MITER ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
(FIGURE P)
The miter scale assists the user in setting
the desired miter angles from 45° left to
45° right. The miter saw table has nine
of the most common angle settings with
positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°,
and 45°. These positive stops position
the blade at the desired angle quickly
and accurately.
• Lock the cutting head in the down
position by pushing the hold-down
latch (1) in the locking hole.
• Raise the miter table locking lever (2)
to loosen the turn table.
•
Hold the base of the saw arm (3) firmly
and use it to rotate the miter table while
holding the saw base steady.
• You can quickly locate the miter angle
by the stops or clicks.
• Once you set the miter angle you want,
tighten the miter table locking lever (2)
by pushing it down.
