instruction book carefully.
ADJUSTMENT
With this saw there are two things you can adjust:
the blade cutting depth and the bevel cutting
angle.
1. DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT (SEE FIG. A)
Lift the Depth of Cut Lock Lever(3) and raise the
saw body away from the Base Plate(7). Set the
depth of cut with the scale and push the lever
down to lock. Always add 3mm to your depth of
cut so that the blade can cut through the material.
2. BASE PLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT (SEE
FIG. B)
Turn the Base Plate Bevel Lock(6) in anti-
clockwise direction to loosen the Angle Scale(5).
Tilt the Base Plate(7) away from the machine
until the required cutting angle is adjusted on the
Angle Scale. Tighten the Bevel Lock by turning
it in clockwise direction. Do not use the depth of
cut scale when making bevel cuts due to possible
inaccuracy.
USING THE CIRCULAR SAW

2. CUTTING GUIDE (SEE FIG. D & E)
There is a cutting guide notch on the front of the
Base Plate for use with a Parallel Guide(8). For
straight cuts, use the 0º guide mark to align with
your Parallel Guide scale. For a 45º bevel cut,
use the 45º guide mark to align with your parallel
guide scale. Securely clamp the Parallel Guide.
Always make a trial cut to check the setting.
3. PARALLEL GUIDE ADJUSTMENT (SEE FIG.
F)
The Parallel Guide enables exact cuts along a
workpiece edge and cutting strips of the same
dimension. It can be used from both sides of the
Base Plate.
4. RIVING kNIFE ADJUSTMENT (SEE FIG. G)
The riving knife prevents the blade from being
jammed by the work piece. Check and ensure the
