This tool is provided with the kerf boards in the turn base
to minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. The kerf
boards are factory adjusted so that the saw blade does
not contact the kerf boards. Before use, adjust the kerf
boards as follows:
First, unplug the tool. Loosen all the screws (2 each on
left and right) securing the kerf boards. Re-tighten them
only to the extent that the kerf boards can still be easily
moved by hand. Lower the handle fully and push in the
stopper pin to lock the handle in the lowered position.
Loosen the knob which secures the slide poles. Pull the
carriage toward you fully. Adjust the kerf boards so that
the kerf boards just contact the sides of the blade teeth.
Tighten the front screws (do not tighten firmly). Push the
carriage toward the guide fence fully and adjust the kerf
boards so that the kerf boards just contact the sides of
blade teeth. Tighten the rear screws (do not tighten
firmly).
After adjusting the kerf boards, release the stopper pin
and raise the handle. Then tighten all the screws
securely.
CAUTION:
Before and after changing the bevel angle, always
•
adjust the kerf boards as described above.

First, unplug the tool. Push the carriage toward the guide
fence fully and 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
holding 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.
