ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
To prevent accidental starting that could cause possible
serious personal injury, turn off the saw and unplug the
saw from the power source before making any
adjustments.
DROP FOOT
See Figure 6.
To prevent workpiece from lifting, the drop foot should be
adjusted so it just rests on the top of the workpiece. The drop
foot should not be adjusted so that the workpiece drags.
Always retighten the drop foot lock knob after each adjust-
ment has been made.
■ Loosen the drop foot lock knob.
■ Lower or raise the drop foot to the desired position.
■ Retighten the drop foot lock knob.
The tall, front part of the drop foot acts as a blade guard to
prevent accidental contact with the blade.
SAWDUST BLOWER

WARNING:
Failure to turn the saw off, remove the switch key, and
unplug the saw from the power source could result in
accidental starting causing possible serious injury.
The sawdust blower is designed and preset to direct air to the
most effective point on the cutting line. Be sure drop foot is
properly adjusted to secure workpiece and direct air to the
cutting surface.
■ Plastic tubing should be connected to the bellows tube
before starting the saw.
