NOTE: To remove the saw from the track, loosen the
anti-tip knob and swing it outwards to retract the lock
plate and pull the saw up and away from the track.
 Loosen the bevel lock knobs and move the saw to the
desired bevel angle.
 Bevel angles can be set from -1° to 48°.
NOTE: Use the bevel bypass lever to achieve bevel angles
between 45 and 48°. Use the negative bypass tab to
achieve a bevel angle of -1°. Refer to Extended Bevel
Settings later in this section.
 Tighten the bevel lock knobs.
WARNING:
Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel lock
knobs securely tightened can result in serious injury.
 Reinstall the battery pack.
 Slide the saw to the starting end of the track and ensure
the blade is positioned to cut all the workpiece.
 Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed.
 Carefully lower the blade until it contacts the workpiece.
 Guide the saw in a forward direction along the track to
achieve a bevel cut.
NOTE: Use caution to prevent the blade from binding in
the cut.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of splintering, always make
a score cut before cutting through laminated or veneer
faced plywood or composite materials.
 Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
 Slowly allow the front handle to rise until the blade is
completely inside of the guard and the saw is in the locked
position.
 Remove the battery pack from the saw.
BEVEL CUTTING WITHOUT A TRACK
 Remove the battery pack and install the riving knife.
NOTE: Always install the riving knife when making through
cuts (except pocket cuts).
 Secure workpiece to a workbench, table or other suitable
support.
 Place the plunge depth control lever in the plunge cut
position.
 Set the blade to the correct blade depth setting.
 Install vacuum hose (not included) if desired.
 Loosen the bevel lock knobs and move the saw to the
desired bevel angle.
OPERATION
 Bevel angles can be set from -1° to 48°.
NOTE: Use the bevel bypass lever to achieve bevel angles
between 45 and 48°. Use the negative bypass tab to
achieve a bevel angle of -1°. Refer to Extended Bevel
Settings later in this section.
 Tighten the bevel lock knobs.
WARNING:
Attempting a bevel cut without having the bevel lock
knobs securely tightened can result in serious injury.
 Reinstall the battery pack.
 Place the front of the base flat on the workpiece.
 Start the saw and let the blade reach full speed.
 Carefully lower the blade until it contacts the workpiece.
 Guide the blade into and through the workpiece.
NOTE: Use caution to prevent the blade from binding in
the cut.
 Release the trigger and allow the blade to come to a
complete stop.
 Slowly allow the front handle to rise until the blade is
completely inside of the guard and the saw is in the locked
position..
 Remove the battery pack from the saw.
EXTENDED BEVEL SETTINGS
See Figures 37 - 38, page 23 .
The extended bevel capacity of the saw allows you to make
bevel cuts from -1° to 48°.
NOTE: Always use the anti-tip feature when bevel cutting
along a track to prevent the saw from tipping or becoming
unbalanced.
To achieve bevel angles between 45 and 48°:
 Remove the battery pack.
 Rotate the bevel bypass lever fully clockwise to change
the upper bevel limit from 45° to 48°.
NOTE: Rotate the lever fully counterclockwise to change
the upper bevel limit back to 45°.
 Loosen the bevel lock knobs and move the saw to the
desired bevel angle.
 Tighten the bevel lock knobs.
To achieve a bevel angle of -1°:
 Remove the battery pack.
 Rotate the negative bypass tab near the rear of the saw
fully couterclockwise.
 Rotate the negative bypass tab near the front of the saw
fully clockwise.
 Loosen the bevel lock knobs and move the saw to the
desired bevel angle.
