Adjusting depth of cut

CAUTION:
After adjusting the depth of cut,
always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base
up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base
by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more
than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using
proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for danger-
ous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.

Positive stopper
The positive stopper is useful for setting the des-
ignated angle quickly. Turn the positive stopper so
that the arrow on it points your desired bevel angle
(22.5°/45°/56°). Loosen the lever and then tilt the tool
base until it stops. The position where the tool base
stops is the angle you set with the positive stopper.
Tighten the lever with the tool base at this position.
