WARNING:
CAUTION:
6. 33.9° Set pin (A) for crown mouldings (Fig. 28)
(1) Push the bevel set pin (A) in towards the rear of the machine.
(2) Loosen the bevel locking handle.
(3) Tilt the cutting head until the set pin (A) stops the bevel angle at 33.9° on the bevel
scale.
(4) Tighten the bevel locking handle to lock the cutting head in position. (see Fig. 28)
NOTE
Stop block (B)
When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side of the
blade, the short cut-off portion will come to rest on the right or
left side of the saw blade. Always turn the power off and let the
saw blade stop completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece.
If the handle is raised while the saw blade is still rotating, the
cut-off piece may become jammed against the saw blade causing
fragments to scatter about dangerously.
When stopping the bevel cutting operation halfway, start cutting
after pulling back the motor head to the initial position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the lower
guard to be caught in the cutting groove of the workpiece and to
contact the saw blade.
* If not tightened fi rmly enough the motor head might suddenly
move or slip, causing injuries. Be sure to tighten the motor head
section enough so it will not move.
* Always check that the bevel lock handle is secured and the motor
head is clamped. If you attempt angle cutting without clamping
the motor head, then the motor head might shift unexpectedly
causing injuries.
: If 48° left bevel is necessary, slide the
bevel stop plate (A) clockwise away from
the stop block (A) to achieve 48° left
bevel.
If 48° right bevel is necessary, slide the
bevel stop plate (B) counterclockwise
away from the stop block (B) to achieve
48° right bevel.
Also, use anchor plate. (see Fig. 19-b)
