Loosen the bolt on the back of the base
with the hex wrench and slide the base
slightly backwards. Tilt the base to the de-
sired angle. The edge of the housing indi-
cates
the bevel angle. Then check the con-
tact
between the back edge of the blade
and the roller. Now tighten the bolt secure-
ly
on the back of the base.

Plunge cutting
Starting
a
cut
at
other than the edge of the
workpiece without first drilling
a
starting
hole requires
a
“plunge cut”. This can be
accomplished by tipping the tool forward
until the front end of the base rests against
the workpiece. Switch the tool on and
lower the back end
of
the tool slowly,
gradually allowing the blade to saw through
the workpiece until the base
is
able to
sit
flat on the workpiece. You may then pro-
ceed forward with the cut in
a
normal
manner.
If using
a
drill for
a
starting hole, bore
a
hole over 12 mm (1/2”) in diameter. Then insert
the blade in
it
and proceed.
