BEVEL CUTTING - TILTING THE CUTTING HEAD
A bevel cut (Fig. 30) is made with the rotary table set
at 0
0
mitre.
NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the upper section
of the Fence to provide clearance for the moving
Cutting Head.
The Cutting Head can be tilted from the normal 0
0
(perpendicular position) to a maximum angle of 45
0
from the perpendicular to the left hand side only. Bevel
cutting is possible with or without the sliding carriage
system being deployed.
To tilt the Cutting Head to the left:
• Loosen the bevel lock lever. (Fig. 31)
• Tilt the Cutting Head to the required angle. A
protractor scale is provided as an aid to setting.
(Fig 32)
• Tighten the bevel lock lever when the desired
angle has been selected.
NOTE: The bevel lock lever is sprung loaded and this enables
it to be repositioned on its operating screw. Repositioning
may be necessary to avoid interference with other parts of the
machine when certain mitre angles are selected.
