CAution:
Always tighten the miter lock knob to secure the miter table in position
before cutting with the miter saw.
POINTER AND SCALE (FIG 20)
An arrow shaped pointer (3) is located at the forward end of the
miter saw throat plate. Each line on the miter scale (4) represents
1°. When the miter table is rotated the pointer is moved from one
line to the next along the miter scale, changing the angle of cut
by one degree.
TILTING THE CUTTING HEAD FOR BEVEL
CUTTING (FIG 21)
Your compound miter saw is equipped with a cutting head that
can be tilted 45° LEfT.
To bevel the cutting head LEfT, loosen the bevel lock handle (1)
at the rear of the miter saw, tilt the cutting arm left to the desired
angle, and then tighten the lock handle.
Each line on the bevel scale (2) represents one degree of
movement. The angle setting is indicated by a stationary red
pointer (3) and the bevel angle position of the cutting arm is
determined by the position of the red pointer to a line on the bevel
scale.
Positive stops are provided at 0°, 45° LEfT for quick adjustments.

TYPICAL COMPOUND MITER SAW OPERATIONS
wArning:
before making any adjustments or during set-up prior to cutting. Failure to disconnect or
unplug the machine may cause accidental starting, resulting in serious personal injury.
wArning:
workbench or appropriate work surface before performing any cutting operations. Failure
to do so may result in loss of machine control and/or result in personal injury.
wArning:
machine's "Hazard Zone", clamp the work piece in place and move your hand(s) to a safe
position before making the cut.
Regardless of the type of cut being performed with your compound miter saw the following basic set-up steps are
used, unless specified otherwise.
1. Check and confirm the cutting arm (bevel position) and the rotating table (miter position) are at the correct
settings and the related adjustment handles are firmly locked in place.
2. Mark the position of desired cut onto the workpiece surface to ensure proper blade and laser alignment.
3. Place the workpiece on the saw table, align the blade and/or laser light with the cut line, then position it firmly
against the fence and hold or clamp it firmly in place. If using a hand to hold the work piece in place, be sure it
is outside the "Hazard Zone". Never attempt freehand cutting or cutting a workpiece not firmly held against the
fence or table!
4. Turn on the saw, allowing the blade to reach full speed. Lower the cutting head slowly into the workpiece and
perform the cut at a steady rate.
5. When the cut is completed, release the trigger switch and allow the blade to completely stop rotating before
raising the blade and cutting head out of the completed cut.
Always be sure the miter saw is disconnected from the power source
Be sure the miter saw is securely bolted down or clamped to a
if securely holding the work piece causes your hand to be in the
