from the cut, results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance
of kickback. A method for checking for correct cutting depth is shown
in Figure 7. Lay a piece of the material you plan to cut along the side
of the blade, as shown, and observe how much tooth projects beyond
the material.

Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. 7)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0° to 50°. The quadrant is
graduated in increments of 1°. On the front of the saw is a bevel angle
adjustment mechanism consisting of a calibrated quadrant and a bevel
adjustment knob (J).
TO SET THE SAW FOR A BEVEL CUT
1. Loosen (counterclockwise) the bevel adjustment knob (J) and tilt
shoe to the desired angle by aligning the pointer with the desired
angle mark.
2. Retighten knob firmly (clockwise).

Shoe Adjustment for 90°Cuts (Fig. 8)
IF ADDITIONAL ADJUSTMENT IS NEEDED:
1. Adjust the saw to 0° bevel.
2. Retract the lower blade guard. Place the
saw on blade side.
3. Loosen bevel adjustment knob (J). Place a
square against the blade and shoe to adjust
the 90° setting.
4. Turn the calibration screw (Q) so that the
shoe will stop at the proper angle.
5. Confirm the accuracy of the setting by checking the squareness of
an actual cut on a scrap piece of material.
Kerf Indicator (Fig. 9)
The front of the saw shoe has a kerf indicator (I)
for vertical and bevel cutting. This indicator
enables you to guide the saw along cutting
lines penciled on the material being cut. The
kerf indicator lines up with the left (outer) side of
the saw blade, which makes the slot or "kerf"
cut by the moving blade fall to the right of the
indicator. Guide along the penciled cutting line
so that the kerf falls into the waste or surplus
material.
Workpiece Support (Fig. 10–12)
WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to
hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause
personal injury. Figure 10 illustrates proper hand support of the saw.
