OPERATION
TO BEVEL CUT
See Figure 18 and 19.
The angle of cut of your saw may be adjusted to any desired
setting between zero and 51.5 degrees. There is a window
in the saw base to help you line up the blade with the line of
cut.
See Figure 18. Align your line of cut with the inner blade
guide notch on the saw base and view through the window
when making full 45 degree bevel cuts. Since blade
thicknesses vary and different angles require different
settings, always make a trial cut in scrap material along a
guideline to determine how much you should offset the
guideline on the board to be cut.
When making a bevel cut, hold your saw firmly with both
hands (as shown in Figure 19). Rest the front edge of the
base on the work. Depress the switch trigger. ALWAYS let
the blade reach full speed, then guide your saw into the
work.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the work before it
reaches full speed could cause saw to kickback toward
you resulting in serious injury.
After you complete your cut, release the trigger and allow
the blade to come to a complete stop. AFTER the blade has
stopped, lift your saw from the work.
ADJUST BEVEL SETTING

WARNING:
Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental
starting causing possible serious personal injury.

angle setting on bevel scale.

WARNING:
Attempting bevel cut without bevel adjustment knob
securely tightened can result in serious injury.
