MITER SCALE (FIG. M)
The miter scale assists the user in setting
the desired miter angles from 45° left to 45°
right. The miter saw table has nine of the most
common angle setttings with positive stops at
0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, and 45°. These positive
stops position the blade at the desired angle
quickly and accurately.
To Adjust the Angle:
1. Unlock the miter table by turning the miter
handle (1) counterclockwise.
2. Press down the positive stop locking lever (2)
while holding the miter handle, and rotate the
table left or right to the desired angle.
3. Release positive stop locking lever. Tighten
miter handle.
4. If the desired angle is one of the nine positive
stops, release the positive stop locking lever,
making sure the lever snaps into position, and
then secure by tightening the miter handle.
5. If the miter angle desired is not one of the
nine positive stops, simply lock the miter
table into position by turning the miter handle
in the clockwise direction.
