Saw Operations
Miter Detent Override
The miter detent override button (Fig. 42, 21) allows the mi-
ter detent action to be locked out, allowing for micro adjust-
ments at any miter angle. When the desired miter angle is too
close to a standard mitering angle that has a detent slot (18),
this feature prevents the wedge on the miter detent system
from slipping into the detent slot on the miter detent plate
19
(17).
