OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
15. Sliding Fence
CAUTION
Adjust and fasten the fences properly before
cutting.
The sliding fences (U) are adjustable to
accommodate different sized work pieces. Loosen
the fence-lock knobs (V) on the sliding fences away
from the blade to make sure that the blade can not
contact the fence.
When making a crosscut or a miter cut, move the
sliding fences closer to the blade to better support
the work piece. When making a bevel cut, move
fences away from the blade to make sure that the
blade can not contact the fence.
16. Setting Cutting-Depth
When used, the depth-control knob limits the
downward travel of the saw blade when cutting
dadoes and other non-through cuts.
To use the depth guide
a. Remove the battery pack from the saw.
b. With the bottom of the depth-control knob (F)
touching the depth stop, adjust the depth-
control knob by turning it until the desired depth
of cut is attained.
c. A wooden spacer must be placed between the
workpiece and the fence to create a distance
of 3-1/2 inches between the workpiece and
the fence for a consistent depth of cut in the
workpiece. Use the work clamp to clamp the
spacer and use another suitable clamp to clamp
the workpiece. Make the slide cut at the desired
depth.
17. LED Work Light
The LED lighting system casts a shadow of the
blade onto the workpiece. This results in greater
accuracy of cuts and requires no adjustments.
To turn on the LED, press the LED switch (C).
The LED work light will automatically turn off after
approximately 15 seconds after the On/Off switch
(B) is released.
NOTE: The LED work light will automatically turn on
when the On/Off switch is depressed.
Bring the saw arm down so that the blade is approximately 1/4 in. from the workpiece. The
shadow of the blade will be projected onto the workpiece, indicating where the blade teeth will
make contact as the cut is made. Follow all of the cutting instructions for the type of cut to be
performed.
