ADJUSTING THE CUTTING ANGLE
This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at
the factory, but rough handing may have af-
fected the alignment.
If your tool is not aligned properly, perform
the following:
MITRE ANGLE (Fig. 13 & 14)
Push the carriage toward the guide fence and
tighten the locking screw to secure the car-
riage. Loosen the grip which secures the rotary
table.Turn the rotary table so that the pointer
points to 0º on the miter scale. Then turn the
rotary table slightly clockwise and counter-
closewise to set the rotary table in the 0º miter
notch.
Lower
the
handle
fully and lock it in to
the lowered position
by pushing in the
stop pin. Square the
side of the blade with
the face of the guide
fence using a triangu-
lar rule, tri-square, etc.
Make sure that the pointer points to 0° on the
miter scale. If the pointer does not point to 0°,
loosen the screw which secures the pointer and
adjust the pointer so that it will point to 0°.
BEVEL ANGLE
1. 0° Bevel Angle
Push the carriage to-
ward the guide fence
and tighten the lock-
ing screw to secure
the carriage.
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the low-
ered position by pushing in the stopper pin.
Loosen the lever at the rear of the tool (Fig.14).
Carefully square the side of the blade with the
top surface of the rotary table using the trian-
gular rule, try-square, etc.
Turn the hex bolt on
the arm slightly coun-
terclockwise or clock-
wise to tilt the blade
to the right position.
Then tighten the lever
securely (Fig.15).
Make sure that the pointer on the arm point

to 0° on the bevel scale on the arm holder. If
they do not point to 0°, loosen the screw which
secure the pointer and adjust it so that it will
point to 0°.
2. 45° Bevel Angle
Adjust the 45° bevel angle only after perform-
ing 0° bevel angle adjustment. To adjust left
45° bevel angle, loosen the lever and tilt the
blade to the left fully. Carefully measure the
angle of the side of the blade with the top
surface of the rotary table using the 45° trian-
gular rule.
Turn the left 45° bevel
angle adjusting bolt
on the arm slightly
counterclockwise
or
clockwise to tilt the
blade to the right po-
sition.
Then tighten the lever securely (Fig.16).
Make sure that the pointer on the arm point to
45°. If the pointer does not point to 45°, adjust
the pointer to 45° on the scale by loosening
the screw, and then tighten the screw.
CHANGE THE CARBON BRUSH
Remove and check the carbon brushes regu-
larly. Replace the carbon brushes when it is
worn out. Keep the carbon brushes clean and
free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes
should be replaced at the same time. Use only
identical carbon brushes. Use a screwdriver to
remove the brush holder caps. Take out the
worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
INSTALLING OR REMOVING SAW BLADE
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the blade.
• Use only the wrench provided to install or
remove the blade. Failure to do so may result
in over tightening or insufficient tightening of
the screw. This could cause an injury.
• To remove the blade, use cross screwdriver
to loosen the screw holding the center cover
and loosen the screw, but don't remove it. Turn
the center cover counterclockwise and raise
the blade guard. Press the spindle lock to lock
the spindle and use the wrench to loose the
screw clockwise. Then remove the screw, outer
flange and blade (Fig. 17 & 18).
