To miter cut/cross cut (Fig .40)
A crosscut is made by cutting across the grain
of the workpiece. A straight crosscut is made
with the miter table set at the 0° position. Miter
cross cuts are made with the miter table set at
an angle other than 0°.
NOTICE: It may be necessary to adjust the
sliding fence to ensure proper clearance prior
to making the cut.
1. Slide the head assembly to its most
rearward position and tighten the slide-rail-
lock knob securely.
2. Raise the head assembly to its full height.
3. Set the bevel angle to
4. Set the miter angle to the desired position. Then tighten the miter-lock knob to secure the
miter table (See Miter-angle adjustment).
5. Place the workpiece flat on the miter table with one edge securely against the fence. If the
board is warped, place the convex side against the fence. If the concave edge of a board
is placed against the fence, the board could collapse on the blade at the end of the cut,
jamming the blade.
6. When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, support the opposite end of the workpiece
with a roller stand or with a work surface level with the saw table. (See To support long
workpieces)
7. Turn the Shadow Light switch on.
8. Lower the blade and align the cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of saw blade or
the blade shadow.
9. Grasp the workpiece
clamp, a C-clamp, or other suitable clamp to secure the workpiece whenever possible.
10. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to make sure that no
problems will occur when the cut is made.
11. Grasp the main handle firmly. Turn the saw on. Allow several seconds for the blade to
reach maximum speed.
12. Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
13. Release the power switch and
returning head assembly to the raised position and/or removing workpiece.
To bevel cut (Fig .41)
A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain of the workpiece with the blade angled to the
workpiece. A straight bevel cut is made with the miter table set at the zero-degree position and
the blade set at an angle between 0° and 45°.
NOTICE: It may be necessary to adjust or remove the sliding fence to ensure proper
clearance prior to making the cut.
1. Slide the head assembly to its most rearward position and tighten the slide-lock knob
securely.
2. Pull out the head-assembly-lock pin and lift the head assembly to its full height.
3. Engage the miter detent to 0° then tighten the miter- lock knob to secure the miter table.
