Note. Always use the correct blade depth setting. The correct blade depth setting for all cuts should not be more than 6mm below the material being cut. Allowing more depth will increase the chance of kickback and result in a rough cut.
Adjusting the bevel angle
CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before making any adjustments.
1.The saw can be adjusted to cut at any angle between 0° and 45°. When making 45° bevel cuts, there is
a notch (23) in the saw base to help you line up the blade with the line of cut. Align your line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on the base of the saw when making 45° bevel cuts.
2.Loosen the bevel adjustment lever (8) located at the front of the base plate.
3.Tilt the body of the saw until the required angle is reached using the bevel scale (9) as a guide.
4.Tighten the bevel adjustment lever (8) to secure the base plate.
Note. Always make a trial cut in a scrap piece of material along a guideline to determine how much you should offset the blade from the guideline to make an accurate cut.
Adjusting the bevel setting
CAUTION. Always ensure that the saw is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before making any adjustments.
1.Ensure power is disconnected from the mains socket.
2.With the saw turned upside down and the lower guard
fully retracted, check that the saw blade is at 90° to the base.
3.If adjustment is necessary, adjust as follows.
4.Loosen the lock nut of the stop screw found beside the parallel fence locking knob (10) and turn it either in or out to adjust the base down onto the screw.

5.Lock the screw with the lock nut.
