ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WArNING:
adjusting, adding accessories, or checking a function on the tool.
WArNING:
blade that is too thick to allow the outer flange washer to fit properly on the spindle. Too
thick a blade will prevent the blade bolt from securing the blade on the spindle. Larger
diameter blades will contact the blade guards. Either situation could result in a serious
accident.
BLADE INSTALLATION ( FIG 2 )
• unplug your circular saw.
• Depress the spindle lock (19).
• using the blade wrench (a) provided, remove the blade bolt
(13) by turning it counterclockwise.
• Remove the outer flange washer (13b).
• Lift the lower guard (2) and slide the blade onto the spindle.
The saw teeth point upward at the front of the saw.
• Replace the outer flange washer.
• Depress the spindle lock and replace the blade bolt.
• Tighten the blade bolt securely by turning it clockwise with
the wrench.
REMOVING THE BLADE
• unplug your circular saw.
• Depress the spindle lock.
• Remove the blade bolt by turning it counterclockwise with the wrench provided.
• Remove the outer flange washer.
• Lift the lower blade guard.
• Remove the blade from the spindle and off the saw.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT
• unplug your circular saw.
• Loosen the depth clamp lever on the depth guide at the back of saw.
• Move the base up or down to the desired depth as indicated on the depth of cut scale.
OR
• Raise the lower blade guard and place the saw base on the work piece to be cut with the saw blade positioned
against the edge. Hold the saw base down on the work piece surface, then raise or lower the motor housing to
obtain the desired depth of cut using the work piece edge as a reference.
• Secure the base by tightening the lever.
NOTE:
Always maintain the correct blade depth setting. for all cuts the blade depth should not exceed 1⁄4"
below the material being cut. excessive blade depth increases the chance of saw KICKBACK.
BEVEL ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
• Loosen the clamp knob at the bevel scale plate on the front of the saw base.
• Tilt the saw base until the desired graduation on the bevel scale aligns with the indicator line on the
stationary bevel bracket.
• Tighten the clamp knob securely.
• Always make a test cut in scrap lumber and measure the cut angle to confirm the bevel angle is set properly;
if necessary, adjust the bevel angle appropriately before cutting the work piece.
LINE-OF-CUT INDICATORS
• Line-of-cut indicator notch is provided at the front of the saw base.
• The right edge of the notch is used to follow a line when making a 0° cut.
• The left edge of the notch is used to follow a line when making a 45° bevel cut.
• Since blade thicknesses vary, it is necessary to make test cuts in scrap material, along a guideline, to
determine proper alignment of the guideline within the notch to obtain an accurate cut.
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before
7-1/4" is the maximum blade capacity of your saw. Never use a
