ADJUSTING THE SHOE PARALLEL TO THE BLADE
(Your saw is adjusted at the factory so that the blade and shoe are
parallel. If these parts become misaligned, adjust as follows.)
1.
Disconnect plug from power supply.
2.
Loosen the (2) screws at the adjusting bracket at the rear of
the shoe, as shown in Figure 12.
3.
Adjust the shoe until it is parallel to the blade by measuring
from the edge of the shoe to the blade, front & rear. You can
measure from the outside edge of the blade to the shoe as
shown in Figure 12 or from the inner edge of the blade to the
wider part of the shoe. (Do not measure from the tips of any
saw blade teeth.)
4.
When shoe is parallel, tighten all screws.
ADJUSTING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT LEVER
It may be desirable to adjust the Depth Adjustment. (It will
sometimes hit the shoe before tightening or loosening completely.)
To adjust lever, follow the steps below.
1. Disconnect plug from power supply.
2. Using a small screwdriver, pry the lock ring off, as shown in
Figure 13.
3. Remove the lever and rotate it in the desired direction about 1/8
revolution. (More or less as necessary.)
4. Reinstall the lever and insert the lock ring with concave side
against lever to hold it in place. (Figure 14)
