OPERATION
BASIC SAW OPERATIONS
RAISE THE BLADE (FIG. MM)
To raise or lower the blade, turn the
blade elevation handwheel (1) to the
desired blade height, and then tighten
the bevel lock handle (2) to maintain
the desired blade angle.
Fig. MM
TILTING THE BLADE
Two methods are available for tilting
the saw blade.
Rapid blade tilting:
Loosen the bevel lock handle (2), move
the handwheel (1) to the desired angle,
then tighten the bevel lock handle.
Fine adjustment blade tilting:
Loosen the bevel lock handle (2), push
in the handwheel (1) and at the same
time turn the handwheel (1) to tilt the
saw blade. When the saw blade is at
the desired angle, tighten the bevel
lock handle (2).
ON/OFF SWITCH (FIG. NN)
The ON / OFF switch has a safety
removal key. With the key removed from
the switch, unauthorized and hazardous
use by children and others is minimized.
1. To turn the saw ON, insert the safety
switch key (1) into the slot in the
switch (2). Move the switch upward
to the ON position.
2. To turn the saw OFF, move the
switch downward.
3. To lock the switch in the OFF position,
grasp the end (or yellow part) of the
safety switch key (1), and pull it out.
4. With the safety removal key
removed, the switch will not operate.
5. If the safety removal key is removed
while the saw is running, it can be
turned OFF but cannot be restarted
without inserting the switch key (1).

OVERLOAD PROTECTION (FIG. NN)
This saw has an overload reset button
(3) that resets the motor after it shuts off
due to overloading or low voltage. If the
motor stops during operation, turn the
ON / OFF switch to the OFF position.
Wait about five minutes for the motor to
cool, the push the reset button (3) and
turn the switch to the ON position.
To avoid injury, the ON / OFF switch
should be in the OFF position and
the plug removed from the power
source while the cool down takes
place, to prevent accidental starting
when the reset button is pushed.
Overheating may be caused by
misaligned parts or a dull blade or
undersized extensing cord. Inspect
your saw for proper setup before
using it again.
