Prepare a wooden work bench (Fig. 7)
Since the saw blade will extend beyond the lower
surface of the lumber, place the lumber on a work
bench when cutting. If a square block is utilized as
a work bench, select level ground to ensure it is
properly stabilized. An unstable work bench will
result in hazardous operation.

CAUTION:
To avoid possible accident, always ensure that the
portion of lumber remaining after cutting is
securely anchored or held in position.
ADJUSTING THE SAW PRIOR TO USE
1.
Adjusting the cutting depth (Fig. 8)
WARNING:
If the wing-nut is loose, injury can result.  Tighten
it securely after adjustment.
To adjust cutting depth, loosen the Wing-nut and,
while holding the base with one hand, move the
main body up and down to obtain the prescribed
cutting depth.
After adjusting to the prescribed cutting depth,
tighten the Wing-nut securely.

2.
Adjusting the angle of inclination
WARNING:
If the wing-nut is loose, injury can result.  Tighten
it securely after adjustment.
As shown in Fig. 9 by loosening the wing-bolt on
the inclined gauge, the saw blade may be inclined
to a maximum angle of 50° in relation to the base.
Always insure that the wing-bolt is thoroughly
tightened after making the desired adjustment.

NOTE:
Values of the inclined gauge provided on the base
merely serve as a rough guideline.  For cutting
operation at an inclined posture, use the circular
saw after adjusting the angle between the base
and the saw blade with a protractor, etc.
3.
Regulating the guide (Fig. 10)
The cutting position can be regulated by moving
the guide to the left or right after loosening its
knob-bolt. The guide may be mounted on either
the right or left side of the tool.
