OPERATION
BEVEL CUT
See Figures 34 and 35.
A bevel cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece with the blade angled to the fence and
miter table. A bevel cut is made with the miter table
set at the zero degree position and the blade set at an
angle between 0° and 45°.
TO BEVEL CUT WITH YOUR MITER SAW:
■ Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full
height.
■ Lift the miter table clamp.
■ Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with
zero on the miter scale.
■ Push the miter table clamp back down.
Note: You can quickly locate zero on the scale.
The miter table can be seated in one of the built-in
detent stops, located in the miter table frame.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always push the
miter table clamp back down before making a cut.
Failure to do so could result in movement of the
miter table while making a cut.
■ Loosen the bevel lock knob and move the saw
arm to the left to the desired bevel angle.
■ Bevel angles can be set from 0° to 45°.
■ Align the indicator point with the desired angle.
■ Once the saw arm has been set at the desired
angle, securely tighten the bevel lock knob.
■ Place the workpiece flat on the miter table with
one edge securely against the fence. If the board
is warped, place the convex side against the
fence. If the concave edge of a board is placed
against the fence, the board could collapse on the

blade at the end of the cut, jamming the blade.
See Figures 40 and 41.
■ When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding,
support the overhanging end(s) of the stock with a
roller stand or with a work surface level with the
saw table.
■ Align the cutting line on the workpiece with the
edge of saw blade.
■ Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it
against the fence. Use the work clamp or a C-
clamp to secure the workpiece when possible.
See Figure 35.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always keep your
hands outside the no hands zone; at least 3 in.
(8 cm) from blade. Never perform any cutting
operation freehand (without holding workpiece
against the fence). The blade could grab the
workpiece if it slips or twists.
■ Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of
the cutting operation just to make sure that no
problems will occur when the cut is made.
■ Grasp the saw handle firmly, depress the lock-off
button, then squeeze the switch trigger. Allow
several seconds for the blade to reach maximum
speed.
■ Slowly lower the blade into and through the
workpiece.
See Figure 35.
■ Release the switch trigger and allow the saw
blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out
of workpiece. Wait until the electric brake stops
blade from turning before removing the workpiece
from miter table.
