USE
Changing saw blade 3
●
- open lower guard A by using lever B
- change saw blade with saw teeth and arrow printed
on saw blade pointing in same direction as arrow on
lower guard A
! make sure that clamping surfaces C of flanges are
perfectly clean and face the blade
- tighten blade bolt D with hex key 1/8 turn past finger
tight (ensures slippage of saw blade when it
encounters excessive resistance thus reducing motor
overload and saw kickback)
Adjusting cutting depth (0-50 mm) 4
●
- for an optimal quality cut the saw blade should not
extend more than 3 mm below the workpiece
- loosen lever E
- raise/lower foot F until desired cutting depth is set on
scale using indicator G
- tighten lever E
Readjusting clamping lever
●
Clamping power of lever E can be readjusted
- unscrew lever E and set it at at least 30° counter-
clockwise
- screw tight lever E again
Adjusting cutting angle (0-45°) 5
●
- loosen 2 knobs H
- tilt tool until desired cutting angle is set on scale using
indicator J
- tighten 2 knobs H
! when bevel cutting, cutting depth does not
correspond with value on cutting depth scale
90° Cutting angle check 5
●
- adjust and tighten foot F to maximum cutting depth 4
- adjust and tighten cutting angle to 0°
- check for 90° angle between the blade and bottom of
foot with a square
Adjustable saw line visor K 6a
●
- for guiding tool along desired line of cut marked on the
workpiece
- for a straight 0° cut or a 45° bevel cut use the indicator
line concerned
! the wide part of the foot should rest on the
supported part of the workpiece
- can be adjusted to allow you to choose whether waste
material is on inner or outer side of blade 6a+b
! cutting width is determined by width of blade
teeth and not by width of blade body
! always make trial cuts first to verify actual line of
cut
Dust suction
●
- connect vacuum cleaner to extension L 2
! never let the vacuum cleaner hose interfere with
the lower guard or the cutting operation
- one may also use a dust bag (SKIL accessory
2610387402)
Operating the tool 2
●
- connect plug with power source
- always hold handle M firmly with one hand and
handle N firmly with the other hand
- place tool with front end of foot flat on workpiece
! ensure that the saw teeth are not engaged into the
workpiece
- switch on tool by first pressing knob P (= safety switch
which cannot be locked) and then pulling trigger Q
! the tool should run at full speed before the blade
enters into the workpiece
