Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, G)
The bevel angle adjustment mechanism can be adjusted
between 0° and 57°.
To achieve better accuracy in cutting, use the fine adjustment
markings located on the pivot bracket
21
.
1. Raise the bevel adjustment lever
10
toloosen.
2. Tilt the base plate to the desired angle by aligning the fine
bevel pointer
22
with the desired angle mark on the pivot
bracket
21
.
3. Lower the bevel adjustment lever toretighten.
Bevel Detent (Fig. A, G)
The DCS570 is equipped with a bevel detent feature. As you
tilt the base plate
5
you will hear a click and feel the base
plate stop at both 22.5 and 45 degrees. If either of these is the
desired angle, retighten the lever
10
by lowering it. If you
desire another angle, continue tilting the base plate until the
coarse bevel pointer
23
or the fine pointer
22
aligns with the
desiredmark.
Cut Length Indicator (Fig. A)
The markings on the side of the base plate
5
show the length
of the slot being cut into the material at the full depth of the cut.
The markings are in increments of 5mm.
Kerf Indicator (Fig. I)
The front of the saw base plate has a kerf indicator
9
for vertical
and bevel cutting. This indicator enables you to guide the saw
along cutting lines penciled on the material being cut. The kerf
indicator lines up with the left (outer) side of the saw blade,
which makes the slot or “kerf” cut by the moving blade fall to
the right of the indicator. Guide along the penciled cutting line
so that the kerf falls into the waste or surplus material.
