4. Bevel cut
010249
Loosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the
bevel angle (Refer to the previously covered
"Adjusting the bevel angle"). Be sure to retighten
the lever firmly to secure the selected bevel angle
safely. Secure the workpiece with a vise. Make sure
the carriage is pulled all the way back toward the
operator. Switch on the tool without the blade
making any contact and wait until the blade attains
full speed. Then gently lower the handle to the 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.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the blade will move down to
•
bevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep hands out
of path of saw blade.
During a bevel cut, it may create a condition
•
whereby the piece cut off will come to rest against
the side of the blade. If the blade is raised while the
blade is still rotating, this piece may be caught by
the blade, causing fragments to be scattered which
is dangerous. The blade should be raised ONLY
after the blade has come to a complete stop.
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.
Always slide the sliding fence so that it does not
•
interfere any part of the carriage when performing
bevel cuts.
Always remove the sub-fence R so that it does not
•
interfere any part of the carriage when performing
right bevel cuts.

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 angle shown in the
table.

When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press
cutting", "Slide cutting", "Miter cutting" and "Bevel
cut" explanations.
6. Cutting crown and cove moldings
Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a
compound 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.
