Bosch Power Tools 4212L Bevel Cut, Bevel Range Selection, To operate in Bevel Range 0 to 45 Right

Saw Operations (continued)

Bevel Cut

•A “bevel cut” is a cross-cut made with the blade per- pendicular to the fence but tilted away from the vertical position.

•A bevel cut is made at 0° miter and any bevel angle in the range up to 47°.

•There are factory set bevel stops at 0° and 45° on both the left and right. (See Adjustment section if adjustments are required.)

•The front-positioned bevel range selector knob provides three bevel range choices.

•There are also positive crown molding bevel stops at 33.9° on both the left and right. Disengage this stop unless using the 33.9° angle (See Cutting Crown Molding for details.)

•The front-positioned bevel lock lever locks the head assembly at the desired bevel angle.
