!WARNING

The sliding fence must be extended to the left when making bevel cuts. The sliding fence has been notched three bevel angles where the user must adjust the fence to match the degree of the bevel cut. Failure to extend the sliding fence will not allow enough space for the blade to pass through which could result in serious injury. At extreme miter or bevel angles the saw blade may also come in contact with the fence.

COMPOUND CUT (FIG. FF)

A compound cut is the combination of a miter and a bevel cut simultaneously.

1.Extend the sliding fence as described in “SLIDING FENCE”.

2.Loosen the bevel lock handle (1) and position the cutting head at the desired bevel position. Lock the bevel lock handle.

3.Release miter lock lever (2). Press down the positive stop locking lever

(3) and position the table at the desired angle. Release the positive stop locking lever and lock the miter lock lever.

CUTTING BOWED MATERIAL (FIG. GG)

A bowed workpiece must be positioned against the fence and secured with a clamping devise before cutting. Do not position workpiece incorrectly or try to cut the workpiece without the support of the fence. This will cause the blade to bind, and could result in personal injury.
