Starting And Stopping - Hyundai HSC20V Instruction Manual

d. DEPTH OF CUT AT 90°
Always keeps correct blade depth setting. The correct blade depth setting for all cuts should
not exceed 1/4 in. below the material being cut. More blade depth will increase the chance of
kickback and cause the cut to be rough. For more depth of cut accuracy, a scale is located on
the upper blade guard.
The Circular Saw has an adjustable depth of cut. To adjust the depth of cut slackens the lever
located on the side of the machine, Fig.15.
Measure the depth required from the base plate to the highest point of the blade or use the
depth gauge on the fixed guard, Fig.16.
Tighten the depth adjustment knob securely.
e. ANGLE OF CUT 0-45º
To adjust the angle of cut between 0-45° slacken the adjustable angle of cut locking knob,
Fig.17.
The base plate assembly will now pivot between 0- 45° . Set the desired cutting angle by using
degree scale at the front of the machine and tighten locking knobs.
WARNING! Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool
operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
At the front of the base plate there are two notches marked 0° and 45<. These notches are a
guide to indicate the position of the blade in relation to the cut being made in the material.
