OPERATION
Turn screw and adjust base until square with saw
blade.
Tighten hex nut and bevel adjustment knob securely.
WARNING: Attempting to make cuts without bevel
adjustment knob securely tightened can result in
serious injury.
TO POCKET CUT
See Figure 27.
WARNING: Always adjust bevel setting to zero before
making a pocket cut. Attempting a pocket cut at any
other setting can result in loss of control of your saw
possibly causing serious injury.
Adjust the bevel setting to zero, set blade to correct blade
depth setting, and swing the lower blade guard up using
the lower blade guard handle.
Always raise the lower blade guard with the handle to
avoid serious injury.
While holding lower blade guard by the handle, firmly rest
the front of the base flat against the workpiece with the
rear of the handle raised so the blade does not touch the
workpiece.
See Figure 27.

factory adjusted to assure 0° angle of your saw blade
when making 90° cuts. However, misalignment can occur
during shipping.
TO CHECK
Remove battery pack from saw.
WARNING: Failure to remove battery pack from
saw could result in accidental starting causing
possible serious personal injury.
Place your saw in an upside down position on
workbench.
See Figure 26.
Using a carpenter's square, check squareness of saw
blade to the base of your saw.
TO ADJUST
Remove battery pack from saw.
WARNING: Failure to remove battery pack from
saw could result in accidental starting causing
possible serious personal injury.
Loosen bevel adjustment knob.
Loosen hex nut securing adjustment screw.
Depress the lock-off button and squeeze the switch
trigger to start your saw. Always let the blade reach
full speed then slowly lower blade into the
workpiece until base is flat against workpiece.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow
the blade to come to a complete stop. After the blade
has stopped, remove it from the workpiece. Corners
may then be cleared out with a hand saw or sabre saw.
WARNING: Never tie the lower blade guard in a
raised position. Leaving the blade exposed could
lead to serious injury.
