the base to lock into position.
NOTE: If the lever contacts the base prior to the base being
fully locked into position, refer to lndexable Levers earlier in
this manual to adjust the lever counterclockwise on the hex
screw.
NOTE: If the lever contacts the housing prior to the base being
loosened, refer to lndexable Levers earlier in this manual to
adjust the lever clockwise on the hex screw.

Operating the Saw

See Figures 13 and 14, page 21.
It is important to understand the correct method for operating
the saw. Refer to the figures in this section to learn the correct
and incorrect ways for handling the saw.
WARNING:
To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper control
of the saw by holding the saw with two hands. Loss of control
could cause an accident resulting in possible serious injury.
DANGER:
When lifting the saw from the workpiece, the blade is exposed
on the underside of the saw until the lower blade guard closes.
Make sure the lower blade guard is closed before setting the
saw down.
WARNING:
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control
which could cause possible serious injury.
