FOOTPLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
The footplate may be tilted to allow angle cuts
up to 45˚ in either direction. To adjust
footplate, loosen screw with allen wrench, slide
the footplate towards the front of the tool, and
rotate to the desired angle, as marked on the
angle scale. Detent slots will hold the footplate
firmly at 45˚, and there are additional position
marks for 15˚ and 30˚ angles. Intermediate
angles may be set with a protractor. After
positioning the footplate, securely tighten
screw).
ANTI-SPLINTER INSERT
To minimize splintering of the top surface of
the material being cut, place the anti-splinter
insert in the blade opening of the footplate.
Note: This insert will only work with blades
that have ground sides such as T301CD,
T101B, T101D, and T101DP.
