Miter Cutting
MITER CUTTING is cutting wood at an angle
other than 90° to the edge of the wood. Follow
the same procedure as you would for crosscut-
ting (Fig. 54).
Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angle,
and lock it.
The miter gauge may be used in either of the
grooves in the table.
When using the miter gauge in the left-hand
groove, hold the workpiece firmly against the
miter gauge head with your left hand, and grip
the lock knob with your right hand.
When using the right-hand groove, hold the
workpiece with your right hand and the lock
knob with your left hand.
Bevel Crosscutting
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING is the same as
crosscutting, except that the wood is also cut
at a bevel angle other than 90° with the flat
side of the wood (Fig. 55). Adjust the blade to
the desired angle. Use the Miter Gauge in the
groove to the RIGHT of the blade where the
blade is tilted away from your hands and miter
gauge.
Compound Miter Cutting
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of miter cutting and bevel crosscutting. The
cut is made at an angle other than 90° to both the edge and the flat side of the wood. Adjust
the miter gauge and the blade to the desired angle and make sure that miter gauge is locked.
