Bevel cut
WARNING:
After setting the blade for a bevel
cut, ensure that the carriage and saw blade will
have free travel throughout the entire range of the
intended cut before operating the tool. Interruption
of the carriage or blade travel during the cutting oper-
ation may result in kickback and serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
While making a bevel cut, keep
hands out of the path of the saw blade. The angle
of the blade may confuse the operator as to the actual
blade path while cutting and contact with the blade
will result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
The saw blade should not be
raised until it has come to a complete stop. During
a bevel cut, the piece cut off may come to rest against
the saw blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating,
the cut-off piece may be ejected by the blade causing
the material to fragment which may result in serious
personal injury.
NOTICE:
When pressing down the handle, apply
pressure in parallel with the blade. If a force is
applied perpendicularly to the turn base or if the pres-
sure 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 pin.
Adjust the bevel angle according to the procedure
3.
explained in the section for bevel angle adjustment.
Then tighten the knob.
4. Secure the workpiece with a vise.
5. Pull the carriage toward you fully.
6.
Switch on the tool without the blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed.
7. Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-
tion while applying pressure in parallel with the blade
and push the carriage toward the guide fence to cut
the workpiece.
When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and
8.
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop
before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
Compound cutting
Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel
angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle
is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be
performed at the angle shown in the table.
Miter angle
Left and Right 0° - 45°
When performing compound cutting, refer to the section
for press cutting, slide (push) cutting, miter cutting and
bevel cut.
Bevel angle
Left and Right 0° - 45°

Cutting base boards
CAUTION:
Make sure to use the horizontal
vise (optional accessory) when cutting the base
board.
CAUTION:
When cutting the workpiece of the
thickness 20 mm or thinner, make sure to use a
spacer block to secure the workpiece.
When cutting the base board in 45° miter angle, engage
the stopper lever to prevent the blade case from con-
tacting the base board. This will keep the clearance
between the base board and the blade case when the
carriage is fully pushed forward.
Refer to the SPECIFICATIONS for base board cutting
capacity.

Cutting crown and cove moldings
Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a compound
miter saw with the moldings laid flat on the turn base.
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.
► Fig.54: 1. 52/38° type crown molding 2. 45° type
crown molding 3. 45° type cove molding
There are crown and cove molding joints which are
made to fit "Inside" 90° corners ((a) and (b) in the figure)
and "Outside" 90° corners ((c) and (d) in the figure.)
