For Models Country Description
Casted hole (D)
LS1013
All countries
As illustrated below, three of the four casted holes in the Guide Rule have been enlarged so that the Guide Rule can turn more largely for easier miter angle adjustment for 90°.
Casted hole (A)
Casted hole (B)
Casted hole (C)
Casted holes (A), (C), (D): Each diameter has been enlarged by 1mm; from ø10mm to ø11mm.
Casted hole (B): Its diameter remains the same (ø8mm) because it is the pivot on which the Guide Rule turns.
Current New
Maximum turning range to the front (also the same range to the back)
When you find much difficulty in miter angle adjustment for 90°, take steps for easy adjustment as described in the next page.
Maximum turning range has become larger.

(2) Enlarging Casted Holes in the Guide Rule (when the Guide Rule is the current one)
Enlarge each diameter of the three casted holes with a drill; by 1mm from ø10mm to ø11mm. Note: As illustrated on right, do not enlarge the hole (B) because it is the pivot hole on which the Guide Rule turns.
You may reset the Pin Holder at the same time.
