To Carry (Fig. 1)

Fold down unit to position where you can carry the saw. Push in lock pin (A) to lock arm down.

Unlocking (Fig. 1)

To unlock tool and raise head, depress motor arm slightly and pull lock pin (A) out. Motor arm will then pivot upward.

Material Clamping and Supporting

Angles are best clamped and cut with both legs resting against base.

A spacer block slightly narrower than the workpiece can be used to increase wheel utilization (Fig. 2).

Long workpieces must be supported by a block so it will be level with top of base (Fig. 3). The cut-off end should be free to fall downward to avoid wheel binding.

Spark Deflector Adjustment (Fig. 1)

To best deflect sparks away from surrounding persons and materials, loosen the screw (B), adjust the spark deflector (C) and then retighten screw. Do not allow cordset to come into contact with deflector or sparks as damage to cordset may occur.
