Compound Cuts
For compound cutting, adjust slid-
ing fence (Fig. 51, 12) clear of
blade path and guard system.
Before sawing, always check that
there is no interference between
moving and stationary parts of the saw. These miter and
bevel combinations may result in interference between the
sliding and stationary parts of the saw or between the sliding
parts and the work piece.

What's a Compound Cut?
• A "compound cut" is a single cross-cut made with the
saw blade preset at two angles combining a miter angle
(relative to the vertical fence) with a bevel angle (relative
to the horizontal table).
• Miter angles will be with the table rotated away from 0°
and within this saw's range from 52° left to 60° right.
• A bevel angle is when the blade is tilted away from 0°.
This saw's range is from 47° left to 47° right.
• A compound cut can be made as a chop cut or a slide
cut. (See "Chop Cuts" on page 37 or "Slide Cuts" on
page 38.)

Making a Compound Cut
Use clamping position that does
not interfere with operation. Be-
fore switching ON, lower head assembly to make sure
clamp clears guard and head assembly.
Be aware of the path of the saw
blade. Make a dry run with the bat-
tery pack disconnected and the saw switched OFF by con-
ducting a simulated cutting cycle, and observe the pro-
jected path of the saw blade. Keep hands at least six (6)
inches (152mm) away from the projected path of the saw
blade.
Follow these instructions for making your compound cut:
1. Extend the fence (Fig. 51, 12).
2. Properly position workpiece. Make sure workpiece is
clamped firmly against the table (22) or the fence (12).
3. Set miter angles for miter cuts according to the instruc-
tions in "Miter Cuts" on page 39, and set bevel angles
for bevel cuts according to the instructions in "Bevel
Cuts" on page 40.
4. Follow the procedures "Chop Cuts" on page 37 or
"Slide Cuts" on page 38.
5. Wait until saw blade comes to a complete stop before
returning head assembly (Fig. 47, 28) to the raised posi-
tion and then remove workpiece.
Cutting crown molding flat on the table (22) requires com-
pound cuts. See "Cutting Crown Molding" on page 44.
