2. Adjusting the angle of inclination
As shown in Fig.8 by loosening the wing-bolt
on the inclined gauge, the saw blade nnay be
inclined to a maxinnum angle of 45 in relation
to the base. Always insure that the wing-bolt
is thoroughly tightened after making the desir¬
ed adjustment.
3. Regularing the guide (Rip fence)
. Optional Accessory
The cutting position can be regulated by
moving the guide to the left or right after
loosening its wing-bolt. The guide may be
mounted on either the right or left side of the
too). (See Fig.9)

CUTTIIMG PROCEDURES
CAUTION
Recheck that the saw blade is securely
clamped.
Confirm that the clamp lever for adjusting the
slot depth, the wing-bolt for adjusting the
angle of inclination.
j Grip the saw as shown in Fig.2 and be sure
the cord is free to move through the entire cut
without jamming or getting in the path of the
saw blade.
1 . Place the saw body {base} on the lumber, and
as in Fig. 10 align the intended line of cut with
the saw blade, using the notch at the front of
the base. This relationship of base to lumber
should remain unchanged regardless of the
inclination of the base.
2. The switch should be turned to the ON posi¬
tion before the saw blade comes into contact
with the lumber. The switch is turned ON
when the trigger is pulled by one's finger, and
is turned OFF when the trigger is released.
3. Moving the saw straight at a constant speed
will produce optimum cutting.
CAUTIONS
Before starting to saw, ensure that the saw
blade has reached full speed revolution.
(' Should the saw blade stop or make an abnor¬
mal noise during operation, turn off the switch
immediately.
During operation, do not cover the slots in the
tail to prevent motor burn.
Always take care in preventing the power cord
from coming near the revoluving saw blade.
When finished with a job, pull out the plug
from the power receptacle.
