does not indicate zero, loosen the screw
move the pointer as necessary. Do not remove the steel plate in front of the bevel pointer. This
plate prevents wood resin from accumulating on the bevel scale during use.

Adjusting the Bevel Stop to 45° Left or Right (Fig. J)
nOTE: Adjust the 45° bevel angles only after performing the 0° bevel angle and pointer
adjustment. Ensure the 45° bevel override levers

To adjust the right 22.5° bevel angle, flip out the right 22.5° bevel pawl. Loosen the bevel
lock knob and pull the 0° bevel stop to override the 0° bevel stop. When the saw is fully to
the right, if the bevel pointer does not indicate exactly 22.5°, turn the crown adjustment

To set the 33.9° bevel angle, flip out the stop pawls
and tilt the head to the left. If the pointer does not indicate exactly 33.9°, turn the screw
contacting the pawl until the pointer reads 33.9°.

To adjust the right 33.9° bevel angle, flip out the stop pawl. Loosen the bevel lock knob
and pull the bevel stop override button
fully to the right, if the pointer does not indicate exactly 33.9°, turn the screw contacting the
pawl until the pointer indicates 33.9°.
Fence Adjustment (Fig. K)
In order that the saw can bevel to a full 48° left, the fences can be adjusted to provide clearance.
To adjust a fence, loosen the fence lock knob
with the saw turned off and check for clearance. Adjust the fence to be as close to the blade as
practical to provide max imum workpiece support, without interfering with arm up and down
movement. Tighten knob securely. When the bevel operations are complete, don't forget to
relocate the fence.
nOTE: The guide groove of the fences can become clogged with sawdust. If the guide groove
becomes clogged, use a stick, low pressure air or a vacuum to clear.

Automatic Electric Brake
Your saw is equipped with an automatic electric blade brake which stops the saw blade within
5 seconds of trigger release. This is not adjustable.
On occasion, there may be a delay after trigger release to brake engagement. On rare occasions,
the brake may not engage at all and the blade will coast to a stop.
If a delay or "skipping" occurs, turn the saw on and off 4 or 5 times. If the condition persists, have
the tool serviced by an authorized D
Always be sure the blade has stopped before removing it from the kerf plate. The brake is not a
substitute for guards. Ensure your own safety by giving the saw your complete attention.
Guard Actuation and Visibility (Fig. L)
CAUTION: Pinch Hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, keep thumb underneath the handle
when pulling the handle down. The lower guard will move up as the handle is pulled down
which could cause pinching.
The blade guard on your saw has been designed to automatically raise when the arm is brought
down and to lower over the blade when the arm is raised.
41
The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the
saw. NEVER RAISE THE BLADE GUARD MANUALLY UN LESS THE SAW IS TURNED OFF.
42
nOTE: Certain special cuts of large material will require that you manually raise the guard. Refer
to Cutting Large Material under Special Cuts.
19
The front section of the guard is louvered for visibility while cutting. Although the louvers
dramatically reduce flying debris, they are openings in the guard and safety glasses should be
worn at all times.
