BEVEL ADJUSTMENT

Disconnect plug from power source. The foot FIG. 8 can be adjusted up to 45° by loosening the

bevel adjustment knob at the front of the saw. Align to desired angle on calibrated quadrant. Then tighten bevel adjustment knob (Fig. 8). Because of the increased amount of blade engagement in the work and decreased stability of the foot, blade binding may occur. Keep the saw steady and the foot firmly on the workpiece.
