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 triangular rule,
try-square, etc. by turning the 0° bevel angle adjust-
ing 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 sub. 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°.
Adjust the 45° bevel angle only after performing 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°.
