BEVEL ADjUSTMENT
Disconnect battery pack from tool. The foot
can be adjusted up to 50° by loosening the
bevel adjustment knob at the front of the saw.
Align to desired angle on calibrated quadrant.
Then tighten bevel adjustment knob (Fig. 8).
Because of the increased amount of blade
engagement in the work and decreased
stability of the foot, blade binding may occur.
Keep the saw steady and the foot firmly on the
workpiece.
ADjUSTABLE LINE GUIDE
(Model 5995 only)
For a straight 90° cut you can use the left or
right side of notch in the foot. For 45° & 50°
bevel cuts, use the right side (Fig 9). The
guide can be adjusted to allow for variation in
blade thicknesses for whichever side of the
blade the user would prefer to cut the line on.
TO ATTACH: Disconnect battery pack from
tool. Align hole in adjustable line guide with
hole in foot and secure with screw provide.
TO ADJUST: Loosen but don't remove, the
adjustment screw enough so the guide can

have the battery connected to the tool.
Pay attention to the placement of the saw
blade with respect to your hands and body
and avoid accidental actuation of the
power switch. Accidental start-up of the
saw may cause injury.
Your tool is equipped with a laser line guide
that will turn on whenever the battery is
connected to the tool and the laser button is
pushed in. The two laser lines are set to the
kerf of the blade supplied and indicate the
outer edges of the blade. If you use a blade
with a different kerf the laser lines will need to
be adjusted to match the kerf of the new
blade. You should adjust the laser lines to
whichever side of the blade the user would
prefer the cut line to be on. The laser guide
does not need to be adjusted for bevel cuts
after it is aligned for straight 90° cuts.
If using the laser line guide for cutting you do
not need the line guide incorporated in the
