Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts

The blade can tilt from 0° to 45° to make beveled cuts. Beveled cuts are made in the same manner as rip cuts.

To tilt the blade:

1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2.Loosen the lock handles at the front and back of the machine.

Note: The lock handles have a ratcheting action. Disengage them by pulling back on the handle. When held back (disengaged), the handles will rotate in either direction with- out turning the threads. When you let go of the handles, the internal spring will automati- cally engage them again so the threads turn with the handles.

3.Tilt the motor/blade assembly until the pointer shown in Figure 16 points to the desired blade tilt angle.
