OPERATION LENGTH OF CUT SCALE See Figure 16. The saw is equipped with a length of cut scale on its base. It is parallel with the saw blade and can be used to measure the distance into the material the blade cuts. NOTE: Six inches is the maximum length of cut that you can measure. Also, it is accurate only when the depth of cut is set at full maximum depth. CROSS CUTTING/RIP CUTTING See Figures 17 - 18. When making a cross cut or rip cut, align the line of cut with the outer blade guide notch on the base as shown in the figure. Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to determine how much, if any, you must offset the guideline to produce an accurate cut. NOTE: The distance from the line of cut to the guideline is the amount you should offset the guide. TO RIP CUT WITHOUT edge guide See Figure 18. Use a guide when making long or wide rip cuts with the saw. NOTE: You may also use a edge guide to make rip cuts. Refer to OPTIONAL Edge guide later in this manual. Secure the workpiece. Clamp a straight edge to the workpiece using C-clamps. Saw along the straight edge to achieve a straight rip cut. NOTE: Do not bind the blade in the cut. BEVEL CUTTING See Figures 19 - 20. 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 51.5°. Refer to TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING next. TO ADJUST BEVEL SETTING See Figure 20. Unplug the 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. 17 0 1 2 0 3 1 2 3 LENGTH OF CUT SCALE Top View of Saw Fig. 16 Guideline Blade Guide Notch C-CLAMP Fig. 17 STRAIGHT EDGE 30 15 GUIDELINE WORKPIECE C-CLAMP Fig. 18
