Kerf board
This tool is provided with the kerf board in the turn base to
minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. If the kerf groove
has not yet been cut in the kerf board by the factory, you
should cut the groove before actually using the tool to cut a
workpiece. Switch on the tool and lower the blade gently to
cut a groove in the kerf board.
Maintaining maximum cutting capacity
This tool is factory adjusted to provide the maximum cutting
capacity for a 255 mm (10”) saw blade.
When installing a new blade, always check the lower limit
position of the blade and if necessary, adjust it as follows:
First, unplug the tool. Lower the handle completely. Use the
socket wrench to turn the adjusting bolt until the periphery of
the blade extends slightly below the top surface of the turn
base at the point where the front face of the guide fence
meets the top surface of the turn base.
With the tool unplugged, rotate the blade by hand while hold-
ing the handle all the way down to be sure that the blade
does not contact any part of the lower base. Re-adjust
slightly, if necessary.
CAUTION:
• After installing a new blade, always be sure that the
blade does not contact any part of the lower base when
the handle is lowered completely. Always do this with the
tool unplugged.
Adjusting the miter angle
Loosen the grip by turning counterclockwise. Turn the turn
base while pressing down the lock lever. When you have
moved the grip to the position where the pointer points to the
desired angle on the miter scale, securely tighten the grip
clockwise.
CAUTION:
• When turning the turn base, be sure to raise the handle
fully.
