Locks the miter saw at a preset positive
stop for the desired miter angle.
SWITCH HANDLE – The switch

the laser on/off switch. The blade is
lowered into the workpiece by pushing
down on the handle. The saw will
return to its upright position when the
handle is released.

most common use is with crown
molding.
CROSS CUT – A cut which runs across
the board perpendicular to the grain.
FREEHAND – Performing a cut without
using a fence (guide), hold down or
other proper device to prevent the
workpiece from twisting during the
cutting operation.
HEEL – Misalignment of the blade.
KERF – The width of a saw cut,
determined by the thickness and set of
the blade.
