BEVEL ADjUSTMENT
Disconnect plug from power source. The foot can be adjusted up to 45° by loosening the bevel adjustment lever at the front of the saw. Align to desired angle on the graduated quadrant. To adjust beyond 45°, pull bevel tab and lever out; continue bevel adjustment up to 51°. Then tighten bevel adjustment lever (Fig 7).
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.
