SETTING UP THE TABLES FOR
ANGLE CUTS USING THE ANGLE
FINDER (FIG. FF, GG)
The MiterMate™ accurate angle cutting
is suited to do with the fact that most
walls and ceiling are not 90 degrees to
each other, and so you can make the
accurate angles for fewer miscut and
quicker task completion.
Using the MiterMate™ angle finder
to copy a corner angle:
1. Unlock the MiterMate™ angle finder
by loosening the knob (1), open up
the paddles (2) to copy the corner
angle.
Fig. FF
a) For inside corner, adjust the
paddles to make the angle (X1)
between two paddles larger than
the inside corner angle(X2), and
then butt each paddle flat against
the wall surface.
b) For outside corner, adjust the
paddles to make the angle (Y1)
between two paddles smaller than
the outside corner angle (Y2), and
then utt each paddle flat against
the wall surface.
