BEVEL CUT (FIG. J J)
[_ WARNING i
o The sliding fence must be
extended to theleft w hen making
bevelcuts. The sliding fencesnote
three bevel angles where the user
must adjust the fences to match
the degree of the bevel cut. Failure
to extend the sliding fence will not
allow enough space for the blade
to pass through which could result
in serious injury. At extreme miter
or bevel angles the saw blade may
also contact the fence.
o The right side sliding fence must
be removed when making any
right bevel angle cuts greater
than 35 ° in combination with any
right hand miter angle. This fence
must also be removed whenever
a 45 ° bevel angle is desired with a
miter angle greater than 22.5 °.
1. When a bevel cut is required,
loosen the bevel locking handle (1)
by turning it clockwise.
2. Tilt the cutting head to the desired
angle, as shown on the bevel
scale (2).
3. The blade can be positioned at
any angle, from a 90 ° straight
cut (0 ° on the scale) to a 45 ° left
bevel. Tighten the bevel locking
handle (1) to lock the cutting head
in position. Positive stops are
provided at 0 °, 33.9 ° and 45 °.
NOTE: The saw comes with a
33.9 ° bevel detent pin for setting
up crown molding cuts when the
angle of the walls equals 90 °.
4. Turn the laser guide on and
position the workpiece on the table
for pre-alignment of your cut.
