Setting and testing
Setting the Miter angle
A miter cut is one that is at an angle across
the horizontal surface of the material. You will
commonly make 45º miter cuts to join two pieces
in a right angle corner. A 30º cut is often used
for a scarf joint or to make a chamfered end.
1. To make a miter cut, loosen the Miter Lock Knob by
turning it approximately 1/4 turn counterclockwise.
2. Push down on the Miter Lever and move the Table
to the desired angle. The Miter Angle Indicator
will indicate the selected angle. The table has
stops at often used miter angles, including 0°, 15°,
22.5°, 30°, and 45° on both left and right sides.
Setting the Bevel angle
A bevel cut is one that is at an angle to the vertical
plane of the material. Bevel cuts can be used to miter
relatively wide and thin material. Bevel cuts can be used
in combination with a miter cut to form a compound
angle. Compound angle cuts are often used in crown
moldings, picture frames and similar trim materials.
1. To set the bevel angle, loosen the Bevel Lock
Handle at the rear of the saw by rotating
the Handle 1/2 turn counterclockwise.
2. Move the blade assembly left to the desired angle.
You can read the angle on the Bevel Angle Indicator.

3. With the Table adjusted to the desired angle, lock
the Table in place with the Miter Lock Knob.
4. Place the work piece flush against the Fence, secure
it with the Hold Down Clamp and make the cut.
5. Check that miter angle is correct. If it is not, correct
the angle before cutting your work material.
See Adjusting Miter Table
Indicator on page 15.
3. Lock the blade assembly into position by
rotating the Bevel Lock Handle clockwise.
Tighten firmly but not over‑tight.
4. Adjust the Sliding Fence to be close to the Blade
without touching it at any time during operation.
5. Make a sample cut in a piece of scrap and check
to be sure the bevel angle is correct. If it is not,
correct the angle before cutting your work material.
See Adjusting the Bevel Angle on page 15.
