Stopper arm
The lower limit position of the blade can be easily
adjusted with the stopper arm. To adjust it, rotate the
stopper arm in the direction of the arrow as shown in the
figure. Adjust the adjusting screw so that the blade stops
at the desired position when lowering the handle fully.
Adjusting the miter angle
Loosen the grip by turning counterclockwise. Turn the
turn base while pressing down the lock lever. When you
have moved the grip to the position where the pointer
points to the desired angle on the miter scale, securely
tighten the grip clockwise.
CAUTION:
•When turning the turn base, be sure to raise the
handle fully.
•After changing the miter angle, always secure the
turn base by tightening the grip firmly.
Adjusting the bevel angle
To adjust the bevel angle, loosen the lever at the rear of
the tool counterclockwise. Unlock the arm by pushing the
handle somewhat strongly in the direction that you intend
to tilt the saw blade.
Tilt the saw blade until the pointer points to the desired
angle on the bevel scale. Then tighten the lever clock-
wise firmly to secure the arm.
CAUTION:
•When tilting the saw blade, be sure to raise the
handle fully.
•After changing the bevel angle, always secure the
arm by tightening the lever clockwise.
•When changing bevel angles, be sure to position
the kerf boards appropriately as explained in the
“Positioning kerf boards” section.
Switch action
CAUTION:
•Before plugging in the tool, always check to see
that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns
to the “OFF” position when released.
•When not using the tool, remove the lock-off button
and store it in a secure place. This prevents
unauthorized operation.
•Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing
in the lock-off button. This can cause switch
breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool,
press in the lock-off button and pull the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.
WARNING :
•NEVER use tool without a fully operative switch
trigger. Any tool with an inoperative switch is
HIGHLY DANGEROUS and must be repaired
before further usage.
