Use the depth adjustment lever located on the saw to set the desired cutting depth.

How do I change the blade?

Troubleshooting

Saw won't start.

Check that both batteries are correctly installed and charged. Also, check the power switch.

Poor cutting performance or tear-out.

Ensure the correct blade is used for the material. Check the blade sharpness and replace it if necessary. Make sure the guide rail is securely attached and the cutting depth is set correctly.

Motor stops during operation.

The Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT) may have reduced the cutting speed due to the load. Reduce the cutting load or use a higher speed setting. Check the batteries' charge level.
