BEVEL CUTTING
See Figures 22 - 23.
The angle of cut of the saw may be adjusted to any desired
setting between zero and 50°.
NOTE: When making cuts at 50°, the blade should be set
at full depth of cut.
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.
Align your line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on the
saw base when making 45° bevel cuts.
Since blade thicknesses vary and different angles require
different settings, always make a trial cut in scrap material
along a guideline to determine how much you should offset
the guideline on the board to be cut.
When making a bevel cut, hold the saw firmly with both
hands.
Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece. Depress
the lock-off button and squeeze the switch trigger to start
the saw. Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide
the saw into the workpiece.
WARNING:
The blade coming in contact with the workpiece
before it reaches full speed could cause saw to
“kickback” toward you resulting in serious injury.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow
the blade to come to a complete stop. After the blade has
stopped, lift the saw from the workpiece.
TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING
See Figure 23.
Remove the battery pack from the saw.
Pull the bevel adjustment lever upward until the motor
housing moves freely.
Raise the motor housing end of the saw until you reach
the desired angle setting on the bevel scale (0-45°).
Pull the adjustment lever all the way up to set the angle
at 50°. To reach the 46° - 50° bevel setting, push the 50°
adjustment button.
Press downward on the bevel adjustment lever until the
motor housing is securely locked in place.

WIDTH OF CUT SCALE
See Figure 21.
A width of cut scale has been provided on the base of the
saw. When making straight cross cuts or rip cuts, the scale
can be used to measure up to five inches to the left side of
the blade. It can be used to measure up to one inch to the
right side of the blade.
