TOOL SET UP
Using the Work Piece Extension Supports
1.
The Work Piece Extension Supports are
inserted into each side of the Table, and
locked in place using the Wing Screws.
2.
When properly installed, the upper face of
the Work Piece Extension Supports are
level with the Table, and provide a wider
support surface for the work piece.
Adjusting the Miter Angle
1.
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.
Adjusting the Bevel Angle
1.
A bevel cut is one that is at an angle to
the vertical plane of the material.
2.
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.
Using the Depth Stop
1.
If you want to make a kerfing or rabbet
cut which does not cut through the work
piece, you can use the Depth Stop Screw
to control the depth of the cut.

3.
Always support the work piece to be level
with the table, and so that after the cut is
made the cut off pieces will not fall. You may
need to use saw horses or other supports
(not included) to support the work piece.
4.
If the work piece is not level, you will make
an unintentional bevel cut in the material.
If the work piece is not supported, it will
bind the blade and may cause the material
to kick back, potentially causing injury.
2.
To make a miter cut, loosen the Miter Lock
Knob by turning it approximately 1/4 turn
counterclockwise. Press down the Thumb Lever
to unlock the Table. While holding the Thumb
Lever down, move the Table to the desired
angle. The Miter Angle Indicator will indicate
the selected angle. The table will lock into place
at often used miter angles, including 22.5º, 30º,
45º, and 90º on both left and right sides.
3.
With the Table adjusted to the desired angle, place
the work piece flush against the Fence, secure it
with the Hold Down Clamp and make the cut.
3.
To set the bevel angle, loosen the Bevel Lock
Handle at the rear of the saw. To do this, press
in the Lock Button and rotate the Handle 1/2 turn
counterclockwise. Move the blade assembly
left to the desired angle. You can read the angle
on the Bevel Angle Indicator. Lock the blade
assembly into position by pressing in the Lock
Button and rotating the Bevel Lock Handle
clockwise. Tighten firmly but not over-tight.
4.
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.
2.
To limit blade assembly travel, turn the Depth Stop
Screw clockwise. The further you screw down the
Depth Stop Screw, the shallower the cut will be.
3.
After the desired cut has been made,
return the Depth Stop Screw to its open
position by turning it counterclockwise.
