CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base up or down. At the
desired depth of cut, secure the base by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than one blade tooth
projects below workpiece. Using proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for
dangerous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.
Bevel cutting

Positive stopper
Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points one of three positions
(22.5°,45°,56°). Then, tilt the tool base until it stops and secure the base with
the lever. At this time, the same angle as the one that the arrow points is
obtained.
Setting bevel angle
Loosen the lever and tentatively set the tool base at the 0°bevel angle, then
tighten the lever securely.
Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points one of three positions
(22.5°,45°,56°) that is equal to or greater than the desired bevel angle.
Loosen the lever again and then tilt and secure the tool base at the desired
angle securely.
NOTE:
• When changing the positive stopper's position, loosening the lever and
tilting the bevel angle to less than the desired stopper position number
allows to change it.
• When the arrow on the positive stopper points 22.5, the bevel angle can
be adjusted 0 - 22.5°;when the arrow points 45, it can be adjusted 0 -
45°; when the arrow points 56, it can be adjusted 0 - 56°.
