What’s a Bevel Cut – Saw features

•A “bevel cut” is a cross-cut made with the blade perpendicular to the fence and with the table set at 0° miter. The blade can be tilted to any angle within the saw’s range: the left is 0 to 47° and the right is 0 to 47°.

•The bevel scale is sized and positioned for easy reading – see Figure 48.

Note: when performing right and left bevel cuts it is necessary to move the sliding fence away from the blade to avoid cutting into the fence. When compound cutting on the right it will be necessary to remove the right siding fence – see page 29.
