Head Assembly lock pin

The head assembly lock pin (figure 8) is used to hold the saw’s head assembly in the DOWN position. This position prevents the head from bouncing up and down during transportation. This also makes the saw more compact for lifting and storage. This position is also required for some calibrating procedures.

To Engage the Head Assembly lock pin:

1. Check that the depth stop plate is disengaged, pressed in against saw head, (figure 9).

2.	Grasp the saw’s main handle and press down on
	the head assembly.
3.	While pressing the saw head down, push in on the
	head assembly lock pin, (figure 8). Release the
	head assembly. The head will be locked in the
	DOWN position.	FIG. 9

To Disengage the Head Assembly lock pin:

1. Grasp the main handle and press down on the head assembly.

2. While pressing the head down, pull out the head assembly lock pin. Release the lock pin, but maintain your grip on the main handle. Slowly allow the spring-loaded saw head to come up to the top of its travel and then release the handle.
