Adjusting the Saw Prior to Cutting
Step 1) | To adjust the angle of the Saw Blade up to 50° loosen the Bevel Adjustment |
| Knob (part #50) and move the Shoe (part #53) down paying attention to the |
| degrees indicated on the angle scale (See Figure 4). Once set, retighten the |
| Bevel Adjustment Knob (part #50). |
Step 2) | To adjust the depth of the cut, loosen the Depth Adjustment Knob (part #7) |
| (See Figure 4). Move the Shoe (#53) down while observing the amount |
| of Saw Blade exposed under the Shoe (#53). Once adjusted, tighten the |
| Depth Adjustment Knob (#7). |
Prepare Material Before Cutting | |
Step 1) | Support large panels to minimize the risk of pinching the Saw Blade and to |
| reduce the risk of kickback. |
Step 2) | Use the Rip Fence (part #49) when ripping material. |
Step 3) | Securely clamp the work piece to be cut to the workbench. |
Step 4) | Make sure the Saw does not cut into the supports or the workbench. |
Note: | Use the appropriate type of Saw Blade for the material you are cutting. |

Before operating your Circular
Cutting |
|
Step 1) | Position the Rip Fence (part #49) to guide the Saw on a straight path. |
Step 2) | With your left hand resting on the front portion of the Body (part #9/13), position your right hand |
| on the upper portion of the handle portion of the Body (directly above the Trigger/Safety). |
Step 3) | Place the front edge of the Shoe (part #53) on the front edge of the material to be cut. Align |
| the front notch (right notch aligns with the Saw Blade) on the cut line. |
Step 4) | Pull the Safety (part #18) back with the middle finger and squeeze the Trigger |
| (part #20) with the index finger. Do this before the Saw Blade touches the |
| work piece. |
Step 5) | With the Saw at full speed, move it slowly forward to start the cut. |
Step 6) | When the cut is complete, release the Trigger (part #20). Do not set the |
