Miter cutting 6-1/2" base boards – This saw can
miter cut 6-1/2" tall base boards vertically positioned
against the fence at any angle from 0° to 52°. All
angled cuts must be made with the base board
placed on the left side of the table. For certain cuts,
the base board will have to be flipped upside down or
placed with the face side against the fence. Always
use a C-clamp to hold the base board to the fence
before making cuts. NOTE: For cutting standard
base board up to 4-1/4" tall, no special placement is
required and it can be miter cut at any angle left or
right.
