2. Bevel angle
(1) 0° bevel angle
Push the carriage toward the guide fence and
tighten two clamp screws to secure the car-
riage. Lower the handle fully and lock it in the
lowered position by pushing in the stopper
pin. Loosen the lever at the rear of the tool.
Turn the 0° bevel angle adjusting bolt (lower
bolt) on the right side of the arm two or three
revolutions counterclockwise to tilt the blade
to the right.
Carefully square the side of the blade with the
top surface of the turn base using the triangu-
lar rule, try-square, etc. by turning the 0°
bevel angle adjusting bolt clockwise. Then
tighten the lever securely.
Make sure that the pointer on the arm point to
0° on the bevel scale on the arm holder. If it
does not point to 0°, loosen the screw which
secures the pointer and adjust the pointer so
that it will point to 0°.
(2) 45° bevel angle
Adjust the 45° bevel angle only after perform-
ing 0° bevel angle adjustment. To adjust left
45° bevel angle, loosen the lever and tilt the
blade to the left fully. Make sure that the
pointer on the arm points to 45° on the bevel
scale on the arm holder. If the pointer does
not point to 45°, turn the 45° bevel angle
adjusting bolt (upper bolt) on the right side of
the arm until the pointer points to 45°.
