TO MITER CUT / CROSS CUT
See Figures 25 - 26.
A cross cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece. A straight cross cut is made with the miter table
set at the 0° position. Miter cross cuts are made with the
miter table set at some angle other than zero.
 Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full height.
 Unlock the miter table.
 Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with zero
on the miter scale.
NOTE: You can quickly locate 0°, 15°, 22-1/2°, 31.62°
and 45° left or right as you rotate the control arm. The
miter table will seat itself in one of the detent index points,
located in base.
 Lock the miter table.
 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.

OPERATION
 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.
 Align cutting line on workpiece with edge of saw blade
or laser line.
 Grasp the workpiece firmly with one hand and secure it
against the fence. Use the work clamp, C-clamp, or other
suitable clamp to secure the workpiece when possible.
 Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting
operation just to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
 Grasp the saw handle firmly. Depress the switch lock
with thumb then squeeze the switch trigger. Allow several
seconds for the blade to reach maximum speed.
 Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
 Release the switch trigger and allow the blade to stop
rotating before raising the blade out of the workpiece.
Wait until the blade stops turning before removing the
workpiece from the miter table.
