BEVEL ADJUSTMENT | FIG. 6 |
Disconnect plug from power source. The foot can be adjusted up to 56° by loosening the bevel adjustment lever at the front of the saw. Align to desired angle on calibrated quadrant. Then tighten bevel adjustment lever (Fig. 6).
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.
