ALTERNATIVE RIP METHOD
See Figure20.
Using C-clamps, firmly clamp a straight edge to the
workpeice and guide the saw along the straight edge to
achieve a straight rip cut. Do not bind the blade in the cut.
WORKPIECE
Align the line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on
the saw base when making 45° bevel cuts.
Since blade thicknesses vary and different angles
require different settings, always make a trial cut in
scrap material along a guideline to determine how
much you should offset the guideline on the board to
be oat.
When making a bevel cut hold the saw firmly with both
hands as shown in figure 22.

See Figures 21 - 22.
The angle of cut of the saw may be adjusted to any
desired setting between zero and 50°.
NOTE=When making cuts at 50°, blade should be set at
full depth of cut.
When making 45° bevel cuts, there is a notch in the saw
base to help you line up the blade with the line of cut.

Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece. Depress
the lock-off button and squeeze the switch trigger to start
the saw. Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide
the saw into the workpiece.
WARNING: The blade coming in contact with the
workpiece before it reaches full speed could cause
saw to "kickback" toward you resulting in serious
injury.
After you complete the cut release the trigger and allow
the blade to come to a complete stop, After the blade has
stopped, lift the saw from the workpiece.
TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING
See Figure 21.
Remove battery pack from saw.
Loosen bevel adjustment knob.
Raise motor housing end of saw until you reach
desired angle setting on bevel scale.
Tighten bevel adjustment knob securely.
,_ WARNING: Attempting bevel cut without knob
securely tightened can result in serious injury.
