the table is designated as a HAZARD ZONE.
Never place your hands inside this area while
the tool is being operated. Always use a clamp
to secure short workpieces.
TILTING CUTTINGHEAD FOR BEVEL CUTTING
DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
IMPORTANT: Move the sliding fence to the left to provide clearance for the blade and guard. The degree of tilt determines
how far to move the sliding fence. Refer to the section "ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE."
1.
The cuttinghead can be tilted to cut any bevel angle from 90° to 45° left bevel. Loosen the bevel lock handle (A) Fig. 27,
tilt the cuttinghead (B) to the desired angle, and tighten the lock handle (A).
2. Positive stops are provided to rapidly position the saw blade at 90° and 45°. Refer to the section of this manual titled
"ADJUSTING 90° AND 45° BEVEL POSITIVE STOPS." The bevel angle of the cutting arm is determined by the position
of the pointer (C) Fig. 28 on scale (D).
3. In addition, a marked indicator (M) Fig. 28 is provided on the bevel scale (33.9°) for cutting crown moulding. Refer to the
"CUTTING CROWN MOULDING" section of this manual.

ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE
The sliding fence (Fig. 29) provides support for extra large workpieces used with your saw and should always be set as close
as possible to the saw blade. When miter cutting (blade 90° to the table and at an angle to the right or left), set the fence all the
way toward the blade (Fig. 29). When bevel cutting, however (blade tilted at an angle to the table), move the fence (A) Fig. 30
away from the blade to allow for proper clearance for the saw blade and guard. To reposition the fence, loosen the lock handle
(B), and slide the fence (A) to the desired location. Tighten the lock handle (B).
NOTE: The lock handle (B) is spring-loaded and can be repositioned. Pull up on handle to reposition it on the serrated nut
located underneath handle.
