# Setting mitre and bevel angles

To ensure precise cuts, the basic settings of the power tool must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive use.

## Setting Bevel Angles (saw blade) (see figure D)

The bevel angle can be set between -1° and 47°.

- Loosen the locking lever (26) by turning it anticlockwise.

Note: When the locking lever is fully loosened, gravity causes the saw blade to tilt into a position that corresponds to approximately 30°.

- Pull or push the hand wheel (19) along the slotted link until the angle indicator (64) shows the required bevel angle.
- Hold the hand wheel in this position and retighten the locking lever (26).

For quick and precise setting of the standard bevel angles of 0° and 45°, there are pre-set stops ((28)),((25)).

## Setting mitre angles (angle guide) (see figure E)

Note: Use appropriate equipment for making tapering cuts (long tapers).

The mitre angle can be set between 60° (left-hand side) and 60° (right-hand side).

- Loosen the locking knob (65) if it is tightened.
- Turn the angle guide until the angle indicator (66) shows the required mitre angle.
- Retighten the locking knob (65).

For quick and precise setting of frequently used mitre angles, there are stop screws for 45° (on the left- and right-hand side) and 0° on the angle guide (3) .

- Loosen the locking knob (65) if it is tightened.
- Fold out the adjusting plate (67).
- Turn the angle guide so that the thread of the required stop screw is to the right of the adjusting plate.
- Fold in the adjusting plate (67) and turn the angle guide until the thread of the stop screw is flush with the adjusting plate.
- Retighten the locking knob (65).
