Cutting along Lines


On the base plate are two notches marked with 0° and 45° which work as
cut guide marks. The 0° notch shows the position of the saw blade for right
angle cuts. The 45° notch shows the position of the saw blade for 45° cuts.
When making the cuts always keep the thickness of the saw blade in
mind. Always cut along the outside of the line. This was you will not
decrease the size of the work piece by the thickness of the saw blade.

It is advisable to execute a trial cut before stating work!
