dado blade. Possible loss of control and injury may
result.
CAUTION:
•Be sure to return the stopper arm to the original
position when performing other than groove cutting.

Carrying tool

Make sure that the tool is unplugged. Secure the blade at
0° bevel angle and the turn base at right miter angle fully.
Secure the slide poles after pulling the carriage toward
you fully. Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered
position by pushing in the stopper pin.
Carry the tool by holding both sides of the tool base as
shown in the figure. If you remove the holders, dust bag,
etc., you can carry the tool more easily.
CAUTION:
•Always secure all moving portions before carrying
the tool.
•Stopper pin is for carrying and storage purposes
only and not for any cutting operations.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
WARNING :
•Always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean for
the best and safest performance.

Adjusting the cutting angle

This tool is carefully adjusted and aligned at the factory,
but rough handling may have affected the alignment. If
your tool is not aligned properly, perform the following:
1. Miter angle
Push the carriage toward the guide fence and
tighten the knob to secure the carriage.
Loosen the grip which secures the turn base. Turn
the turn base so that the pointer points to 0° on the
miter scale. Then turn the turn base slightly clock-
wise and counterclockwise to seat the turn base in
the 0° miter notch. (Leave as it is if the pointer does
not point to 0°.) Loosen the hex bolts securing the
guide fence using the socket wrench.
Lower the handle fully and lock it in the lowered
position by pushing in the stopper pin. Square the
side of the blade with the face of the guide fence
using a triangular rule, try-square, etc. Then
securely tighten the hex bolts on the guide fence in
the order from the right side.
Make sure that the pointer points to 0° on the miter
scale. If the pointer does not point to 0°, loosen the
screw which secures the pointer and adjust the
pointer so that it will point to 0°.
