Disconnect battery pack from tool. The foot
can be adjusted up to 50° by loosening the
bevel adjustment knob at the front of the saw.
Align to desired angle on calibrated quadrant.
Then tighten bevel adjustment knob (Fig. 8).
Because of the increased amount of blade
engagement in the work and decreased
stability of the foot, blade binding may occur.
Keep the saw steady and the foot firmly on the
workpiece.

For a straight 90° cut, use left side of notch in
the foot. For 45° & 50° bevel cuts, use the right
side (Fig. 9). The cutting guide notch will give
an approximate line of cut. Make sample cuts in
scrap lumber to verify actual line of cut. This will
be helpful because of the number of different
blade types and thicknesses available. To
ensure minimum splintering on the good side of
the material to be cut, face the good side down.

To turn tool “ON”, squeeze the trigger switch.
To turn the tool “OFF”, release the trigger
switch, which is spring loaded and will return
to the off position automatically.
Your saw should be running at full speed
BEFORE starting the cut, and turned off only
AFTER completing the cut. To increase switch
life, do not turn switch on and off while cutting.

When the trigger is released it activates the
electrical brake to stop the blade quickly. This
feature is especially useful when making
repetitive cuts.

Always hold the saw handle with one hand
and the auxiliary handle or housing with the
other.
Always make sure saw foot rests on portion of

When cutting is interrupted, to resume cutting:
squeeze the trigger and allow the blade to
reach full speed, re-enter the cut slowly and
resume cutting.
When cutting across the grain, the fibers of
the wood have a ten den cy to tear and lift.
Advancing the saw slowly minimizes this
effect. For a finished cut, a cross cut blade or
miter blade is rec om mended.
