This tool is provided with the kerf boards in the turn base to
minimize tearing on the exit side of a cut. The kerf boards are
factory adjusted so that the saw blade does not contact the
kerf boards. Before use, adjust the kerf boards as follows:
First, unplug the tool. Loosen all the screws (2 each on left
and right) securing the kerf boards. Re-tighten them only to
the extent that the kerf boards can still be easily moved by
hand. Lower the handle fully and push in the stopper pin to
lock the handle in the lowered position. Loosen two clamp
screws which secure the slide poles. Pull the carriage toward
you fully. Adjust the kerf boards so that the kerf boards just
contact the sides of the blade teeth. Tighten the front screws
(do not tighten firmly). Push the carriage toward the guide
fence fully and adjust the kerf boards so that the kerf boards

just contact the sides of blade teeth. Tighten the rear screws
(do not tighten firmly).
After adjusting the kerf boards, release the stopper
pin and raise the handle. Then tighten all the screws
securely.
CAUTION:
• Before and after changing the bevel angle, always
adjust the kerf boards as described above.

This tool is factory adjusted to provide the maximum
cutting capacity for a 190 mm (7-1/2") saw blade.
When installing a new blade, always check the lower limit
position of the blade and if necessary, adjust it as follows:
First, unplug the tool. Push the carriage toward the guide
fence fully and lower the handle completely. Use the hex
wrench to turn the adjusting bolt until the periphery of the
blade extends slightly below the top surface of the turn base
at the point where the front face of the guide fence meets the
top surface of the turn base.
With the tool unplugged, rotate the blade by hand while
holding the handle all the way down to be sure that
the blade does not contact any part of the lower base.
Re-adjust slightly, if necessary.
WARNING:
• After installing a new blade, always be sure that
the blade does not contact any part of the lower
base when the handle is lowered completely.
Always do this with the tool unplugged.
