2. Lower the depth adjustment locking lever and tighten
securely to lock the depth of cut before operating saw.
The length of cut markings on the side of the foot plate are
accurate at full depth of cut only. Setting the saw at the
proper cutting depth keeps blade friction to a minimum,
removes sawdust from between the blade teeth, results in
cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance of kickback.

Gullet of Blade
For the most efficient cutting action, set the depth
adjustment so that half of a blade tooth will project below
the material to be cut. This distance is from the tip of the
tooth to the bottom of the gullet in front of it (refer to
inset of Figure D). This keeps blade friction at a minimum,
removes sawdust from the cut, results in cooler, faster
sawing and reduces the chance of kickback. A method for
checking for correct cutting depth is shown in Figure D.
Lay a piece of the material you plan to cut along the side of
the blade, as shown, and observe how much tooth projects
beyond the material.
Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, E)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0˚ to
53˚. Detents are located at 22.5˚ and 45˚. The angle
quadrant is graduated in increments of 1˚. On the front
of the saw is a bevel angle adjustment mechanism which
consists of a calibrated angle quadrant
adjustment lever
. The angle quadrant allows for coarse

To set the saw for a bevel cut
1. Lift the bevel adjustment lever
to the desired angle by aligning the pointer with the
desired angle mark.
2. Push the bevel adjustment lever down and tighten
securely to lock the angle.
Foot Plate Adjustment for 90˚ Cuts
If additional adjustment is needed
1. Adjust the saw to 0˚ bevel.
2. Retract blade guard. Place the saw on blade side.
3. Lift bevel adjustment lever. Place a square
against the blade and foot plate to adjust the
90˚ setting.
4. Move the adjustment screw, located on the bottom of
the foot plate (Fig. F), so that the foot plate will stop at
the proper angle.
5. Confirm the accuracy of the setting by checking the
squareness of an actual cut on a scrap piece of material.

Kerf Indicator (Fig. G)

and a 45˚ kerf indicator

for vertical and bevel cutting.
The kerf indicators enable you to guide the saw along the
cutting lines penciled on the workpiece.
The indicator aligns with the left (outer) side of the saw
blade. The moving blade making the slot or "kerf" cut falls
to the right of the indicator. Position the saw along the
penciled cutting line so that the kerf falls into the waste
or surplus material. Marking indicators on the front of
the foot plate are at 1/2" (13 mm) intervals for additional
cutting guides.
