Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.

NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button. This can
cause switch breakage.
CAUTION:
The tool starts to brake the cir-
cular saw blade rotation immediately after you
release the switch trigger. Hold the tool firmly to
respond the reaction of the brake when releasing
the switch trigger. Sudden reaction can drop the tool
off your hand and can cause a personal injury.
Adjusting depth of cut
CAUTION:
After adjusting the depth of cut,
always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide 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 danger-
ous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

CAUTION:
After adjusting the bevel angle,
always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever and set for the desired angle by tilting
accordingly, then tighten the lever securely.
► Fig.11: 1. Lever
Positive stopper
The positive stopper is useful for setting the des-
ignated angle quickly. Turn the positive stopper so
that the arrow on it points your desired bevel angle
(22.5°/45°/50°). Loosen the lever and then tilt the tool
base until it stops. The position where the tool base
stops is the angle you set with the positive stopper.
Tighten the lever with the tool base at this position.

Sighting
For straight cuts, align the 0° position on the front of the
base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the
45° position with it.
