BEVEL CUTTING
See Figures 22 - 24.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints:
n Align the line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on
the base when making 45° bevel cuts.
n Make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to
determine how much you should offset the guideline
on the cutting material.
n Adjust the angle of the cut to any desired setting be-
tween zero and 51.5°. Refer to “To Adjust Bevel
Setting” next.
NOTE: When making bevel cuts, you may need to
re-adjust laser (See "Adjusting the Laser.")
