pieces up to
55
mm (2-3/16") high and 310 mm (12-1/4") wide or 61 mm (2-3/8')
high and 298 mm (1 1-3/4") wide. At a right 45" bevel, workpieces up to 35 mm

Miter angle
Compound cutting is the process in
which a bevel angle is made at the
Left and right 45"
same time in which a miter angle is
~ ~ g h t 5 0 -
(1 1-3/4") wide can be cut.
Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade
to set the bevel angle. Be sure to re-
tighten the lever firmly to secure the
selected bevel angle safely. Secure the
workpiece with a vise. Switch on the
