fence also has holes to secure an auxiliary fence if
desired.
9. Stationary Fence – Stationary fence is bolted to

sliding fence is removed.
10. Kerf Inserts – Kerf inserts can be adjusted to
different blade widths to minimize workpiece tear-
out.
11. Miter Detent Override – Allows detent action to
be locked out, allowing for micro-adjustments to
any miter angle.
12. Miter Lock Knob – The miter lock knob locks the
miter saw table at any desired miter angle.
13. Miter Detent Lever – The lever releases the table

be adjusted to set the accuracy of its detent
locations.
17. Miter Detents – There are ten (10) miter detent
slots for fast and accurate miter cuts of common
