ADJUSTING THE BEVEL
WARNING: Unplug the power tool!
Vertical cutting
Set the base plate (14) to maximum depth of cut setting.
Loosen bevel adjustment knob (10), set to 0º on bevel
scale (9), retighten bevel adjustment knob (10) and check
for 90º angle between the blade (19) and bottom plane of
the base plate (14), with a square.
Bevel cutting
The base plate (14) can be adjusted from 0° to 45°. Loos-
en the bevel adjustment knob (10) at the front of the saw.
Align to desired angle on calibrated bevel scale (9). Then
tighten bevel adjustment knob (10). (Fig. 4)
Due to the increased area of blade engagement in the
work and decreased stability of the base plate (14), blade
binding may occur. Keep the saw steady and the press
the base plate (14) firmly on the work piece.
LINE GUIDE
For a straight 90º cut, use the right cutting guide notch
(13a) in the base plate (14). For 45º bevel cuts, use cut-
ting the left guide notch (13b). Make sample cuts in scrap
timber to verify actual line of cut.

Switching off: Release the ON/OFF switch (1),
Your saw should be running at full speed before starting
the cut and turned off only after completing the cut.
DUST EXTRACTION
Use a vacuum cleaner during operation. Connect the
vacuum cleaner to the dust extraction port and switch on
the vacuum cleaner prior to starting a cut.
