SET THIS BEVEL ANGLE ON SAW
1. Set your saw to the prescribed angles and make a few
trial cuts.
2. Practice fitting the cut pieces together.
Example: To make a four-sided box with 25° exterior angles
(angle "A") (Fig. W), use the upper right arc. Find 25° on
the arc scale. Follow the horizontal intersecting line to
either side to get the mitre angle setting on the saw (23°).
Likewise follow the vertical intersecting line to the top or
bottom to get the bevel angle setting on the saw (40°).
Always try cuts on a few scrap pieces of wood to verify the
settings on the saw.
WARNING: Never exceed the compound mitre limits of
45° bevel with 45° left or right mitre.
Support for Short and Long Pieces (Fig. C, D)
Cutting Short Material
It is advisable to use the length stop
both for batch sawing and for short individual workpieces
of different lengths. The length stop can only be used in
conjunction with a pair of optional guide rails
