Bevel cutting
Positive stopper
Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points
one of three positions (22.5°, 45°, 56°). Then, tilt the tool
base until it stops and secure the base with the lever. At
this time, the same angle as the one that the arrow points
is obtained.
Setting bevel angle
Loosen the lever and tentatively set the tool base at the
0°bevel angle, then tighten the lever securely.
Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points
one of three positions (22.5°, 45°, 56°) that is equal to or
greater than the desired bevel angle.
Loosen the lever again and then tilt and secure the tool
base at the desired angle securely.
NOTE:
• When changing the positive stopper’s position,
loosening the lever and tilting the bevel angle to
less than the desired stopper position number
allows to change it.
• When the arrow on the positive stopper points 22.5,
the bevel angle can be adjusted 0 - 22.5°;when the
arrow points 45, it can be adjusted 0 - 45°; when
the arrow points 56, it can be adjusted 0 - 56°.
Sighting
For straight cuts, align the A position on the front of the
base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the B
position with it.
