Bevel Cut - Ryobi CSS1000 Owner's Operating Manual

Fig 19
• Place the workpiece flat on the mitre table with
one edge securely against the fence. If the board is
warped, place the convex side against the fence
and clamp the vice. If the concave edge of a board
is placed against the fence, the board could
collapse on the blade at the end of the cut,
jamming the blade. (Fig 19)
• When cutting long pieces of timber or molding,
support the opposite end of the stock with the
material supports.
• Align cutting line on the workpiece with the edge
of saw blade.
• Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it
against the fence. Use the vice to secure the
workpiece. (Fig 19)
WARNING: To avoid serious personal
injury, keep your hands outside the no
hands zone; at least 75mm from blade.
Never perform any cutting operation
freehand (without holding workpiece
against the fence). The blade could grab
the workpiece if it slips or twists.
• Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the
cutting operation just to make sure that no
problems will occur when the cut is made.
• Grasp the saw handle firmly, press down on the
lock-off lever, then squeeze the trigger switch. Allow
several seconds for the blade to reach maximum speed.
• Slowly lower the blade into and through the
workpiece.
• Release the trigger switch and allow the saw blade
to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the
workpiece.

■ BEVEL CUT

A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece with the blade angled to the fence and
mitre table. A bevel cut is made with the mitre table
set at zero degree position and the blade set at an
angle between 0
■ TO BEVEL CUT WITH YOUR MITRE SAW
• Pull out the lock pin and lift the saw arm to its full
height.
• Loosen the mitre table locking handle.
• Rotate the mitre table until the pointer aligns with
zero on the mitre scale.
• Lock the mitre table by rotating the mitre table lock
knob in a clockwise direction.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal
injury, always push the mitre table clamp
back down before making a cut. Failure to
do so could result in movement of the
mitre table while making a cut causing
serious personal injury.
• Loosen the bevel lock lever and move the saw arm
to the left to the desired bevel angle.
• Bevel angles can be set from 0
• Align the indicator point with the desired angle.
• Once the saw arm has been set at the desired
angle, securely tighten the bevel lock lever.
• Place the workpiece flat on the mitre table with
one edge securely against the fence. If the board is
warped, place the convex side against the fence. If
the concave edge of the board is placed against the
fence, the board could collapse on the blade at the
end of the cut, jamming the blade.
