ASSEMBLING TRACKS
See Figures 6 - 7, page 19.
Tracks can be used individually or assembled together to
fit the size of your project. Before use, all tracks should be
assembled and properly aligned, and the rubber cut strip
should be cut.
To assemble tracks:
 Place the tracks upside down on a flat, level work space.
NOTE: Two tracks are provided with the saw. One has a
connector preinstalled and the other does not.
 Using the track wrench, loosen the screws securing the
connector to the track.
NOTE: Two wrenches are included with the saw, a small
one for the track and a large one for the blade.
 Align the tracks and slide the connector across the joint
and into the slot of the next track. Place the connector
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with products to make you care-
less. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Always remove battery pack from the tool when you are
assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when
not in use. Removing battery pack will prevent accidental
starting that could cause serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes and other possible
serious injuries.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom-
mended by the manufacturer of this product. The use of
attachments or accessories not recommended can result
in serious personal injury.
ASSEMBLY
approximately half way into each track and tighten the
screws to secure one side.
NOTE: The tracks are machined to fit together tightly
along the ends. However, before tightening the remaining
screws, place a 12 in. or longer straight edge, carpenter's
square or level along the long edges to make sure the
pieces are perfectly aligned. Skipping this step could
compromise the accuracy of the saw's performance.
 Align the long ends of both tracks against the straight
edge, carpenter's square or level. Holding both pieces
together, tighten the remaining screws to secure the con-
nector.
NOTE: After tightening the screws, check again with the
straight edge to ensure the tracks are perfectly aligned.
Each track has a rubber cut strip running along the edge.
Before cutting a workpiece using the track, the rubber
cut strip must be trimmed away. Refer to "Using the
Track" in the Operations section.
