Depth Adjustment
Adjust the cutting depth
so that no more than
one tooth is visible below the work piece.
Excessive blade exposure below the
workpiece could result in personal injury
and/or property damage.
The depth adjustment
system should be not
used to change the depth while the saw is
in operation, or for plunge cutting. If
blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it
may cause binding and kickback.
To adjust the cutting depth follow these
instructions (Fig. 4):
A. Disconnect battery pack 17 from tool.
B. Loosen the depth adjustment lever 6
located on the left side of the tool.
C. Hold the foot 13 down with one hand
and raise or lower saw by the handle 3.
- For a smaller cutting depth, pull the
saw away from the foot 13;
- for a deeper cutting depth, push the
saw toward the foot 13. The cutting
depth scale 15 has both inch and
metric scales.
D. Tighten the depth adjustment lever at
the desired depth setting.
Note: Not more than one tooth length of
the blade should extend below the material
to be cut, for minimum splintering (Fig. 5).
90° Cutting Angle Check
A. Disconnect battery pack 17 from tool.
B. Set foot to maximum depth of cut
setting.
C. Loosen adjustment lever 5, set to 0° on
bevel scale 7, retighten lever 5 (Fig. 5).
D. Check for 90° angle between the blade
and bottom plane of foot 13 with a
square (Fig. 6). If necessary, make
adjustments by turning the small
alignment screw 27 from bottom side of
foot 13 with a 2.5 mm allen wrench [not
included] (Fig. 6).
