When stopping the bevel cutting operation halfway, start cutting after
pulling back the motor head to the initial position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the lower guard
to be caught in the cutting groove of the workpiece and to contact the
saw blade.
CAUTION: When cutting a workpiece of 61mm(2-13/32") height in the left 45° bevel
cutting position or a workpiece of 36mm (1-13/32") height in the right
45° bevel cutting position, adjust the lower limit position of the motor
head so that the gap between the lower edge of the motor head and the
workpiece will be 2 to 3mm (3/32" to 1/8") at the lower limit position
(refer to “3. Checking the saw blade lower limit position” on page 12).
8. Miter cutting procedures
(1) Loosen the side handle and pull up the lever
for angle stoppers. Then, adjust the turntable
until the indicator aligns with desired setting
on the miter scale (Fig. 31).
(2) Re-tighten the side handle to secure the
turntable in the desired position.
(3) The miter scale (Fig. 32) indicates both the
cutting angle on the angle scale and the
gradient on the grade scale.
(4) The gradient, which is the ratio of the height
to the base of the triangular section to be
removed, may be used for setting the miter
scale instead of the cutting angle, if desired
(see Fig. 33).
(5) Therefore, to cut a workpiece at a grade of 2/
10, set the indicator to position a as indicated
in Fig. 32.
NOTE: * Positive stops are provided at the right
and left of the 0° center setting, at 15°,
22.5°, 30° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of
the indicator are properly aligned.
* Operation of the saw with the miter
scale and indicator out of alignment, or
with the side handle not properly
tightened, will result in poor cutting
precision.
9. Compound cutting procedures
Compound cutting can be performed by following the instructions in 7 and 8 above.
For maximum dimensions for compound cutting, refer to “SPECIFICATIONS” table on
page 6.
