REMOVING THE BLADE (FIGURE L)
• Keep the spindle lock button (4)
depressed and rotate the blade until the
spindle lock engages.
• Loosen and remove the blade retaining
screw (15) by turning it counterclockwise
using the wrench (9) supplied.
• Remove the outer washer (16).
• Remove the saw blade (6).
NOTE: Do not remove the inner washer (17)
in figure M.
ATTACHING THE BLADE (FIGURE M)
• Using the lower blade guard retracting
lever, retract the lower blade guard.
• Place the saw blade (6), on the spindle
shaft, making sure that the arrow on the
blade points in the same direction as the
arrow on the tool. Release lower guard lever.
• Fit the outer washer (16) on the spindle,
with the larger flat surface against the blade.
• Insert the blade retaining screw (15) into
the hole.
• Keep the spindle lock button (4)
depressed.
• Securely tighten the blade retaining
screw (15) by turning it clockwise using the
wrench (9) supplied.
NOTE: The inner flange (17), should
not be removed. If it is removed, replace it as shown in figure M.
LOWER BLADE GUARD
WARNING:
The lower blade guard is a safety feature which reduces the risk of
serious personal injury. Never use the saw if the lower guard is missing, damaged,
misassembled or not working properly. Do not rely on the lower blade guard to protect
you under all circumstances. Your safety depends on following all warnings and
precautions as well as proper operation of the saw. Check lower guard for proper closing
before each use as outlined in Additional Specific Safety Rules. If the lower blade guard
is missing or not working properly, have the saw serviced before using. To assure
product safety and reliability, repair, maintenance and adjustment should be performed
by an authorized service center or other qualified service organization, always using
identical replacement parts.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, read, understand and
follow all important safety warnings and instructions prior to using tool.
GENERAL CUTS (IMPORTANT: READ SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS. )
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
With unit unplugged, follow all assembly, adjustment and set up instructions.
Make sure lower guard operates. Select the proper blade for the material to be cut.
• Measure and mark work for cutting.
• Support and secure work properly (See Safety Rules and Instructions).
• Use appropriate and required safety equipment (See Safety Rules).
• Secure and maintain work area (See Safety Rules).
• With plug inserted and guard closed, make sure switch turns saw on and off.
WARNING:
It is important to support the work properly and to hold the saw firmly to
prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. Figure E illustrates
recommended hand position.

ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE RIP FENCE (FIGURE N)
A rip fence is used to saw in a straight line parallel
to the edge of the workpiece.
ATTACHING
• Insert the rip fence (18) through the openings in
the shoe (5).
• Slide the rip fence into the desired position.
• Screw in locking knob (19) and tighten.
REMOVING
• Loosen the locking knob (19).
• Pull the rip fence out of the tool.
NOTE: If you do not have a proper fitting fence, use
a straight edge guide in contact with the edge of the
shoe to improve accuracy of cut and reduce the
possibility of binding and kickback.
OPERATION
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from
power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or
accessories.
WARNING:
IMPORTANT: Always make sure the depth adjustment locking lever is
in the down position before operating saw.
SWITCH
• To operate the tool, depress the trigger switch (1) in figure A. The tool will continue to
run as long as the trigger is depressed.
• To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch (1). There is no provision for locking the
tool on, and the switch should never be locked on by any other means.
SAWING
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury, always hold saw firmly with both
hands on the handles.
WARNING:
Never attempt to use this tool by resting it upside down on a work
surface and bringing the material to the tool. Always securely clamp the workpiece and
bring the tool to the workpiece, securely holding the tool with two hands as shown in
figure E.
• Place the wider portion of the saw foot plate on that part of the work piece which is
solidly supported, not on the section that will fall off when the cut is made. As
examples, Figure E illustrates the RIGHT way to cut off the end of a board.
• Always clamp work. Donʼt try to hold short pieces by hand!
• Remember to support cantilevered and overhanging material.
• Use caution when sawing material from below.
• Be sure saw is up to full speed before blade contacts material to be cut. Starting saw
with blade against material to be cut or pushed forward into kerf can result in
kickback.
• Push the saw forward at a speed which allows the blade to cut without laboring.
Hardness and toughness can vary even in the same piece of material, and knotty or
damp sections can put a heavy load on the saw. When this happens, push the saw
more slowly, but hard enough to keep working without much decrease in speed.
• Forcing the saw can cause rough cuts, inaccuracy, kickback, and over-heating of the
motor. Should your cut begin to go off the line, donʼt try to force it back on. Release
the switch and allow blade to come to a complete stop. Then you can withdraw the
saw, sight anew, and start a new cut slightly inside the wrong one. In any event,
withdraw the saw if you must shift the cut. Forcing a correction inside the cut can stall
the saw and lead to kickback.
• IF SAW STALLS, RELEASE THE TRIGGER AND BACK THE SAW UNTIL IT IS
LOOSE. BE SURE BLADE IS STRAIGHT IN THE CUT AND CLEAR OF THE
CUTTING EDGE BEFORE RESTARTING.
