CUTTING
CAUTION: While operating the saw, be certain the base plate maintains constant contact with the surface of the material you are cutting. If the base plate becomes separated from the material during operation, it may cause the blade to break or the saw to kick back potentially resulting in injury.
1. Straight Line Cutting
When cutting a straight line, use a straight edge to draw a marking gauge line and advance the saw along that line. An optional guide (part # 13550.5521) may also be used to cut accurate straight lines parallel to the edge of the material:

Part #:

To insert the guide:
a)Unplug the saw.
b)Loosen the bolt in the footplate using the allen wrench included with the saw – Fig 18.
c)Move the base fully forward and tighten the bolt in the base plate – Fig 19.
d)Insert the guide by passing it through the guides in the top of the base plate and tighten the guide bolt to secure it in place – Fig. 20.
