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
socket 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.
CAUTION:
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.
