• Adjust rip guide to the length needed for the cut.
• Tighten edge guide screw securely.
When using a rip guide, position the face of the rip
guide firmly against the edge of workpieca. This
makes for a true cut without pinching the blade. The
guiding edge of workplace must be straight for your
cut to be straight. Use caution to prevent the blade
from binding in the cut.
TO BEVEL CUT
The angle of cut of your saw may be adjusted to any
desired setting between zero and 51.5 °. NOTE: When
making cuts at 51.5 ° blade should be set at full depth
of cut, with edge guide screw removed.
When making 45 ° bevel cuts, there is a notch in the
saw base to help you line up the blade with the line of
cut. See Figure 17.
