Adjusting the Blade Height
The Cutter 3 CE saw uses a manual
raise/lower crank handle
located on the console with clockwise rotation providing lowering
action, and counter-clockwise rotation providing raising and
lowering action (Figure 21).
To adjust the blade height:
1. Pull upward on the raise/lower crank handle knob.
2. Rotate the crank handle clockwise to
lower the blade
.
Rotate the crank handle counter-clockwise to
raise the
blade
(Figure 21). The handle will stop rotating when the
blade has been fully raised or lowered.
When preparing to cut, your blade size determines the depth
of the cut. See Table 7 to determine the proper blade size for
your required cutting depth.
NOTE
When moving the saw around
between cutting, fully raise the blade
to avoid striking the ground with the
blade.
