3. Adjusting the angle of inclination
As shown in Fig. 5, Fig. 6 by loosening the
wing-nut on the incline gauge and the wing-bolt
on the base, the saw blade may be inclined
to a maximum angle of 45° in relation to the
base. After having completed the adjustment,
reconfi rm that the wing-nut and the wing-bolt
are fi rmly tightened.
4. Regulating the guide (Fig. 7)
The cutting position can be regulated by moving
the guide to the left or right after loosening its
wingbolt. The guide may be mounted on either
the right or left side of the tool.
5. Adjusting the guide piece
On the circular saw, it is possible to make fi ne
adjustment of the fi xing position of the guide
piece, where the saw blade and the premarked
line are to be aligned.
When the saw is shipped from the factory, the
linear portion of a front scale on the guide piece
is aligned with the central position of the saw
blade (Fig. 8).
Loosen the fi xed M4 screw on the guide piece,
should the fi xing position be wrong, and make
necessary adjustment of the position.
6. Using the dust collector
To use the vacuum cleaner to gather up
saw dust, attach the suction hose to the
dust collector which is attached to the main
unit by M4 and M5 screws. When attaching
the dust collector always be sure to change
the lever to the short type at this same time
(Fig. 9).
CAUTION
Continuing to use the lever that was
attached to the main unit prior to
shipping from the factory will cause it
to bind on the dust collector and will
interfere with the lower guard operation.
