Kerf Insert Adjustment | FIG. 17 |
The kerf inserts should be adjusted close to the blade, but without touching the blade, to avoid tear- out on the bottom of the workpiece.
1. Hold the saw head assembly down and push in the head assembly lock pin (item 36 – page 8) to keep the saw in the DOWN position.
2. Loosen the two kerf insert screws using a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
3. Adjust the kerf inserts as close to the blade (teeth) as possible without touching the blade.
4. Tighten the kerf screws.
NOTE: At extreme bevel angles, the saw blade may slightly cut into kerf insert.
