(Fig. 9)
1. Loosen the angle-locking knob,
which is located on the 0°-45°
bevel gauge on the base plate.

until the required angle is reached
(refer to the scale on the 0°-45°
bevel gauge).

to secure the base plate.
OPERATION
(Fig. 10-12)
Refer to the figures in this section to
learn the correct and incorrect ways
of handling the saw.
WARNING!
To make sawing eas-
ier and safer, always maintain proper
control of the saw. Loss of control
could cause an accident resulting in
possible serious injury.
DANGER!
When lifting the saw from
the workpiece, the blade is exposed on
the underside of the saw until the lower
blade guard closes. Make sure that the
lower blade guard is closed before set-
ting the saw down.
To make the best possible cut, follow
these helpful hints.
1. Hold the saw firmly with both
hands.
2. Avoid placing your hand on the
workpiece while making a cut.
3. Support the workpiece so that the
cut is always to the operator’s side.
4. Support the workpiece near the cut.
