DROP FOOT WARNING:

To prevent accidental starting that could cause possible serious personal injury, turn off the saw and unplug the saw from the power source before making any adjust- ments.

See Figure 6.

To prevent workpiece from lifting, the drop foot should be adjusted so it just rests on the top of the workpiece. The drop foot should not be adjusted so that the workpiece drags. Always retighten the drop foot lock knob after each adjust- ment has been made.

Loosen the drop foot lock knob.

Lower or raise the drop foot to the desired position.

Retighten the drop foot lock knob.

The tall, front part of the drop foot acts as a blade guard to prevent accidental contact with the blade.
