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 Fig. 34a-34b)
When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding,
support the opposite end of the workpiece with
extension table. (See Fig. 24b)
Align cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of
saw blade.
Turn the precision blade guide systems ON/OFF switch
on to project the blade shadow onto the workpiece.
Loosen the slide lock knob by turning the knob counter-
clockwise.
Grasp the workpiece rmly with one hand and secure it
against the fence. Use the workpiece clamp or a C-clamp
to secure the workpiece when possible. Make sure that
the clamp does not interfere with the cutting operation.
Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the
cutting operation to make sure that no problems will
occur when the cut is made.
With the saw o , grasp the switch handle rmly then
pull the saw forward until the blade arbor (center of the
saw blade) is over the front of the workpiece.
Turn the saw on and allow several seconds for the blade
to reach maximum speed.
Slowly lower the blade into and through the front edge
of the workpiece.

Miter cut (Fig. 27a-27b)
A miter cut is one that is at an angle across the horizontal
surface of the material. 45° miter cuts to join two pieces in a
right angle corner are common. A 30° cut is often used for a
scarf joint or to make a chamfered end.
Loosen the miter lock handle by turning it counter-
clockwise and squeeze the miter latch lever .
Move the table to the desired angle.
Release the miter latch and tighten the miter lock
handle after adjusting the miter angle.
NOTICE: You can quickly locate 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45°
left or 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° and 60° right by releasing the
miter latch lever as you rotate the miter table. The table will
seat itself in one of the positive stop notches, located in the
miter table base.
