BEVEL ADJUSTMENTS
The angle of cut can be adjusted to any desired setting between 0°and 52°.
Because 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 workpiece to be cut.
