• Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool
will not operate. In this situation, remove and
recharge the battery.
Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 10)
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever
securely.
Loosen the lever on the side of the rear handle and move
the base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure
the base by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than
one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using proper
cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous
KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.
Bevel cutting (Fig. 11)
For Model DSS610 (Fig. 12)
Loosen the lever on the bevel scale plate on the front
base. Set for the desired angle (0° – 50°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the lever securely. Use the 45°
stopper when you do precise 45° angle cutting. Turn the
stopper counterclockwise fully for bevel cut (0° - 45°) and
turn it clockwise for 0° - 50° bevel cuts.
For Model DSS611
Loosen the lever on the bevel scale plate on the front
base. Set for the desired angle (0° – 50°) by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the lever securely.
Sighting (Fig. 13)
For straight cuts, align the A position on the front of the
base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the B
position with it.
