OPERATION
DANGER:
Using a saw with a damaged cord could result
in serious injury or death. If the cord has been
damaged, have it replaced before using the saw
again.
CROSS CUTTING/RIP CUTTING
See Figures 15 - 17, pages 18 and 19.
When making a cross cut or rip cut, align the guideline with
the full length kerf indicator on the base as shown in the
figure. The distance from the saw blade to the saw base is
approximately 5 in. on the left side of the saw and 1 in. on
the right side.
Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut in
scrap material along a guideline to determine how much
the guideline must be offset from the guide to produce an
accurate cut.
NOTE: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline is
the amount you should offset the guide.
TO RIP CUT
See Figures 16 - 17, page 19.
Use a guide when making long or wide rip cuts with the
saw.
To rip cut using optional edge guide:
 Slide edge guide into the slot.
 Align the guideline with the full length kerf indicator on
the base.
 Adjust the guide so that the "0" on the guide is aligned
with the edge of the workpiece.
 Secure the guide with the lock knob provided with the
saw.
 Secure the workpiece.
 Position the face of the edge guide firmly against the edge
of workpiece.
NOTE: The guiding edge of the workpiece must be
straight for your cut to be straight. Use caution to prevent
the blade from binding in the cut.
 Saw along workpiece keeping guide firmly against edge
to achieve a straight rip cut.
To rip cut using a straight edge:
 Secure the workpiece.
 Clamp a straight edge to the workpiece using
C-clamps.
NOTE: Position C-clamps so they will not interfere with
the saw housing during the cut.
 Saw along the straight edge to achieve a straight rip
cut.
NOTE: Do not bind the blade in the cut.

BEVEL CUTTING

See Figures 18 - 20, page 19.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints.
 Align the line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on
the base when making 45
 Make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to
determine how much you should offset the guideline on
the cutting material.
 Adjust the angle of cut to any desired setting between zero
°
and 50
. Positive stops are located at 0
Refer to To Adjust Bevel Setting later in this manual.
NOTE: Push the positive 50° stop button in while raising
the motor housing to set the bevel setting above 45° and
up to 50°.
TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING
See Figures 18 - 19, page 19.
 Unplug the saw.
 Pull the bevel adjustment lever upward until the motor
housing moves freely.
 Raise motor housing end of saw until you reach the
desired angle setting on bevel scale.
NOTE: Positive stops are located at 0
Push the positive 50° stop button in while raising the
motor housing to set the bevel setting above 45° and up
to 50°.
 Push downward on the bevel adjustment lever until the
motor housing is securely locked in place.
INDEXING LEVERS
See Figure 19, page 19.
The levers on the saw can be repositioned for the best
tightening position.
 Pull the lever out from the saw and move to desired
position.
 Push lever back in and down to lock into place.
 Check to be sure the base is clamped securely.
WARNING:
Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel
adjustment lever securely locked in place can
result in serious injury.
TO BEVEL CUT
See Figure 20, page 19.
 Hold the saw firmly with both hands as shown.
 Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece.
 Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed.
 Guide the saw into the workpiece and make the cut.
 Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
 Lift the saw from the workpiece.
