TILTING CUTTINGHEAD FOR BEVEL
CUTTING
IMPORTANT: MOVE THE SLIDING FENCE TO THE
LEFT TO PROVIDE CLEARANCE FOR THE
BLADE AND GUARD. THE DEGREES OF TILT
DETERMINES HOW FAR TO MOVE THE SLIDING
FENCE. REFER TO THE SECTION "ADJUSTING
SLIDING FENCE."
1. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE
FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
2. The cuttinghead of your compound miter saw can be
tilted to cut any bevel angle from a 90° straight cut-
off to a 45° left bevel angle. Loosen bevel lock handle
(A) Fig. 18, tilt cuttinghead (B) to the desired angle,
and tightening lock handle (A).
3. Positive stops are provided to rapidly position the
saw blade at 90° and 45° to the table. Refer to the
section of this manual titled "Adjusting 0° and 45°
bevel positive stops." The bevel angle of the cutting
arm is determined by the position of the pointer (C)
Fig. 19, on scale (D).
4. In addition, a marked indicator (M) is provided on the
bevel scale (33.9°) for cutting crown moulding. Refer
to the "CUTTING CROWN MOULDING" section of
this manual.
ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE AND
WORK CLAMP
The high sliding fence (E) Fig. 20, provides support for
extra large workpieces used with your saw and should
always be set as close as possible to the saw blade.
When miter cutting (set blade 90° to the table and at an
angle to the right or left), the fence should be set all the
way toward the blade, (Fig. 20). When bevel cutting,
however (blade tilted at an angle to the table), the fence
(M) Fig. 21, and the work clamp (N) Fig. 21 should be
moved away from the blade to allow for proper clearance
for the saw blade and guard (L) Fig. 21.
To reposition the fence, loosen the thumb screw (K) Fig.
20, and slide the fence to the desired location and tighten
the thumb screw (K). To reposition the work clamp, loosen
the thumb screw (P) Fig. 21, and reposition to the work to
clear the blade and guard and tighten the thumb screw
(P).
MAKE SURE THAT FENCE (M) Fig. 21
AND WORK CLAMP (N) Fig. 21 ARE CLEAR OF
GUARD AND BLADE (L) Fig. 21 BEFORE OPERATING
SAW.
