fully lowered position 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 WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS
COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returning
the blade to its fully elevated position.
WARNING:
•
After setting the blade for a bevel cut, before
operating the tool ensure that the carriage
and blade will have free travel through-
out the entire range of the intended cut.
Interruption of the carriage or blade travel during
the cutting operation may result in kickback and
serious personal injury.
•
While making a bevel cut keep hands out of
the path of the 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.
•
The 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
blade. If the blade is raised while it is rotating
the cut-off piece maybe 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 pressure
direction is changed during a cut, the precision of
the cut will be impaired.
•
Before bevel-cutting, an adjustment of the upper
fence and lower fence maybe required. Refer to
the section titled "Guide fence adjustment".
5. 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
"Press cutting", "Slide cutting", "Miter cutting" and
"Bevel cut" explanations.

Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a com-
pound 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. See illustrations.
