28 ENGLISHBevel cutWARNING: After setting the blade for a bevelcut, ensure that the carriage and blade will havefree travel throughout the entire range of theintended cut before operating the tool. Interruptionof the carriage or blade travel during the cutting oper-ation may result in kickback and serious personal WARNING: While making a bevel cut keephands out of the path of the blade. blade may confuse the operator as to the actual bladepath while cutting and contact with the blade will WARNING: The blade should not be raiseduntil it has come to a complete stop. During abevel cut the piece cut off may come to rest againstthe blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating the& the material to fragment which may result in serious NOTICE: When pressing down the handle, applypressure in parallel with the blade. If a force isapplied perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pres-sure direction is changed during a cut, the precisionof the cut will be impaired.\Fig.491.

Switch on the tool without the blade making anycontact and wait until the blade attains full speed.7. Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-tion while applying pressure in parallel with the bladeand push the carriage toward the guide fence to cutthe workpiece.8. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool andwait until the blade has come to a complete stopbefore returning the blade to its fully elevated position.Compound cuttingCompound cutting is the process in which a bevelangle is made at the same time in which a miter angleis being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can beperformed at the angle shown in the table.Miter angle Bevel angleLeft and Right 0° - 45° Left and Right 0° - 45°> [$ - [[ !"
