Overview; Adjusting The Cutting Depth; Adjusting The Bevel Angle - GMC DLS2000MCF Manual

You have purchased a 2000W Carbon Fibre Circular Saw
with the GMC laser line generator system.
Please refer to the safety instructions given earlier in this
manual for important instructions regarding the use of the
laser.
The saw is capable of ripping and cross cutting hardwoods,
softwoods and man made boards quickly, accurately and
safely.
By loosening the bevel adjustment knob (9), the body and
the blade of the saw can be tilted to any angle up to 55° for
making angle cuts. Please note that the maximum depth of
cut is reduced when cutting at an angle.
A fixed upper blade guard (16) encloses the upper part of
the blade. As the saw advances through the work piece,
the pivoting lower blade guard (14) is pushed back by the
edge of the wood to expose only that part of the blade
which is needed. When the blade clears the work, the
spring loaded lower blade guard snaps back to completely
enclose the blade.

Adjusting the cutting depth

CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off
and unplugged from the power supply before making
any adjustments.
1. Ensure that the saw is facing away from you.
2. Loosen the depth locking lever (18) (Fig. A).
3. Hold the base plate flat against the edge of the work
piece and lift the body of the saw until the blade is at the
right depth (Fig. B). Use the depth of cut indicator (19) to
determine the cutting depth.

4. Tighten the depth locking lever (18).
Note. Always use the correct blade depth setting.
The correct blade depth setting for all cuts should not be more
than (6.35mm) 1/4" below the material being cut. Allowing more
depth will increase the chance of kickback and result in a rough
cut.

Adjusting the bevel angle

CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off
and unplugged from the power supply before making
any adjustments.
1. The saw can be adjusted to cut at any angle between
0° and 55°. When making 55° bevel cuts, there is a notch
(23) in the saw base to help you line up the blade with the line
of cut. Align your line of cut with the inner blade guide notch
on the base of the saw when making 55° bevel cuts.
2. Loosen the bevel adjustment knob (9) located at the front of
the base plate (Fig. C).
3. Tilt the body of the saw until
the required angle is
reached (Fig. D) using the
bevel scale (10) as a guide.

4. Tighten the bevel adjustment
knob (9) to secure the base
plate. (Fig. E)
