Cleaning

WARNING: Electrical shock and mechanical hazard.
Disconnect the electrical appliance from the power source
beforecleaning.

WARNING: To ensure safe and efficient operation,
always keep the electrical appliance and the ventilation
slotsclean.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts.
Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any
part of the tool into aliquid.
Ventilation slots can be cleaned using a dry, soft non-metallic
brush and/or a suitable vacuum cleaner. Do not use water or
any cleaning solutions. Wear approved eye protection and an
approved dustmask.
Lower Guard
The lower guard should always rotate and close freely from
a fully open to fully closed position. Always check for correct
operation before cutting by fully opening the guard and letting
it close. If the guard closes slowly or not completely, it will
need cleaning or servicing. Do not use the saw until it functions
correctly. To clean the guard, use dry air or a soft brush to
remove all accumulated sawdust or debris from the path of
the guard and from around the guard spring. Should this not
correct the problem, it will need to be serviced by an authorised
servicecentre.
Base Plate Adjustment (Fig. E, BB, CC)
Your base plate has been factory set to assure that the blade is
perpendicular to the base plate. If after extended use you need
to re-align the blade, follow the directions below:
Adjusting for 90 Degree Cuts
1. Return the saw to 0degreesbevel.
2. Place the saw on its side, and retract the lowerguard.
3. Set the depth of cut to 51mm.
4. Loosen the bevel adjustment lever (
8
, Fig.CC). Place a
square against the blade and the base plate as shown in
Fig.BB.
5. Using a hex key(
24
, Fig.E), turn the set screw (
42
, Fig.BB)
on the underside of the base plate until the blade and
the base plate are both in flush contact with the square.
Retighten the bevel adjustmentlever.
Adjusting Bevel Adjustment Lever (Fig.CC)
It may be desirable to adjust the bevel adjustment lever
8
. It
may loosen in time and hit the base plate beforetighten ing.
To Tighten the Lever
1. Hold the bevel adjustment lever
8
and loosen the bevel
locknut
40
.
2. Adjust the bevel adjustment lever by rotating it in the
desired direction about 1/8 of arevolution.
3. Retightennut.
Blades
A dull blade will cause inefficient cutting, overload on the
saw motor, excessive splintering and increase the possibility
of kickback. Change blades when it is no longer easy to push
the saw through the cut, when the motor is straining, or when
excessive heat is built up in the blade. It is a good practice to
keep extra blades on hand so that sharp blades are available for
immediate use. Dull blades can be sharpened in mostareas.
Hardened gum on the blade can be removed with kerosene,
turpentine, or oven cleaner. Anti-stick coated blades can be
used in applications where excessive build-up is encountered,
such as pressure treated and greenlumber.
