Compound Cutting - Makita GSL02 Manual De Instrucciones

NOTICE:
When pressing down the handle, apply
pressure in parallel with the circular saw blade. If
a force is applied perpendicularly to the turn base or
if the pressure direction is changed during a cut, the
precision of the cut will be impaired.
1. Remove the upper fence on the side that you are
going to tilt the carriage.
2. Unlock the stopper pins so that the carriage can
be elevated and slid freely.
3.
Adjust the bevel angle according to the procedure
explained in the section for bevel angle adjustment.
Then tighten the grip dial.
4. Secure the workpiece with a vise.
5. Pull the carriage toward you fully.
6. Switch on the tool without the circular saw blade
making any contact and wait until the circular saw blade
attains full speed.
7.
Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-
tion while applying pressure in parallel with the circular
saw blade and push the carriage toward the guide
fences to cut the workpiece.
8. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and
wait until the circular saw blade has come to a com-
plete stop before returning the circular saw blade to its
fully elevated position.

performed at the angle shown in the table.

There are two common types of crown moldings and
one type of cove moldings; 52/38° wall angle crown
molding, 45° wall angle crown molding and 45° wall
angle cove molding.
