with the inch increments is facing “up”.

 

Slide the arm of the edge guide into

 

the mounting slots at the front of the

 

saw's base (see Fig. 14).

 

3. Adjust the edge guide to the desired length of cut.

4. Tighten the edge guide retaining screw.

5. Clamp and support the workpiece securely before making your cut.

6. Place the edge guide firmly against the

edge of the workpiece (See Fig. 14).

Doing this will give you a true cut without pinching the blade.

7.BE SURE that the guiding edge of the workpiece is straight so you can get a straight cut.

8.ALWAYS LET THE BLADE REACH FULL SPEED, then carefully guide the saw into the workpiece. DO NOT bind the blade in the cut. Push the saw forward at a speed where the blade is not laboring.

!WARNING: ALWAYS clamp and support workpiece securely. ALWAYS maintain proper control of saw. Failure to clamp and support workpiece and loss of control of saw could result in serious injury.

1.Your saw can be adjusted to cut at any angle between 0° and 45°.

2.When making 45° bevel cuts, line the left side of the notch in the saw's base with the penciled line of cut on your workpiece (see Fig. 13).

3.When making a bevel cut HOLD the saw FIRMLY with both hands (see Fig. 16).

4.Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece, then squeeze the trigger switch to start the saw. ALWAYS let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw into the workpiece.

5.After completing your cut, release the trigger switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop in the cut. DO NOT remove the saw from the workpiece while the blade

is moving. It will damage your bevel cut and cause Kickback.
