UNPACKING AND CONTENTS
IMPORTANT: Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely the tool 
is faulty or that a part is missing.  If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool 
until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could 
result in serious personal injury.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS 
 WARNING: Always be sure that the tool is 
switched off and unplugged before adjusting, adding 
accessories, or checking a function on the tool.
 WARNING:  3-1/2”  is  the  maximum  blade 
diameter for your saw. Never use a blade that is too 
thick to allow the outer flange washer to fit properly 
on the  spindle.  Using  a  blade  that  is  too thick  will 
prevent the  blade  bolt  from  securing  the  blade  on 
the  spindle.  Larger  diameter  blades  will  contact 
the blade  guards. Either  situation  could result in a 
serious accident.
CHANGING BLADES (FIG 2, 3, 4)
1. Unplug the tool from the power source.
2. Press and hold the spindle lock (14), release the clamping screw 
(12) by using the Allen key provided (turn clockwise to loosen). 
Remove the clamping screw, and outer flange (31).
3.  Set the cutting depth to the maximum. (See “Setting the Cutting 
Depth” section)
4. Press down the lock-off / plunge release button (1) to lift up the 
base plate.
5. Lift blade up off spindle then pull from the tool to remove blade.
6. The installation of a saw blade is done in the reverse order.
7. Press the spindle lock button (until it engages) and tighten the 
clamping screw firmly.
NOTE:  The  arrow  on  the  saw  blade  must  match  the  arrow 
showing direction of rotation on the guard.
SETTING CUTTING DEPTH (FIG 5)
NOTE: Always maintain the correct blade depth setting. For all 
cuts the  blade  depth  should  not  exceed  1⁄4” below  the  material 
being  cut.  Excessive  blade  depth  increases  the  chance  of  saw 
KICKBACK.
To Set the Cutting Depth
1.  Release the cutting depth clamp (8). 
2. Move indicator to the desired cutting depth.
3. Lock the cutting depth clamp to secure depth of cut.
