BEVELCUTTING
See Figures 20 - 22.
NOTE: Refer to Using the Laser Guide for the following
applications.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints.
[] Align the line of cut with the inner blade guide notch on
the base when making 45° bevel cuts.
[] Make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to
determine how much you should offset the guideline
on the cutting material.
[] Adjust the angle of the cut to any desired setting
between zero and 50°.
NOTE: When making bevel cuts, you may need to
re-adjust the laser. Refer to Adjusting the Laser later in
this manual.
