Adjusting Depth

1. Remove battery pack.

2. To adjust the depth of the cut, hold

the saw by the handle and loosen the

depth adjusting lever by pushing it down

toward the shoe (Fig. 5).

4. Lift the depth adjusting lever up

towards the motor housing to

secure the shoe position.

3. Raise or lower the shoe to the desired

position. Markings in 1/4" increments

are located on the inner side of the

upper guard for depth setting. For the

proper depth setting, the blade should

extend no more than 1/8" to 1/4" below

the material being cut (Fig. 6).

3. Hold the front of the shoe and rotate the

saw by the handle to the desired angle

as indicated by the markings on the

bevel scale (Fig. 8).

Adjusting Bevel Angle

1. Remove battery pack.

2. To adjust the angle of the cut, hold the

saw by the handle and loosen the bevel

adjusting knob (Fig. 7).

4. Tighten the bevel adjusting knob securely.

Adjusting the Blade to Shoe

The shoe has been adjusted at the factory

to a 90 degree setting. Inspect the saw regu-

larly to make sure the blade is 90 degrees

to the shoe.

1. Remove battery pack.

2. Set the bevel pointer to zero (Fig. 9).

WARNING

OPERATION

To reduce the risk of injury, keep hands

away from the blade and other moving

parts. Always wear safety goggles or

glasses with side shields. Use only

speciﬁ cally recommended accesso-

ries. Others may be hazardous.

Causes and Operator Prevention of

KICKBACK:

KICKBACK is a sudden reaction to a pinched,

bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an

uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the

workpiece toward the operator.

When the blade is pinched or bound tightly

by the kerf, or cutting slot, closing down, the

blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the

unit rapidly back toward the operator.

If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned

in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the

blade can dig into the top surface of the wood

causing the blade to climb out of the kerf and

jump back toward operator.

KICKBACK is the result of tool misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions

and can be avoided by taking proper precau-

tions as given below:

1. Maintain a ﬁ rm grip with both hands

on the saw and position your body

and arm to allow you to resist KICK-

BACK forces. KICKBACK forces can

be controlled by the operator, if proper

precautions are taken.

2. When blade is binding, or when inter-

rupting a cut for any reason, release

the trigger and hold the saw motion-

less in the material until the blade

comes to a complete stop. Never

attempt to remove the saw from the

work or pull the saw backward while

the blade is in motion or KICKBACK

may occur. Investigate and take cor-

rective actions to eliminate the cause of

blade binding.

3. When restarting a saw in the work-

piece, center the saw blade in the

kerf, or cut, and check that saw teeth

are not engaged into the material. If

saw blade is binding, it may walk up or

KICKBACK from the workpiece as the

saw is restarted.

4. Support large panels to minimize the

risk of blade pinching and KICKBACK.

Large panels tend to sag under their own

weight. Supports must be placed under

the panel on both sides, near the line of

cut and near the edge of the panel.

5. Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades

produce narrow kerf causing excessive

friction, blade binding and KICKBACK.

6. Blade depth and bevel adjusting lock-

ing levers must be tight and secure

before making cut. If blade adjustment

shifts while cutting, it may cause binding

and KICKBACK.

7. Use extra caution when making a

“Pocket Cut” into existing walls or

other blind areas. The protruding blade

may cut objects that can cause KICK-

BACK.

8. Set the depth of cut for no more than

1/8" to 1/4" greater than the thickness

of the stock. The less blade exposed,

the less chance of binding and KICK-

BACK. Before cutting, be sure depth and

bevel adjustments are tight.

9. Be cautious of pitchy, knotty, wet or

warped stock. These are most likely to

create pinching conditions and possible

KICKBACK. Do not rip warped lumber.

Avoid cutting nails.

10. Use a rip fence or edge guide when

ripping. Guides improve control and

reduce blade binding.

11. Stay alert. Any distraction can cause

twisting or binding. Repetitive cuts may

lull the user into careless movements.

3. To make sure the blade is 90 degrees to

the shoe, place saw on the blade side

and retract lower guard. Place a square

against the blade and shoe to inspect

the degree setting (Fig. 10).

4. To adjust the degree setting, loosen the

bevel adjusting knob. Turn the bevel

adjustment screw in or out until the blade

is at a 90 degree angle with the shoe.

5. Tighten the bevel adjusting knob se-

curely.
