OPERATIONS, CONT’D
Like all power tools, there is danger
associated with the Model G9906.
Accidents are frequently caused by
lack of familiarity or failure to pay
attention. Use this tool with respect
and caution to lessen the possibility of
operator injury. If normal safety pre-
cautions are overlooked or ignored,
serious personal injury may occur.
Avoid kickback hazards! If saw motor
stalls during cut release the trigger
immediately. Determine the cause of
the problem and rectify before contin-
uing cut.
Guide Notches
Setting the Blade Angle
Operating the Saw
The saw is provided with two guide notch-
es for either 45° or 90° cuts. These are
located on the leading edge of the saw
base. The notches are used for following a
line through a cut. It should be noted that
these are provided for one blade thickness.
Blades without carbide teeth or with car-
bide teeth that are thinner or thicker may
render the guide notches inaccurate.
1. Loosen the black angle locking
knobs located at the leading and
trailing edge of the saw base.
2. Rotate the saw base until the index
pointer is at the desired angle and
tighten knobs.
3. For best results always check the
blade angle with a protractor or angle
guide before making a cut. Make a
test cut into scrap lumber and check
the angle of the cut. Readjust as nec-
essary.
1. Ensure the blade is secure.
2. Grasp the hand grip with one hand.
Use the hand you would use most
often: if you are right handed use the
right.
3. Grasp the stabilizing hand grip with
the other hand.
4. Place the leading edge of the saw on
the edge of the board to be cut. Align
the guide notch to a reference line or
the edge guide to the end of the
board.
5. Ensure the blade will not contact the
board during start up by pulling saw
away from the edge of the board.
6. Pull the trigger to activate the saw.
7. Slowly feed saw through the cut.
8. Let go of the trigger when finished
with the cut.
