# 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 B)

The bevel angle can be set between 0° and 45°.

- Loosen the locking lever (18) 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 (14) along the slotted link until the angle indicator (52) shows the required bevel angle.
- Hold the hand wheel in this position and retighten the locking lever (18).

For quick and precise setting of the standard bevel angles of 0° and 45°, there are pre-set stops ((20)),((17)).

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

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

The mitre angle can be set between 30° (left-hand side) and 30° (right-hand side).

- Loosen the locking knob (53) if it is tightened.
- Turn the angle guide until the angle indicator (54) shows the desired mitre angle.
- Retighten the locking knob (53).
