Cutting Depth and

Adjustment

1.Loosen the silver knob to the left and below the hand grip.

2.Pull or push the saw base to expose more or less saw blade.

3.To check the depth of cut, compare the blade depth to the workpiece thickness and adjust saw base until approximately 14" of the blade is exposed past the thickness of the workpiece.

4.Tighten the lock knob.

Setting the Edge Guide

1.Loosen the edge guide set knob located on the top leading edge of the saw base.

2.Insert the edge guide in the slot just below the retaining screw.

3.Slide the edge guide until it is insert- ed through a slot provided on the left hand side of the saw base.

4.Determine the width of cut needed for your project and slide the edge guide using the scale provided.

5.Tighten the edge guide set knob. Always double check the distance between the tip of the blade to the inside edge of the edge guide. Blade thicknesses can very, causing the scale on the edge guide to read inac- curately.

Adjust saw base so that approximate- ly 14" of the blade is exposed past the thickness of the workpiece to help avoid potential kick-back.
