5. Bevel cutting procedures
Fig. 25
WARNING:
6. Bevel angle fine adjustment
Handle
(1) Grip the handle on the motor head and position it at the bevel angle you need. Temporarily tighten
the clamp lever.
CAUTION:
(2) Make fine adjustments to the bevel angle by gripping the handle and moving the knob (A).
NOTE:
Turning knob (A) clockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the left (as seen from
front).
Turning knob (A) counterclockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the right (as
seen from front).
If you tilt the main unit in the direction that does not place a load on plate (A) and pull plate
(A), the contact position changes and the right slope angle becomes 3°.
If you tilt the main unit in the direction that does not place a load on plate (B) and pull plate
(B), the contact position changes and the right slope angle becomes 48°.
(3) After adjusting to the desired angle, tighten the clamp lever and clamp the motor head.
CAUTION:
7. Compound cutting procedures
Compound cutting can be performed by following the instructions in 4 and 5 above. For maximum
dimensions for compound cutting, refer to "SPECIFICATIONS" table on page 9.
CAUTION:

When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side of the blade, the short cut-off
portion will come to rest on the right or left side of the saw blade. Always turn the
power off and let the saw blade stop completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece.
If the handle is raised while the saw blade is still rotating, the cut-off piece may
become jammed against the saw blade causing fragments to scatter about
dangerously.
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 safety cover to be caught in
the cutting groove of the workpiece and to contact the saw blade.

If not tightened firmly enough the motor head might suddenly move or slip, causing
injuries. Be sure to tighten the motor head section enough so it will not move.
Always check that the clamp lever is secured and the motor head is clamped. If you
attempt angle cutting without clamping the motor head, then the motor head might
shift unexpectedly causing injuries.
Always secure the workpiece with the right hand side for compound cutting. Never
rotate the table to the right for compound cutting, because the saw blade might then
contact the clamp or vise that secures the workpiece, and cause personal injury or
damage.
