"Compound Miter" Operating Mode
The "Compound MTR" operating mode is used to easily
determine the miter and bevel angles needed to create
precision joints at compound angles. This is particularly
useful when cutting crown molding laid flat on a com-
pound miter saw.
The "Compound Miter" operating mode is activated by
pressing the "MTR2" button.
Carry out the worksteps exactly in the given sequence.
"1. SPR": Storing the Spring Angle
SPR
To start "Compound Miter" calculation:
– Open the fold-out leg and base leg until the desired
spring angle is shown on the display.
– Measure the spring angle if it is unknown. To
do so, place the workpiece you want to mea-
sure between the fold-out leg and the base leg.
If measurement is not possible with the anglefinder/
digital level on especially narrow or small workpieces,
use auxiliary equipment, e.g. a bevel, and then set the
angle on the anglefinder/digital level.
– To use a saved "HOLD" value (indicator a is static on
the display), press "HOLD," previously saved angle
will flash. Press "MTR2" and held angle will blink
twice with "SPR" indicator flashing. Continue with
step 2 below.
When the angle is greater than 90° yet less than 180°
when pressing button 16, the "SPR" spring angle is auto-
matically converted as follows:
"SPR" = 180° – measured or set angle.
"2. CNR": Storing the Corner Angle
To measure the corner angle, place the fold-out and base
legs flat against the walls and read the measured corner
angle or set a known corner angle on the anglefinder/
digital level.
"3.MTR": Calculating the Miter Angle
Press button 16 again. "MTR" and the calculated miter
angle for the chop and miter saw are indicated on the
display.
