RAISING AND LOWERING THE

For most applications, it is recommended that you raise the blade
1/8 inch (3.2mm) to 1/4 inch (6.4mm) above the top surface of the
workpiece.
Raise or lower the blade with the hand wheel
on the front of the saw. See Figure 34.

To lower the saw blade, turn the hand wheel counter-

Tighten lock knob to KEEP blade at the desired height.
ONLY a small amount of force is required to lock the blade

maintenance, adjustments or repairs, lower blade below
surface of table (If applicable).

hand wheel clockwise. A pointer on the front of the saw
indicates the angle of tilt in 1/2 degree increments.
2.
To lock the saw blade at your desired angle, tighten the
lock knob by rotating it clockwise. ONLY a small amount
of force is required to lock the blade raising mechanism
securely. Any added force merely puts unnecessary strain
on the locking device.
