• A "compound cut" is a cross-cut made with the
blade both at a horizontal angle relative to the
fence (at a miter angle) and tilted away from the
vertical position (at a bevel angle).
• A compound cut can be made as either a chop
cut or a slide cut depending on the width of the
workpiece.
• Because it may take several tries to obtain the
desired compound angle, perform test cuts on
scrap material before making your cut.
follow these instructions for
making your compound cut:
1. Extend the base extensions and fences on the
side on which the cut will be made. (See Sliding
Fences and Base Extensions on page 25.)
2. Properly position workpiece. Make sure work-
piece is clamped firmly against the table or the
fence(Figure 35).

structions on page 27 and 28 for miter and
bevel cuts.
