Bevel Adjustment (Fig . 6)
Your tool is equipped with a bevel lock lever for adjusting the cutting angle.
a. Detach the battery pack from the tool.
b. Loosen the bevel lock lever by rotating it counterclockwise.
c. Tilt the foot until the bevel indicator mark reaches the desired setting on the bevel scale.
NOTE:
The 45°bevel stop offers a quick setting of 45°bevel angle.
d. To set a bevel angle larger than 45°, rotate the 45°bevel stop to take it out from the bevel
adjustment slot.
e. Securely tighten the bevel lock lever by rotating it clockwise.
WARNING
WARNING
bevel cut. Keep the saw steady and the foot firmly on the workpiece.
NOTE: When bevel cutting, the depth of cut will not correspond with value on the depth
scale.
NOTE: Since the 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 workpiece to be cut.

Line Guide (Fig . 7)
There are two cutting guide notches on the
foot.
The cutting guide notches will indicate an
approximate line of cut. Use the 0°notch on the
right as a visual guide for a straight 90°cut. For
a 45°bevel cut, use the 45°notch on the left
(Fig. 6). Make sample cuts in scrap lumber to
verify the actual line of cut. This will be helpful
as blade types and thicknesses vary.
To ensure minimum splintering on the good
side of the material to be cut, face the good
side down.

Attempting to make bevel cuts without the bevel lock lever securely
tightened can result in serious injury.
Because of the increased amount of blade engagement in the work
and decreased stability of the foot, blade binding may occur during a
