ADJUSTING DOWNWARD TRAVEL OF SAW BLADE
1.DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2.The downward travel of the saw blade should be limited to prevent the saw blade from contacting metal surfaces on the machine. Make this adjustment by loos- ening the locknut (A) Fig. 28 and turning the adjusting screw (B) in or out. NOTE: The bevel cover has been removed in Fig. 28 for clarity.
3.Lower the blade as far as possible. Check again to see that the saw is disconnected from the power source. Rotate the blade by hand to make certain the teeth do not contact any metal surfaces.
4.After the downward travel of the saw blade has been adjusted, tighten locknut (A) Fig. 28.
