3. line Guide(FiGure 6 )
For a straight 90º cut, use the right side of notch in the footplate. For
45º bevel cuts, use the left side. The cutting guide notch will give an
approximate line of cut. Make sample cuts in scrap lumber to verify
actual line of cut. This will be helpful because the blade type and
thickness could be different.
4. lOwer Blade Guard
The boards may guard is a safety feature which reduces the risk
of serious personal injury. Never use the saw if the lower guard is
