CUTTING WITH YOUR COMPOUND
MITER SAW
WARNING:
When using a work clamp or C-clamp to secure your
workpiece, clamp workpiece on one side of the blade
only. The workpiece must remain free on one side of the
blade to prevent the blade from binding in workpiece. The
workpiece binding the blade will cause motor stalling and
kickback. This situation could cause an accident resulting
in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER move the workpiece or make adjustment to any
cutting angle while the saw is running and the blade is
rotating. Any slip can result in contact with the blade
causing serious personal injury.
TO MITER CUT/CROSS CUT
See Figures 24 - 25.
A cross cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece. A straight cross cut is made with the miter table
set at the 0° position. Miter cross cuts are made with the
miter table set at some angle other than zero.
 Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full height.
 Lift the miter lock lever to unlock the miter table.
 Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with zero
on the miter scale.
NOTE: You can quickly locate 0°, 15°, 22-1/2°, left or right,
31.62° and 45° left or right as you rotate the control arm.
The miter table will seat itself in one of the positive stop
index points, located in base.
 Push the miter lock lever down to lock the miter table.
 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. See Figure 32.
 When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, support
the opposite end of the stock with a roller stand or with
a work surface level with the saw table. See Figure 30.
 Align cutting line on workpiece with edge of saw blade
or laser line.
 Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it against
the fence. Use the optional work clamp or a C-clamp to
secure the workpiece when possible.
 Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting
operation just to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
