8. Compound cutting
Compound cutting can be performed by following the instructions in 6 and 7 above.
At a bevel angle of 45° and a miter angle of 45°, a workpiece of 39mm (1-9/16") in height
and up to 220mm (8-21/32") in width can be cut.
CAUTION:
9. Groove cutting procedures
Grooves in the workpiece can be cut as indicated in Fig. 46 by adjusting the 8mm depth
adjustment bolt.
Cutting depth adjustment procedure:
(1) Loosen the 8mm wing nut and turn the 8mm depth adjustment bolt by hand.
(2) Adjust to the desired cutting depth by setting the distance between the saw blade
and the surface of the base (see b in Fig. 26).
(3) The 8mm wing nut must be properly tightened after the adjustment has been
completed.

Always secure the workpiece with the right hand side for compound
cutting. Never rotate the turntable to the right for compound cutting,
because the saw blade might then contact the clamp or vise that
secures the workpiece, and cause personal injury or damage.
