Maintaining maximum cutting
capacity
This tool is factory adjusted to provide the maximum
cutting capacity for a 255 mm (10") saw blade.
When installing a new blade, always check the lower
limit position of the blade and if necessary, adjust it as
follows:
First, remove the batteries. Turn the stopper lever to
engaged position.
► 1. Stopper lever
Push the carriage toward the guide fence fully and
lower the handle completely.
Adjust the blade position by turning the adjusting bolt
with the hex wrench. The periphery of the blade should
extend slightly below the top surface of the turn base
and also comes to the point where the front face of the
guide fence meets the top surface of the turn base.

With the batteries removed, 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.
After adjustment, always return the stopper lever to the
original position.
WARNING:
with the batteries removed, always be sure that
the blade does not contact any part of the lower
base when the handle is lowered completely. If
a blade makes contact with the base it may cause
kickback and result in serious personal injury.
Stopper arm
The lower limit position of the blade can be easily
adjusted with the stopper arm. To adjust it, turn the
stopper arm in the direction of the arrow as shown in the
figure. Turn the adjusting screw so that the blade stops
at the desired position when lowering the handle fully.
