TO CROSS CUT OR RIP CUT
When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of cut
with the outer blade guide notch on the saw base as
shown in figure 20.
OPERATION
Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut in
scrap material along a guideline to determine how much,
if any, the guideline must be offset to produce an accurate
cut.
Note: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline is
the amount you should offset the guideline.

A width of cut scale has been provided on the base of
your saw. When making straight cross cuts or rip cuts, the
scale can be used to measure up to four inches to the
right side of the blade. It can be used to measure up to
one inch to the left side of the blade.
RIP GUIDE (EDGE GUIDE)
Use the rip guide provided with your saw when making
wide rip cuts. A five inch scale has been provided on the
rip guide. When using the width of cut scale on the base
in combination with the rip guide, cuts can be made up to
6 in. to the left of the rip guide or 8-7/8 in. to the right of
the rip guide.
The rip guide helps prevent the blade from twisting in a
cut. The blade twisting in a cut can cause kickback.
TO ASSEMBLE RIP GUIDE
■ Remove battery pack from saw.
WARNING: Failure to remove battery pack from
saw could result in accidental starting causing
possible serious personal injury.
■ Place rip guide through holes in saw base as shown in
figure 22.
■ Adjust rip guide to the width needed.
■ Tighten rip guide screw (wing screw) securely.
When using a rip guide, position the face of the rip guide
firmly against the edge of workpiece. This makes for a
true cut without pinching the blade. The guiding edge of
workpiece must be straight for your cut to be straight. Use
caution to prevent the blade from binding in the cut.
