ADJUSTING THE RIVING KNIFE

(FIG. 6)

		WARNING!
		Do not use saw blades the disk of which is
		thicker, or the set of which is smaller, then the
		thickness of the riving knife.
	1.	Ensure that the riving knife is adjusted so that (Fig. 6):
		A. The distance between the riving knife (11) and the
		toothed rim of the saw blade is under 5 mm.
		B. The toothed rim does not extend more than 5 mm
		beyond the lower edge of the riving knife.
	2.	The riving knife should always be used except when
		making a plunging cut in the middle of a workpiece.

	ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (FIG. 7A,
	7B, 8, 9)
	1.	To adjust the depth of cut, loosen the depth
/		adjustment knob (12). (Fig. 7A)
	2.	Slide the base plate (13) to the desired depth using
WS-6613
		the depth adjustment lug (21) and retighten the knob
		securely. (Fig. 7B)
	3. The depth of cut (14) can be determined by the depth
		scale (15) or by measuring the distance by which the
/		blade protrudes from the base plate. (Fig. 8 and 9)
6613-WS
	ADJUSTING THE CUTTING ANGLE (FIG.
	10A, 10B)
	1. The cutting angle may be set to any position between
		0° and 45°. (Fig. 10A)
	2. Loosen the bevel adjustment knob (16) at the front of
		the tool and move the base plate to the desired angle
		using the bevel scale (17). (Fig.10B)

3. Once the angle has been set, be sure to retighten the bevel adjustment knob firmly.

TRIGGER SWITCH (FIG. 11)

This tool is started and stopped by squeezing and releasing the trigger switch (18). To prevent the tool from being started accidentally, the trigger can only be operated if the safety button (19) is depressed first. The safety button can be depressed with the thumb leaving the other fingers free to squeeze the trigger switch. It is not necessary to maintain pressure on the safety button once the trigger switch has been depressed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (FIG. 12)

DANGER!

KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THE CUTTING AREA WHEN OPERATING THE TOOL. KEEP THE CORD AWAY FROM THE CUTTING AREA AND POSITION IT SO THAT IT WILL NOT GET CAUGHT ON THE WORKPIECE DURING THE CUTTING OPERATION.

When cutting, use steady and even pressure (DO NOT FORCE) in order to obtain a uniform cut. Cut at a speed suited to the workpiece. (Cut slowly if the workpiece is hard.) Inspect the saw blade frequently and replace or sharpen it if dull, to avoid overloading the motor.

CUTTING POSITION (FIG. 13A, 13B)

When cutting a workpiece at 0°, use point "A" of the base plate line guide (20) and move the saw along the pencilled line you have drawn. When cutting at 45°, use point "B". This line guide shows an approximate line of cut. Make a sample cut in scrap lumber to determine the actual line of cut.

CAUTION!

When ripping, the rip fence should only touch the workpiece slightly. Do not force.

MAINTENANCE

After use, check the tool to make sure that it is in top condition.

We recommended that you take this tool to an Authorised Ryobi Service Centre for a thorough cleaning and lubrication at least once a year.

DO NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS WHILE THE MOTOR IS RUNNING.

ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM THE SOCKET BEFORE CHANGING REMOVABLE OR EXPENDABLE PARTS (BLADE, BIT, SANDPAPER, ETC.), LUBRICATING OR WORKING ON THE SAW.

KEEP HANDLES CLEAN AND FREE FROM OIL AND GREASE.

WARNING!

For greater safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by an Authorised Ryobi Service Centre.
