3. Checking the saw blade lower limit position
Check that the saw blade can be lowered 11/32" to 13/32" (9mm to 10mm) below the table insert as
shown in Fig. 10-a.
If necessary, adjust as follows:
(1) Loosen the 8mm wing nut and the two 8mm nuts on the 8mm depth adjustment bolt.
(2) Turn the 8mm depth adjustment bolt as necessary to set the lower limit position.
(3) Once the adjustment is complete, fully tighten the two 8mm nuts and the 8mm wing nut.
NOTE:
Before tightening the two 8mm nuts and the 8mm wing nut, confirm that the saw blade is
adjusted so that it will not cut into the turntable.

4. Oblique angle
Before the power tool is shipped from the factory, it is adjusted for 0°, right angle, left 45° bevel cutting
angle and right 45° bevel cutting angle with the 8mm bolt (A), 8mm bolt (C) and the 8mm bolt (B).
When changing the adjustment, change the height of the 8mm bolt (A), 8mm bolt (C) or the 8mm bolt
(B) by turning them.
When changing the bevel angle to the right 45°, pull the fixing pin on the direction shown in Fig. 11 and
incline the motor head to the right.
When adjusting the motor head to 0°, always return the fixing pin to its initial position.
