TO COMPOUND MITER CUT
See Figures 28 - 29.
Acompoundmitercutisacutmadeusingamiterangleand
abevelangleatthesametime.Thistypeofcutisusedto
makepictureframes,cutmolding,makeboxeswithsloping
sides,andforcertainroofframingcuts.
Tomakethistypeofcutthecontrolarmonthemitertable
mustberotatedtothecorrectangleandthesawarmmust
betiltedtothe correctbevelangle. Careshouldalways
betakenwhenmakingcompoundmitersetupsduetothe
interactionofthetwoanglesettings.
Adjustmentsofmiterandbevelsettingsareinterdependent
withoneanother.Eachtimeyouadjustthemitersettingyou
changetheeffectofthebevelsetting.Also,eachtimeyou
adjustthebevelsettingyouchangetheeffectofthemiter
setting.
Itmaytakeseveralsettingstoobtainthedesiredcut.The
firstanglesettingshouldbecheckedaftersettingthesecond
angle,sinceadjustingthesecondangleaffectsthefirst.
Oncethetwocorrectsettingsforaparticularcuthavebeen
obtained,alwaysmakeatestcutinscrapmaterialbefore
makingafinishcutingoodmaterial.
NOTE:Itmaybenecessarytoadjustthepartialslidingmiter
fencetoensureproperclearancepriortomakingthecut.
 Pulloutthelockpinandliftsawarmtoitsfullheight.
 Loosenthemiterlockknobapproximatelyone-halfturn
andpressthedetentreleasebutton.
 Rotatethecontrolarmuntilthepointeralignswiththe
desiredangleonthemiterscale.
 Releasethedetentreleasebutton,thentightenthemiter
lockknobtosecurethemitertable.
NOTE: Youcanquicklylocate0°,15°,22.5°,31.6°,and
45°leftorrightbyreleasingthedetentreleasebuttonas
yourotatethecontrolarm.Thecontrolarmwillseatitself
inoneofthepositivestopnotches,locatedinthemiter
tablebase.
 Loosenthebevellockknobandmovethesawarmtothe
lefttothedesiredbevelangle.
 Bevelanglescanbesetfrom0°to45°.
 Once thesawarmhasbeen setatthedesired angle,
securelytightenthebevellockknob.
 Recheckmiteranglesetting. Makeatestcutinscrap
material.
 Placetheworkpieceflatonthemitertablewithoneedge
securelyagainstthefence.Iftheboardiswarped,place
theconvexsideagainstthefence.Iftheconcaveedge
ofaboardisplacedagainstthefence,theboardcould
collapseonthebladeattheendofthecut,jammingthe
blade.See figures 32 - 33.
 Whencuttinglongpiecesoflumberormolding,support
theoppositeendofthestockwitharollerstandorwith
aworksurfacelevelwiththesawtable.See figure 30.
