STARTING/STOPPING THE SAW
See Figure 11.
To start the saw: Depress the switch trigger.
Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw
into the workpiece.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the workpiece before
it reaches full speed could cause the saw to “kickback”
towards you resulting in serious injury.
To stop the saw: Release the switch trigger.
After you release the switch trigger, allow the blade to
come to a complete stop. DO NOT remove the saw from
the workpiece while the blade is moving.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug the tool could result in accidental start-
ing causing serious injury.
ADJUSTING BLADE DEPTH
See Figure 12.
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct blade
depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 in. below
the material being cut. More blade depth will increase the
chance of kickback and cause the cut to be rough. For more
depth of cut accuracy, a scale is located on the upper blade
guard.
To adjust the blade depth:
n Unplug the saw.
n Loosen depth adjustment knob.
n Determine the desired depth of cut.
n Locate depth of cut scale on back of upper blade
guard.
n Hold base flat against the workpiece and raise or lower
saw until the indicator mark on bracket aligns with notch
on blade guard.
n Tighten depth adjustment knob securely.
