MAKING A COMPOUND (BEVEL) MITER CUT
See Figure 54.
Practice on scrap wood. From the front of the saw,
push the wood to the blade with the miter gage. Do
not use the rip fence.
,_ WARNING: Make sure the blade guard is
lowered over blade and is working properly to
prevent possible injury.
• Set the blade angle and height by loosening the
bevel lock handle and turning the height and bevel
handwheels. Retighten the bevel lock handle.
,_ WARNING: When blade is angled to the left,
the miter gage must be on the right side of the
blade. Otherwise the gage could trap the
workpiece, possibly causing kickback and
resulting in injury.
• Set the wood angle by loosening the miter gage
knob and setting it to the desired angle.
• Retighten miter gage knob.
• Place a support the same height as the top of the
saw table behind the saw for the cut work.
• Make sure the wood is not touching the blade.
• Insert the key and lift the switch to the ON position.
Let the blade build up to full speed.
• Hold the work firmly against the miter gage and
push the miter gage to feed the work into the blade.
• When the work is completed, press the switch off
and remove the key.
