2. Retract blade guard. Place the saw on
blade side.
3. Lift bevel adjustment lever. Place a square
against the blade and foot plate to adjust
the 90˚ setting.
4. Move the adjustment screw, located on the bottom of the foot
plate (Fig. 7), so that the foot plate will stop at the proper angle.
5. Confirm the accuracy of the setting by checking the squareness
of an actual cut on a scrap piece of material.
The front of the saw foot plate (D) has a 0˚ kerf indicator (F) and a
45˚ kerf indicator (G) for vertical and bevel cutting. The kerf indicators
enable you to guide the saw along the cutting lines penciled on the
workpiece.
The indicator aligns with the left (outer) side of the saw blade. The
moving blade making the slot or “kerf” cut falls to the right of the
indicator. Position the saw along the penciled cutting line so that the
kerf falls into the waste or surplus material. Marking indicators on
the front of the foot plate are at 1/2" (13 mm) intervals for additional
cutting guides.
