OPERATION
WARNING:
Always cut in a forward direction when pocket cut-
ting. Cutting in the reverse direction could cause
the saw to climb up on the workpiece and back
toward you.
 Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
 Lift the saw from the workpiece.
 Clear corners out with a hand saw or sabre saw.
WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply and the
switch is in the OFF position. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
POSITIVE 0° BEVEL STOP
See Figures 20 - 21, page 19.
The saw has a positive 0° bevel stop that has been factory
adjusted to assure 0° angle of the saw blade when making 90°
cuts. However, misalignment can occur during shipping.
To check positive 0° bevel stop:
 Unplug the saw.
 Place the saw in an upside down position on a
workbench.
NOTE: This position is for making adjustments only. Never
operate the saw in this position.
 Move the lower blade guard out of the way so that the
saw blade is exposed.
 Check the squareness of the saw blade to the base of
the saw using a combination square.
To adjust positive 0° bevel stop:
 Unplug the saw.
 Pull bevel adjustment lever upward to release.
 Turn Torx T-8 adjustment screw with Torx T-8 wrench and
adjust base until it is square with the saw blade.
 Securely lock the bevel adjustment lever.

Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel
adjustment lever securely locked in place can
result in serious injury.
