Bevel Adjustment
(Fig. 1, Fig. 8)
1. Disconnect the Battery Pack 13 from the
tool.
2. Loosen the Bevel Adjustment Knob 18.
3. Align to the desired angle on the Bevel
Scale 19 by adjusting the Foot 4 plate.
The Foot 4 can be adjusted up to 45°.
4. Tighten the Bevel Adjustment Knob 18.
Because of the increased amount of blade
engagement in the work and decreased sta-
bility of the foot, blade binding may occur.
Keep the saw steady and the foot firmly on
the workpiece.
Cutting Line Guide Notches
(Fig. 9, Fig. 10)
The Cutting Line Guide Notches 0° and 45°
at the front of the footplate indicate the ap-
proximate line of cut.
• For a non-beveled cut, use Cutting Line
Guide Notch 0°.
• For 45° bevel cuts, use Cutting Line Guide
Notch 45°.
• To ensure minimum splintering on the
good side of the material to be cut, face
the good side down.
• Make sample cuts in scrap lumber to verify
the actual line of cut.
Use the Cutting Line Guide Notch in conjunc-
tion with the Alignment Laser 17.
Alignment Laser
(Fig. 1, Fig. 11, Fig. 12)
Your tool is equipped with an Alignment La-
ser 17 that will turn on when the Alignment
Laser Power Button 15 is depressed.
The Alignment Laser 17 should always be
considered as reference only. Always under-
stand where your blade is at all times.
1. Draw a straight line on the workpiece.
2. Clamp the workpiece.
3. Adjust the Bevel Scale 19 to the desired
angle.
