If the saw doesn't stop when its cut right through the cutting object.
1. Undo the locking nut on the screw (I used an adjustable spanner - I think it's an Imperial size nut).
2. WIth the saw running (but not cutting anything (i.e. FULLY DOWN - Don't worry - it won't harm the saw), slowly screw the screw in, until the saw stops.
3. Turn the screw another 1/4 turn, and then (keeping the screwdriver in it, to prevent it moving) tighten the lock nut again.
4. Test! If it doesn't work, repeat...
