NOTE
○
Positive stops are provided at the right
and left of the 0° center setting, at 15°,
22.5°, 30° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of
the indicator are properly aligned.
○
Operation of the saw with the miter scale
and indicator out of alignment, or with the
side handle not properly tightened, will
result in poor cutting precision.
13. Bevel cutting procedures (
Fig. 24
)
(1) Loosen the clamp lever and bevel the
saw blade to the left or to the right. When
tilting the motor head to the right pull the
set pin (A) towards the rear. The clamp lever adopts a latchet system. When contacting the
work bench and the main body, pull
the clamp lever in the direction of the
arrow mark as illustrated in
Fig. 24
,
and change the direction of the clamp
lever.
(2) Adjust the bevel angle to the desired
setting while watching the bevel angle
scale and indicator, then secure the
clamp lever.
WARNING
When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side of the blade, the short cut-o
ff
portion will come to rest on the right or left side of the saw blade. Always turn the power
o
ff
and let the saw blade stop completely before raising the handle from the workpiece.
If the handle is raised while the saw blade is still rotating, the cut-o
ff
piece may
become jammed against the saw blade causing fragments to scatter about
dangerously.
When stopping the bevel cutting operation halfway, start cutting after pulling back
the motor head to the initial position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the lower guard to be caught in
the cutting groove of the workpiece and to contact the saw blade.
CAUTION
When cutting a workpiece of 75 mm height in the left 45° bevel cutting position or a
workpiece of 50 mm height in the right 45° bevel cutting position, adjust the lower
limit position of the motor head so that the gap between the lower edge of the
motor head and the workpiece will be 2 to 3 mm at the lower limit position (refer to
“11. Checking the saw blade lower limit position” on page 43).
