Saw Operations
Miter Cut
A miter cut is made at 0° bevel and any miter angle in the
range from 52° left to 52° right.
The miter scale is cast-in on the base for easy reading.
Positive detents have been provided for fast and
accurate mitering at 0°, 15°, 22.5 °, and 45° left and right.
• There is also a crown molding detent at 31.6 ° (see
Cutting Crown Molding for more information page 65).
• The sliding fence must always be in its full right position,
for maximum support, when making miter cuts (see
Sliding Fence Adjustment, if necessary, page 54).
• For precision settings, use the detent override to lock out
the detent. To adjust for 1/4 ° angles, use the vernier
scale along with the detent override (see Vernier Scale for
details).
