)% Ensure that the blade guard/spreader is installed.
*% Determine the angle of your cut. If the angle needs
to be very precise, use a protractor to set the miter
gauge to the blade.
+% Place the face of the miter gauge against the edge
of the workpiece and place the bar across the face
of the workpiece. Use the bar as a guide to mark
your cut, as shown in =`^li\,*.
,% Place the miter gauge back into the slot and hold
the workpiece firm against the miter gauge body.
Slide the miter gauge near the blade and adjust the
workpiece so the blade will cut on the waste side of
the line.

=`^li\,+% Miter fence lock levers.
D`k\i=\eZ\
The miter fence provides greater workpiece support than
the miter gauge alone, especially for longer workpieces.
Simply loosen the lock levers shown in =`^li\,+, slide
the miter fence in the needed direction for the cutting
operation, then tighten the levers. Make sure the miter
fence does not contact the blade guard or blade when
moved through its full range of travel.
