Maintaining maximum cutting capacity
Unplug the tool before any adjustment
is
attempted.
This tool
is
factory adjusted to provide
the max. cutting capacity for
a
255 mm
(IO”)
saw blade. When the diameter of the
blade has been reduced due to sharpening,
loosen the hex nut
at
the rear of the gear
housing. Use
a
screwdriver to adjust the
depth adjusting bolt. The saw blade
is
lowered
by
turning the depth adjusting
bolt counterclockwise and raised by turn-
ing
it
clockwise. Adjust
so
that when the
handle is in the fully lowered position,
there will be
a
distance
of
about
122
mm
(4-3/4”)
from the front face of the guide
fence to the point where the front edge
of
the blade enters the kerf. Now tighten the
hex
nut with the wrench while carefully
holding the adjusting bolt in position with
the screwdriver.
Positioning
for
miter angle
Loosen the grip
by
turning counterclock-
wise.
Press
down the latch spring. This
allows the turn base to turn freely. When
you
have moved the grip to the position
where the pointer indicates the desired
angle on the miter scale, release the latch
spring and securely tighten the grip clock-
wise.
NOTE
:
GI
in
The latch spring automatically locates miter angles of
0,
15,
22.5,
30
and
45
degrees. To
select
one of these angles, turn the turn base near the desired angle while releasing the
latch spring and allow the latch spring to
seat
itself in the miter notch. Then tighten the
grip securely.
