Align your line of cut with the inner blade guide notch
on the saw base when making 45 ° bevel cuts.
Since blade thicknesses
vary and different
angles
require different
settings, always make a trial cut
in scrap material along a guideline to determine
how much you should offset the guideline on the
board to be cut.
When making a bevel cut hold your saw firmly with
both hands as shown in figure 19.

trigger to start your saw. Always

WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with
the workpiece before it reaches full speed could
cause saw to "kickback" toward you resulting in
serious injury.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and
allow the blade to come to a complete stop. After the
blade has stopped, lift your saw from the workpiece.
