1. Pull on the release knob (2) and lift the saw arm (1) to its
full height.
2. Loosen the mitre lock (15).
3. Rotate the mitre table (12) until the pointer aligns with
the desired angle.
4. Retighten the mitre lock (15).
WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making
a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving
during the cut and cause serious personal injury.
5. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge
securely against the fence (11). If the board is warped,
place the convex side against the fence. If the concave
side is placed against the fence, the board could break
and jam the blade.
6. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite
end of the timber with the side support bars, a roller stand
or a work surface that is level with the saw table.

wherever possible.
8. It is possible to remove
the clamp assembly (30)
by loosening the clamp
assembly lock (23) and
moving it to the other side

Bevel cut

A bevel cut is made by
cutting across the grain of
the workpiece with the blade
angled to the fence and mitre
table. The mitre table is set at
the 0° position and the blade
set at an angle between 0º
and 45º (Fig. r).
1. Pull on the release knob (2)
and lift the saw arm to its
full height.
2. Loosen the mitre lock (15).
3. Rotate the mitre table (12) until the pointer aligns with
zero on the mitre scale (13).
4. Retighten the mitre lock (15).
WARNING.
Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making
a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving
during the cut, causing serious personal injury.

securely against the fence (11). If the board is warped,
place the convex side against the fence. If the concave
