25. About remaining battery indicator (Fig. 35)
◌ You can check the battery's remaining capacity by
pressing the remaining battery indicator switch (74)
to light the indicator lamp. (Fig. 35, Table 1)
◌ The indicator will shut off approximately 3 seconds after
the remaining battery indicator switch (74) is pressed.
It is best to use the remaining battery indicator lamp
(75) as a guide since there are slight differences such
as ambient temperature and the condition of the battery.
◌ Also, the remaining battery indicator may vary from those
equipped to a tool or charger.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING
Before performing any adjustment, remove the battery
pack and turn the switch off. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING
Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after
making any adjustment which requires it to be removed.
Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious
personal injury.
The table saw has been adjusted at the factory for making
very accurate cuts. However, some components might
have been jarred out of alignment during shipping. Also,
over a period of time, readjustment will probably become
necessary due to wear.
Carefully check alignment with a framing square before
beginning adjustments to confirm whether they are
necessary. Use test cuts after completing adjustments
to avoid damaging workpiece.
1. Aligning rip fence to blade (Fig. 36)
Rip fence and blade alignment is set at factory and in
most cases will not need to be adjusted. However, the
alignment should always be checked after installing blade
or before making cuts, and can be adjusted if necessary.
If rip fence is out of alignment with blade, adjustment is
needed.
WARNING
Rip fence must be aligned to blade so that wood does
not bind, resulting in kickback. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury.
DO NOT loosen any position screws for this adjustment
until alignment has been checked with a square to be sure
adjustment are necessary. Once screws are loosened,
items must be reset.
WARNING
Turn off the saw and remove the battery pack. Remove
blade guard and anti-kickback pawls. Raise the blade by
turning height adjusting knob.
To check/adjust
◌ Place the framing square (76) beside the blade (24),
and unlock the fence rails lock lever (34) to move the rip
fence (4) up to the square.
◌ Lock the fence rails lock lever (34) and note the
measurement on the rip scale.
◌ Move the fence back and rotate the framing square
(76) 180° to check the other side.
◌ If the two measurements are not the same, loosen the
position screws (61) on the extension poles and then
align it.
◌ Retighten the position screws with 5 mm hex key.
Recheck alignment after position screws are retightened.
◌ Reinstall the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.
◌ Make two or three test cuts using scrap wood. If the cuts
are not true, repeat the process.
WARNING
The adjustment must be correct. If it is not, kickback could
result in a serious injury and inability to make accurate
cuts.
WARNING
Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after
making any adjustment which requires it to be removed.
Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious
personal injury.
2. Bevel adjustment (Fig. 37a-37b)
This saw has positive stops that will quickly position the
saw blade at 90° (0°) or 45° to the table. Angle settings
of saw have been set at the factory and, unless damaged
in shipping, should not require setting during assembly.
After extensive use, they may need to be checked.
To check 90° (0°) bevel
◌ Turn off the saw and remove the battery pack.
◌ Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the
height adjusting knob clockwise.
◌ Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.
◌ Using a framing square (76), set the blade (24) to
exactly 90°.
◌ If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 90°, loosen
the 90° stop set screw (77) (located at the left of the
bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 90°.
◌ With the blade set at 90°, slowly turn the 90° stop set
screw (77) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade
away from 90° a little, and then back to the stop.
◌ Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment
as necessary until the blade stops at 90°.
To check 45° bevel
◌ Turn off the saw and remove the battery pack.
◌ Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the
height adjusting knob clockwise.
◌ Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.
◌ Using a triangle square (78), set the blade (24) to
exactly 45°.
◌ If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 45°, loosen
the 45° stop set screw (79) (located at the right of the
bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 45°.
◌ With the blade set at 45°, slowly turn the 45° stop set
screw (79) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade
away from 45° a little, and then back to the stop.
◌ Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment
as necessary until the blade stops at 45°.
CAUTION
For easy of use, bevel adjust should stop at 45° and 90°.
WARNING
Make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are
reinstalled immediately after making any adjustment which
requires it to be removed. Failure to heed this instruction
could result in serious personal injury.
3. Adjusting rip fence scale indicator (Fig. 38)
◌ Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.
◌ Unlock the fence rails lock lever (34).
