NOTE: Turning knob (A) clockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the left (as seen from
front).
Turning knob (A) counterclockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the right (as seen
from front).
If you tilt the main unit in the direction that does not place a load on plate (A) and pull plate (A),
the contact position changes and the right slope angle becomes 3û.
If you tilt the main unit in the direction that does not place a load on plate (B) and pull plate (B),
the contact position changes and the right slope angle becomes 48û.
3 After adjusting to the desired angle, tighten the clamp lever and clamp the motor head.
CAUTION: Instruct the customers to always check that the clamp lever is secured and the motor head
is clamped. If customers attempt angle cutting without clamping the motor head, then the
motor head might shift unexpectedly causing injuries.
