BEVEL CUT (Fig. X_
The sliding fence must be extended to the left or right
when making bevel cuts.
The sliding fences note three
bevel angles where the user must adjust the fences to
match the degree of the bevel cut. Failure to extend the
sliding fence will not allow enough space for the blade to
pass through which could result in serious injury. At
ex_eme miter or bevel angles the saw blade may also
contact the fence.

To avoid injury from materials being thrown, always unplug
the saw to avoid accidental starting, and remove small
pieces of material from the table cavity. The table insert
may be removed for this purpose, but always reattach the
table insert prior to performing
a cut'dng operation.
MITER CUT (Fig. W)
The sliding compound miter saw is equipped with ten
positive miter stops (1) on the saw base. The locations are
at0, 15, 22.5, 31.6 and45 degrees left and right, and 60 °
right. These locations represent the most common angles
for cutting operation. To make a miter cut:
1.
Unlock the miter table by liffing up on the miter
quick-cam table lock (2).
2.
While raising the positive stop locking lever up (3),
grasp the miter handle (4) and rotate the miter table
left or right to the desired angle.
3.
Release the positive stop locking lever and set the
miter at the desired angle making sure the lever snaps
into place. NOTE: The lever will only lock into place at
one of the ten positive stops.
4.
Once the desired miter angle is achieved, press down
on the quick cam miter table lock to secure the table
into position.
The right side sliding fence must be removed when making
any right bevel angle cuts greater than 35 ° in combination
with any right hand miter angle.
This fence must also be removed whenever a45 ° bevel
angle is desired with a miter angle greater than 22.5 _'.
Tilt the cutting head to the desired angle as shown on the
bevel scale. The blade can be positioned at any angle,
from a 90 _'straight cut (0 °' on the scale) to a 45 ° left and
right bevel. Tighten the lock handle (2) by pushing down to
lock the cutting head in position. Bevel positive stops are
provided at 0°, 33.9 ° and 45 °.

NOTE: The saw comes with a 33.9° bevel detent pin for
setting up crown molding cuts.
